Vienna, Austria (July 8, 2026) - Travelive is strengthening its investment in Central Europe with the addition of Nina Heric, an experienced destination leader, further expanding its local expertise and support for travel advisors across the region.
Based in Vienna, Austria, Nina will serve as the Country Manager for Austria & Germany. She brings extensive experience in destination management, product development, and supplier partnerships across Central Europe. Working alongside Travelive's local team in Austria, she will lead the continued growth of Austria by Travelive while driving the next phase of Travelive's development in Germany.
Austria officially joined the Travelive portfolio earlier this year, giving travel advisors direct access to local expertise, destination knowledge, and on-the-ground support. Under Nina's leadership, the destination will continue expanding its portfolio of hotels, experiences, and local partnerships, giving advisors more options for city stays, Alpine escapes, cultural journeys, and multi-country itineraries.
In Germany, her focus will be on building on Travelive's existing Bavaria itineraries and river cruise shore excursions, expanding regional experiences, strengthening supplier partnerships, and laying the foundation for the destination's continued growth within the Travelive portfolio.
"Austria has been an important addition to the Travelive portfolio, and Germany represents a natural next step in our growth across Central Europe," said Panos Chalvantzis, Founder, Chairman & CEO, Travelive. "Nina's leadership allows us to continue investing where it matters most: in local people, local partnerships, and the on-the-ground expertise that helps our travel advisor partners create better journeys for their clients."
"What attracted me to Travelive was the opportunity to help build something for the long term," said Nina Heric. "Austria already has a strong foundation, and Germany has tremendous potential. I'm excited to work alongside our local team to expand both destinations and give travel advisors even more reasons to include them in their clients' journeys."
Nina's appointment marks another step in Travelive's continued investment in fully owned local teams across Europe, ensuring travel advisors benefit from stronger destination expertise, trusted local partnerships, and seamless support wherever their clients travel.
