Shackleton International, Ltd. July 2003 marked the merger Frontiers International Travel and Shackleton International Ltd, into a new joint business -- Fleming Fitzgerald and Associates.
This was a natural marriage of two closely related businesses that had already worked together for many years. It brought the great strengths of the retail travel brand of Frontiers together with the
portfolio of Shackleton properties.
Founded in 2001, Shackleton International Ltd, a UK-based business, owns and operates luxury fishing lodges in the world's finest locations. To date Shackleton has three premier international fishing properties including Lake Rotoroa Lodge in New Zealand, Mangrove Cay Club in the Bahamas and Bristol Bay Lodge in Alaska.
The two businesses continue as separate brands but have combined systems for improved marketing and operating efficiency to the benefit of both brands and the new business as a whole. Frontiers still concentrates on customer sales and service to ensure that the best lodges are recommended to clients and that their trips run smoothly from start to finish. Shackleton's objective is to manage and improve its existing collection of first-rate lodges.
The way in which we deal with clients, agents and suppliers will not change. First-rate service in all aspects of the businesses has been and will remain the driving force behind Frontiers and Shackleton as well as the newly created company.
"Fishing was great. Barry & Cathy Beck were superb hosts and their contribution to making the week memorable was immense. Their patience and guidance with the group was a credit to Frontiers." - J.A., Auckland, New Zealand
