Jet2holidays will hold its eighth annual VIP conference for top performing independent travel agents in Portugal later this year.
The conference, which will take place from 14 to 17 November (a week earlier than originally planned), will be held in Olhos de Água. Last year’s event was held in Leeds.
This year, Jet2 said the focus is ‘on having the courage to grasp every opportunity, with a major emphasis on looking ahead with positivity as international travel continues to bounce back strongly’.
The details were revealed today by CEO Steve Heapy and Head of Trade Alan Cross at a launch event for agency partners in London.
The two said that the conference, which will be Jet2’s biggest ever for independent agents, will give partners ‘the added impetus, knowledge and skills to attract more customers and sell more package holidays to drive business growth’.
They also hinted that this year’s conference could see agents taking part in exciting challenges.
Steve said: “Selling through independent travel agents continues to be at the absolute core of Jet2holidays as a business and we will be using our eighth annual conference to demonstrate how and why.”
Delegates will be flown to Faro in Portugal on chartered flights from Manchester and Newcastle Airports.
Some 350 people are expected to attend.
