Story

We are beyond excited to announce that Flight Centre are hosting the largest charity event in FCUK history, and you’re invited to be at the heart of it.

On May 7th, we’re taking over the docks for a high-octane, adrenaline-pumping Dragon Boat Race! We’re bringing together the best of the best from across the business—including Scott Dunn, Global Touring, and Iglu—for a day of fierce competition and serious fun.

From this we have assembled the best in the business, hearts of lions, Sir Steve Redgrave apprentices and Tom's of tomfoolery. Names include Mr Alexander Richard Reed Machell - Cornwalls finest rower (maybe.. maybe not)

After the racing madness, we’ll crown the champions and celebrate with a free BBQ! There is a bar on site for those who wish to celebrate or drown sorrows.
