Renowned as the ‘Asia Specialist’, New Horizons Holidays (www.newhorizons.com.au, www.facebook.com/NewHorizonsHolidays) is broadening its product offering, launching its first-ever UK & Europe program. The release of its inaugural UK & Europe brochure transforms the travel landscape with New Horizons Holidays the first West Australian based wholesaler to sell Europe in more than two decades.
Offering the trade a comprehensive range across the key destinations of London, regional UK, Dublin, Paris, Nice, Rome, Florence, Venice, Madrid, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Munich, Vienna, Frankfurt, Zurich, Athens, Prague and Istanbul, New Horizons Holidays’ European portfolio has been carefully designed to deliver choice, flexibility and great value in a straight forward, simple to book format.
Chris Evans, managing director, New Horizons Holidays said, “We are very excited to be leading the way on the west coast as the first WA-based wholesaler to sell UK and Europe product in approximately 25 years. We are focused on delivering to the trade an exciting repertoire of new destinations, available from all exit points of Australia, which they can book with confidence knowing we are a tried, tested and trusted company.
“The new brochure, which has been rolled out to agents throughout March, showcases a broad selection of accommodation options, from luxe and leading design hotels to family-friendly apartments and quality value-packed three-star options. We’ve also negotiated great packages like our current five-night land and air specials which includes return economy airfares with Emirates and five-nights accommodation in a selection of destinations like, Nice, Vienna, London, Paris, Munich or Florence priced from just $2351 (ex Perth) per person (valid for sale until 6 April).
“With a focus on key centres across Europe and the UK, we predict all areas to perform well, especially heading into the European spring and summer and with a number of large events like the London Olympics and the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee driving demand and inspiring travellers.
“We also anticipate the strength of the Australian Dollar to deliver robust results in our premium product range, with fantastic options on offer like The Chesterfield in London’s Mayfair, the five-star design hotel St Martins Lane in Covent Garden, The Westin Europa and Regina overlooking Venice’s Grand Canal or the Shangri-La Hotel Paris, which boasts spectacular views across the City of Lights, to name just a few.
“For travellers looking for value and flexibility we recommend agents suggest apartment-style accommodation. This is another area in which we expect to see a lot of interest, particularly from the family market and, as such, we have worked hard to brochure a broad collection in the hubs of London and Paris like the Citadines Apartment Hotels across Paris, which are priced from just $86 per person, per night (twin share).
“The launch of our UK & Europe program also offers the perfect extension to our product in the Arabian Peninsula, providing agents with a opportunity to secure new bookings and extend others on the back of the huge popularity we’ve experienced in the last 12 months for Dubai, Oman and Abu Dhabi. To help consultants further we have great airfares available ex all ports, delivering travellers the chance to experience the unique fusion of modern wonders and ancient traditions in Dubai with the breathtaking history, culture and magic of Europe.
“To celebrate the launch we are also rewarding consultants with $20 Myer gift cards for every UK and Europe booking over $950 (gross) made before 16 April, 2012.”
