Best/Favorite Program Experience: Coordinating very last minute and extremely complicated transportation services a few days after 9/11 for a client that was in San Diego for a large National Sales Meeting during 9/11. The attendees were from all over the country and they desperately wanted to get home. CTC chartered airplanes into Chicago and Milwaukee, where we greeted the guests and then put them on all types of transportation heading to St. Louis, Cincinnati, Grand Rapids, Albany, Hartford, Boston, Baltimore, Newark, and New York City.
