Singapore, 15 June, 2026 – FCM Travel, one of the world’s largest travel management companies, today announced the appointment of Vicki Parris as Managing Director, Asia. In this role, Parris will lead FCM’s regional operations across Asia, overseeing the strategic direction and continued growth of the business as corporate travel demand across the region accelerates.

Parris brings nearly two decades of travel industry experience to the role, with a deep knowledge of the Asia Pacific region built across an impressive career defined by operational excellence, customer experience transformation and people development. She joined Flight Centre Travel Group in 2004 and held leadership roles across New Zealand, India and Asia before joining FCM Travel Asia in 2016. Since then, she has served in a series of senior positions spanning operations and programme management, most recently as Managing Director for FCM Japan and South East Asia.

Her contributions to the industry have been recognised both within and beyond FCM – she has been named in the GBTA WINiT Top 40 Global Women in Travel and inducted into the Flight Centre Travel Group Global Hall of Fame.

“Vicki is exactly the kind of leader FCM needs at the helm in Asia,” said Melissa Elf, Global Managing Director, FCM. “Her track record of building strong, customer-focused operational teams across some of our most dynamic markets speaks for itself. Asia represents a significant growth opportunity for FCM, and Vicki’s breadth of experience across multiple markets and functions will be instrumental in realising that potential for both our clients and our business.”

I am thrilled to be stepping into this role at such an exciting time for FCM in Asia. The region is incredibly diverse and fast-moving, and I look forward to working with our teams on the ground to deliver the best possible travel programme experience for our clients. Building the right operational foundations to support our customers is something I care deeply about, and I’m energised by the opportunity ahead.
