The UK and Europe On Show

27 October 2011

The UK and Europe On Show

With rugby fever coming to an end, Kiwis turn their focus to travel with New Zealand’s largest retailer, Flight Centre, noticing a spike in enquiry to travel to the UK and Europe.

Kiwis have been waiting for the specials to be released and this week has seen all earlybird airfares and packages on show.

Every year a significant number of Kiwi’s travel to the UK and Europe, visiting family and friends or as part of their own overseas experience and earlybird airfares provide Kiwi’s great value for their 2012 travel, taking advantage of the European summer.

Flight Centre New Zealand’s executive general manager, Mike Friend, said that the demand for international travel remains strong with a focus over the past few days on the UK and Europe.

“Kiwi’s have been waiting for these earlybirds to be released before planning their travel in 2012. We have had a huge number of enquiries particularly regarding tours throughout the UK and Europe, as they are a great way to see a number of countries in a small amount of time and can suit every budget.

“For the best earlybird airfares talk to an expert. Long-haul travel requires stopovers and there are many factors to consider – stopover destination, airline choice and value for money - take the opportunity to speak to someone who can manage your time and budget so you get the most out of your next trip.”

To coincide with the UK and Europe season, Flight Centre is holding its annual Discover Europe travel show across the country in October and November, giving kiwis the opportunity to book great value holiday packages and airfares in one place.
