Flight Centre Travel Group releases FY26 half-year financial results

Flight Centre Travel Group (FLT) has reported an AUD$124.6m underlying profit before tax (UPBT) for the half year ended Dec. 31, 2025.

The result represents four per cent growth on the prior corresponding period’s AUD$119.7 million adjusted UPBT, exceeding expectations of a broadly flat first half. Statutory first-half profit before tax was AUD$87 million.

Canada delivered growth across both corporate and leisure businesses during the half, positioning the operation to surpass last year’s record performance.

Leisure demand shifted away from U.S. destinations toward domestic, European and long-haul markets, while Corporate Traveller and FCM Travel secured new corporate accounts and maintained volumes across SME and multinational enterprise segments.

Chris Lynes, Managing Director of Flight Centre Travel Group Canada, said that: “The Canadian business is gaining share in corporate travel and benefiting from sustained leisure demand, even as travel patterns evolve. That momentum positions us to deliver another record year.”

During the period, the Canadian operation expanded its SME capability through the launch of Corporate Traveller’s Float integration, strengthening its payments offering for growing businesses.

The company is also advancing plans for targeted retail expansion in Canada, underscoring its confidence in long-term demand and continued market share growth.
