The Executive Traveller Story
Celebrating seventeen years from 2003-2020
Executive Traveller Magazine was created to facilitate the business of travelling for top executives and affluent travellers and continues to do so to date.
Behind the inspiration and hard work is an enthusiastic writer and a keen facilitator…
“When Executive Traveller reached its tenth anniversary in 2013, the achievement made me reflect on what motivated me to create the magazine. A decade plus seven now, and I marvel at our accomplishments while looking forward to the new challenges ahead.”
Lyssiemay Annoh
Editor-in-Chief, Executive Traveller Magazine
Our Editor-in-Chief, Lyssiemay Annoh made travelling her business from a very tender age. She was lucky to follow her father, an ambitious railwayman, around the globe on business and loved every minute of it. Being the most senior executive of the company that he worked for, so the family did not have to queue or wait for luggage. They waited in VIP lounges while eager staff checked them through customs, immigration and through gates into the safe world of yesterday.
As Lyssiemay developed in life she also found herself in the world of travel, this time in business aviation; She liked working with service providers such as hotels, car rental companies, concierges and all those who make the wheel turn in the world of corporate and affluent travel. She knew that this was the kind of travel that she would like to shout about. For Lyssiemay, travel had to be fun and seamless. Whether it is for business or leisure, why should travelling be a struggle of back aches and a scrum for seats? Security has changed things a bit and makes us leave home longer than we should but when meticulously planned, travel can still be fun and wonderfully comfortable.
It is for her belief in productivity and travel that gave birth to Executive Traveller Magazine. Her message to affluent, corporate, and executive travellers was that if you feel tired and uncomfortable on journey, you do not perform well to secure that deal.
Practicality and comfort are all that travelling is about and everyone, if even it is for only once, should endeavour to enjoy the best that travel has to offer and may it always be available to travellers!
How it all began….
