Creative Holidays’ 2012 Thailand program is currently being rolled out to travel agents across Australia featuring a fresh new look, a clearer layout, a huge range of new properties, three new extended tours and more value adds, bonus offers and upgrade deals than ever before.
The 2012 Thailand program showcases a comprehensive range of accommodation, touring, and sightseeing options with dedicated sections covering Phuket, Patong, Karon and Kata, Khao Lak, Phi Phi Island, Krabi and Koh Lanta, Bangkok, Chiang Mai and the Golden Triangle, Pattaya, Hua Hin and Koh Samui.
Paul McGrath, managing director, Creative Holidays said, “Our Thai program is consistently one of our top performers and we expect 2012 to be no different. The new brochure has been carefully re-designed to make selling Thailand even easier. For example, we’ve divided Phuket into areas – Patong, Karon, Kata and Secluded Phuket Hotels – each with its own map, making it simpler to identify the best region and property to suit individual client needs.
“We’ve also contracted more than 30 new properties in Phuket, Bangkok, Koh Samui and Koh Phangan offering more choice and greater flexibility than ever before.
“Some of the new properties in our portfolio include the five-star Anantara Phuket Villas, part of our Secluded Phuket range, the four-star Imperial Queenspark ideally located on Bangkok’s famous Sukhumvit Road and the three and half-star Mercure Samui Fenix in Koh Samui and Centara Pariya Resort and Villas on the beach at Koh Phangan.
“One of the key trends we’ve seen developing is travellers beginning to venture further afield from the traditionally popular areas like Phuket. Our new accommodation choices and extended touring options, such as the five-night Old Kingdoms of Thailand, one-night Elephant Hills Jungle Safari and two-night Trekking Chiang Mai, have been included to satisfy this growing demand.
“We suggest agents encourage their clients to get out and explore beyond the favoured hotspots and discover more cultural experiences. Perhaps suggest building a visit to Chiang Mai and Northern Thailand into the itinerary. With great options in our 2012 program for travellers to experience a different side of Thailand we predict these areas will start to see growth in 2012, and beyond.
“We’ve also negotiated a huge range of bonus night deals and upgrade offers so the trade can offer their clients the best value. Just call and ask our reservations team what bonus offers or deals we have available.”
