FLAG Choice Hotels has launched a range of touring guides to help agents and operators plan itineraries for clients interested in flydrive holidays to Australia.
The introduction of the state touring guides, which work alongside the Flag HotelPass scheme, follows an increase in demand for Australian flydrives. Flag Choice Hotels said the trend is a result of an increase in the number of second-time visitors to the region.
The guides provide a colour-coded breakdown of FLAG Choice Hotels’ international brands – Clarion, Quality and Comfort – as well as Australia’s Flag brand. Each of the seven guides gives information on a different region, New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Victoria, the Northern Territory and Tasmania. Attractions are listed with maps, driving distance charts and recommended itineraries.
Flag Choice Hotels regional sales and marketing manager UK, Scandinavia and Africa Madeleine Elliott said: “More and more independent travellers are choosing to flydrive. We think these guides show our commitment to working with the trade by suggesting new ideas for itineraries to support this development.”
