Testimonials

The KTA team really value what a whole host of media say about us. Aftrer all, it is our exceptional relationships and contacts that get your brand noticed.

	Lorraine Kelly - TV Presenter "I was lucky enough to work with KTA on a spa health and beauty feature. Every aspect of the shoot was a joy and everyone I dealt with was totally professional and a delight."
	Chris Tarrant - Broadcaster "Thanks for all your help with the promotion last week. Judging by the amount of e-mail, faxes and phone calls this end, our listeners certainly loved the sound of the Maldives. Thanks again to all of you at KTA you were tremendous"
	Francesca Syz, Travel Editor, Psychologies & Suite Talk - Conde Nast Traveller "I have always found the girls at KTA to be highly reactive, quick and efficient with my (often short notice-tight deadline) information requests and good lateral thinkers in terms of coming up with interesting themes and generating story ideas. I would not hesitate to recommend them."
	Nuala Harvey - The Sunday Times Travel Magazine "I have worked with KTA a number of times over the past few years, and have found them to be one of the most professional PR companies working in the travel industry today. Gail and Louise bend over backwards to accommodate journalists' needs, understanding the pressures of deadlines and the requirement for accurate information, quickly delivered. Truth-merchants rather than sales-merchants, they have never let me down. Even better, they are as discerning in their choice of wine and nosh as they are of their clients. Who could ask for more?"
	David Harrison, Award Winning Correspondent - The Sunday Telegraph "I have worked with KTA for over 10 years and have always been impressed by their professionalism and their understanding of what it takes to get a story into the national media. I have found them to be helpful, co-operative and with an intelligent approach to the needs of the national press."
	Victoria Mather, Travel Editor - Vanity Fair "I thought it was terrific and have been talking to everyone in the world about the trip. What impressed me most was the service. Thank you for your kindness."
	Dominic O'Connell, Business Editor - The Sunday Times "KTA is expert at providing a bridge between its clients and the media, having taken the effort to understand both sides and their particular requirements."
	Tom Otley, Editor-In-Chief - Business Traveller "KTA is a very professional operation, always willing and able to respond to last minute requests from journalists. Having seen them work with many other publications, I have been impressed with how they deal with media of all persuasions, from the expert press to general consumer press who perhaps have very little in depth knowledge, in these cases providing the background story as well as the breaking news. Unlike other PR agencies, they also respond well to bad news - ie: when a reader letter complaint is forwarded, or when a request from us requires a lot of work on their part (eg: our annual Cellars in the Sky competition). They are knowledgeable about the travel industry as a whole, and the aviation industry in particular. They have been helpful to all our publications, including the websites."
	Gemma Askham, Features Writer - Cosmopolitan Bride "I know I can always rely on KTA PR to provide up-to-the-second information that's perfectly tailored to our style-savvy readers. With dreamy resorts (and fantastic images, so important!), 'been there, done that' insider knowledge and the friendliest staff, it's always a pleasure to work with KTA."
	Mark Pilling, Editor - Airline Business "Having been the go-to guys in the UK for Qatar Airways and other airlines, we have regular contact with KTA. They are a good, responsive team that helps fix things for us and we appreciate that."
	Andrea Ventress, Deputy Editor - Wedding Magazine "I have worked in travel journalism for over five years now and have always made KTA PR one of the first agencies I contact whenever I'm planning a big feature. Every team member is on-the-ball, efficient and so lovely to deal with. I never have to wait for information and any trip they organise for me is incredible and stress-free. They make my job so much easier."
	Sarah Modlock, Freelance - Spectator, Tatler, Time, Square Mile "I cannot tell you how rare it is to find a PR who is not only a great ambassador for clients but also has a genuine understanding of the media and what journalists need. Gail Palmer is an absolute class act. She has superb knowledge and expertise about her clients and the travel market and because her appreciation of the media is finely tuned, she always adds value and is as proactive as she is professional. Gail is fantastic company on trips and faces everything with genuine charm and a smile. In an ideal world I would love her to be on every trip I take. As with all good firms, the KTA team as a whole stand out because they work hard to deliver all the time. I have lost count of the number of times I have relied on the patience and help of Louise Ferrall, who is also a pleasure to work with."
	Jacqui MacDermott - The Times "I have been on several overseas press trips with KTA over the years, from the depths of the jungle to world-class resorts with white-sand beaches. I never fail to marvel at the smooth-running efficiency of the travel, the well thought-out and challenging itineraries and the superb organisation and after-care. It makes the journalist's job so much easier."
	Carol Hay, Director of Marketing UK & Europe - Antigua & Barbuda Tourism Authority "KTA PR is a team of professionals who bring back the true meaning of the word service. We have often wondered where they find the time and the energy to meet all our deadlines (within budget) and yet provide such a cheerful and efficient service... their support has certainly done a lot for our business and image. A lot more people know who we are and what we do best."
	Denise Marshall, Senior Writer - Daily Express Saturday Magazine "After coordinating three press trips for my publication, KTA have consistently proved efficient, accommodating and committed in assisting with sophisticated destination coverage, ensuring I fulfill my brief in short time frames and linking me up with key figures in the industry. They go that extra mile to ensure you receive a real taste of the location you are visiting and their impressive client range means they can offer a varied range of travel options and experiences."
	Max Kingsley-Jones, Deputy Editor - Flight International "I have dealt with KTA Public Relations over many years and found them extremely effective in arranging access for me to the key people at their clients. Their team understands our needs as a business-to-business publisher, and always provided prompt, polite service."
	Wendy Gomersall, Freelance Writer & Editor "As a freelance travel journalist, it's vital that I can rely on a PR agency to provide accurate, honest and relevant information quickly, to keep me informed about clients' changing profiles and also to spark ideas that complement my areas of interest and expertise so I can secure commissions for features from my varied outlets. I have found that KTA and its staff never fail to fulfil all these requirements with effortlessly efficiency - what's more, they're always a pleasure to deal with, too."
