The Artisan Travel Company is offering guaranteed package prices for next year’s holidays.
(TRAVPR.COM) UNITED KINGDOM - August 31st, 2016 - With both HSBC and UBS predicting sterling dropping to a record low against overseas currencies, it’s hard to know how to plan ahead at the moment. However, to help their customers plan and budget for next year’s holiday in this post-Brexit world, The Artisan Travel Company – made up of Artisan Travel, The Aurora Zone and Activities Abroad – is guaranteeing a capped price for its package holidays departing next summer and winter (2017/18).
The company has set provisional prices on its three websites, although departure dates and travel itineraries are yet to be confirmed. Anyone booking a package holiday now will be guaranteed those rates, whatever happens to sterling in the meantime. If the price drops then customers will be charged at the lower rate and if, when the departure date is confirmed, it doesn’t suit their plans, they can cancel with a full refund.
Only if flight surcharges are applied (when fares are released) will the price rise.
This is a great opportunity for agents to make early bookings for next year. With a guarantee in place the customer can’t lose.
Amy Walkington-Gray, TATC’s sales manager says, “With all the uncertainty around the pound and travel prices for next year, we hope this offer provides a little bit of stability. It should also help agents persuade their clients to make a commitment to next season’s travel plans. It’s a win-win for agent and customer alike and a perfect chance to get early bookings on the board.”
