FIVE major operators are set to sell stock through new
direct-sell digital travel channel Simply Holidays.
Due to be launched on December 19, Simply Holidays has
signed up Thomson, First Choice and Kuoni and is confident of securing product
from JMC and Airtours.
Simply Holidays, part of shopping channel Simply
Shopping, is giving operators two month’s free programming as an incentive to
sign up.
Simply Holidays project
director and former Thomson Travel Group director Jim Riley said the fact that
customer enquiries will be handled by staff at the operators’ own call centres
was another attraction of the channel.
