Kuwait Airways Holiday packages booking on internet next month
Kuwait – Commercial state carrier, Kuwait Airways Corporation (KAC), is set to offer internet booking next month for its holiday packages for the summer, a senior member of staff said here Saturday. Head of the Holidays Department at the airline, Khalaf Al-Manea, told KUNA that the booking for the package tours will be open to travel agencies in June and customers in August.
He also said that the carrier was the first to make such a move in the Middle East. The packages include a Kuwait Airways ticket and hotel accommodation at any one of the airline’s selected destinations.
Al-Manea expected 60 percent of sales to be conducted via travel agencies. He also said that this year’s deals will start earlier in May, due to the short summer holiday period as a result of the Muslims’ holy month of Ramadan which starts in August.
In this regard, closer destinations in Gulf and Middle Eastern countries have been selected for these deals like Alexandria, Sharm El Sheikh and Cairo, in addition to Umra (mini-pilgrimage) in Makkah, Saudi Arabia, which has received a highly unprecedented customer turnout.
The packages will offer lucrative and competitive prices, he said. Al-Manea also expected travel to Europe to increase, due to the drop of the euro and the pound sterling and the end of fears concerning the swine flu epidemic.
The packages will also offer trips to the South East Asia region, with very good deals to countries like Thailand and Malaysia.
Awaiting your best offer trips for Europe / South East etc.
