Thomson looks to Bulgaria

THOMSON has launched a programme into Bulgaria for the first time for summer 2004 after predicting it is set to become the new holiday hot spot.

The new Thomson Summer Sun 2004 brochure features 10 properties on the Black Sea, with flights out of Gatwick and Manchester. Other additions for 2004 include an expanded cruise programme and new long-haul twin-centre holidays.

The majority of Thomson’s 2004 holidays have already gone on sale but brochures will reach travel agents over the next fortnight. Airtours and Thomas Cook’s JMC and Sunset brands launched their 2004 brochures last week, two weeks earlier than normal.
