EasyJet Holidays to increase agent commission in new year
EasyJet holidays is boosting agent commission in the new year after being ‘blown away’ by support since launching through the trade in August.
The operator is offering an additional 2% to all trade agents for two weeks from 4-19 January.
The commission will apply to holidays with departure dates from 1 April 2021 to 26 March 2022 and will be paid on invoice.
There are no targets or minimum sales volumes needed in order to receive the commission.
EasyJet Holidays Head of Distribution Brad Bennetts said the company wanted to ‘give something back’ to the trade after a ‘challenging 2020’.
"It’s been a tough year for the travel industry, and we recognise the challenges our trade partners have faced," he said.
"We only launched to trade in August and we’ve been blown away by the response and support we’ve seen so far. We want to support trade agents at a time when it matters most, so we’re delighted to offer an extra 2% commission during the key turn of year period.
"We’re really looking forward to continuing our successful partnership with the trade in 2021 and helping many more people enjoy well-earned holidays."
The operator is also offering discounts of £100 per person on all summer 2021 beach holidays of seven days duration or more.
