She began her career as a European air specialist in Vancouver, eventually becoming supervisor and then manager of the air department for a local wholesaler.
A personal trip to Africa sparked a new passion, shifting her focus to developing custom-designed African safaris; tailor-made programs for each guest, considering budget and interests, while continuing her supervisory work in the air department. Over 12 years, she escorted 24 FAM trips to Africa – experiences that hardly felt like work. When the company closed following the owner’s retirement, it marked the end of an unforgettable chapter.
In 2017, Angela joined the OTI family, which was contracted to serve as the air department for Scenic Cruises and Emerald Cruises – a transition that felt like a natural fit. Working in a high-pressure call center and booking hundreds of flights each month has been both demanding and deeply rewarding. From providing the initial quote to supporting guests through flight disruptions and everything in between, Angela and the Scenic Air Department team earned a reputation as the best in the business. The team excels in complex itineraries, file management, attention to details and attentive service, resulting in very satisfied customers.
The contract with Scenic and Emerald concluded at the end of 2025, but Angela and the team at Fly OTI will continue doing what they do best – seamless flight arrangements with personal attention.
