Operators attend UKholidays event
PONTINS, Hoseasons and Cresta Holidays were among the 35 domestic tour operators that attended the Holiday Hypermarkets launch of its UK holidays promotion last week.Managing director John Donnelly is expecting at least 90% of the operators present at the so-called UK summit to sign up to the promotion which includes slots on TV screens, point-of-sale material, flyers and entry into a voucher booklet that is to be sent to existing clients.
Donnelly, who is also meeting tourist offices in the next few weeks, said the next stage was to hold one-to-one meetings with interested operators.
Speaking after the meeting, he said he hoped greater co-operation between Holiday Hypermarkets and domestic operators would help increase UK holiday sales to 10% of his overall business over the next six months.
