In the 1970s, Antonino Amuro, born in 1940, began his career in Sorrento’s travel agencies, learning the secrets of the tourism industry. Before long, he became a representative for the British tour operator CIT, laying the foundation for his future.
In 1975, he realized his dream by founding Executive Travel Service, specializing in travel between Italy and Scandinavia. A partnership with Air France transformed ETS into a generalist tour operator, expanding its destinations to include France, the United States, and Polynesia. Despite its growth, ETS remained focused on welcoming to Italy tourists from around the world.
ETS expanded further with offices in Bari, Rome, Paris, and Lugano, while Antonino passionately continued to oversee the family’s hotels. His final significant act was the acquisition of the Hotel Plaza in Sorrento, a symbol of his optimism and vision.
Antonino was a man of enthusiasm and passion, capable of building a legacy that continues to inspire.
