John Warr, Wendy Wu global sales director, said: “For the last consecutive four months running, Japan has been the most in-demand destination for both 2021 and 2022.
“With its ‘air bridge’ status and backing of the World Health Organisation, there is a confidence in travel for Japan that is unlike any other destination.
“Japan has seen massive investment in infrastructure, services and accommodation over the last few years, in the run up to the 2021 Olympic Games.
“With this now completed and available to visitors, the next two years are the perfect time to visit and to benefit from these new and impressive facilities.”
To learn more about the collection and offers, agents are invited to join a webinar on Tuesday August 18 at 11am. See Wendy Wu’s Facebook page for details.
