Portugal’s national tourist office has teamed up with Travel Weekly to create a training video aimed at helping agents sell winter holidays to Madeira and the Azores – and there are two holidays to these island archipelagos up for grabs to agents who watch the webinar and answer the questions at the end.
Madeira and the Azores remain on the roll of destinations exempt from Foreign Office advice against travel to Portugal, and were also included on the list of quarantine-free travel corridors for holidaymakers from England, Wales and Northern Ireland (although Scottish travellers would need to self-isolate on their return).
To give agents an introduction to these destinations’ key selling points along with an update on Covid-19 entry requirements, Turismo de Portugal – along with partners from regional tourist boards the Madeira Promotion Bureau and Azores Promotion Board – has created a training video aimed at UK agents.
