Many in the industry were deeply saddened to hear of the death of Megan Fineberg , Owner of Constantiaberg Travel. After a long battle with an autoimmune disease, Fineberg passed away on Tuesday, August 6, shortly before her 60th birthday.

Sharon Fergusson , Sales Executive of Rogers Aviation, and a close friend of Finberg, said Megan was well-respected and well-loved in the travel industry, both in Cape Town and Johannesburg.
She was a true travel agent who went out of her way to assist her clients no matter what timeoftheday. She was a kind and generous person always willing to support her travel colleagues, said Fergusson.
Mary Reynolds , CEO of Reynolds Travel, was also a close friend of Fineberg and said she was one of the most caring and creative leisure travel consultants in the industry.
