Today’s Throwback Thursday post highlights a handful of photos from the 1980s, during which the National Passenger Traffic Association (NPTA), as GBTA was known back then, officially became the National Business Travel Association (NBTA) in 1989.
In honor of our 50th anniversary of Convention, we’re sharing a few photos from the ‘60s and ‘70s, during which GBTA was initially founded as the National Passenger Traffic Association (NPTA) in 1968.
We kicked off our Throwback Thursday (#TBT) posts celebrating the upcoming 50th Anniversary of GBTA Convention with a post on the very beginnings of GBTA – or NPTA as it was known then. Today we learn more about the Association’s past and what NPTA looked like throughout the 1970s.
This August in San Diego, GBTA will host its 50th Annual Convention. We are excited to celebrate this milestone with all of you. Leading up to Convention, we will be featuring Throwback Thursday (#TBT) posts every week on the GBTA Blog sharing pieces of history from the annual Convention, the travel management industry and general travel history. All of these pieces of history have helped the travel industry and GBTA Convention become what they are today.
