Jet2holidays supports independent agents with exclusive discounts
Jet2holidays is supporting independent agents with an exclusive promotion offering their customers £110 per person off all package holidays booked by 1 March. That’s £10 more than Jet2holidays’ online discount.
The promotion applies to all Jet2holidays, Jet2CityBreaks, Jet2Villas, Indulgent Escapes and Vibe by Jet2holidays bookings for travel up to November 2022.
It is part of Jet2’s Partnership 2 Success strategy, which includes its ‘Celebrity Come Book With Me’ campaign’ designed to help independent agents boost their social media presence.
Jet2holidays has teamed up with four celebrities who are posting video messages on the its Instagram and Facebook pages talking about ‘the many award-winning benefits of booking with the package holiday specialist’.
Agents who like the posts and comment with their ABTA number get the chance to win a personalised video message recorded by the celebrity, which they can then post on their own social media profile to engage with customers.
The winning agency also gets to take part in a virtual meet and greet with the celebrity. The first winner of the campaign, which will run until April, was HD Travel in Northwich, who won a recorded message by X Factor star Chico! This week’s campaign is already live, with singer Brian McFadden appearing as this week’s celebrity.
Alan Cross, Head of Trade Sales at Jet2holidays, said: "These may be unusual times, but that means that the Jet2holidays trade team will work even harder to support agents through our partnership approach.
"In the spirit of that partnership we have spent a lot of time listening to what agents want, and as well as fantastic offers for customers, we know they want to drive awareness and engagement including via social media. That’s why we are giving agents the chance to add a bit of showbiz to their social media profiles, and we know that Jet2holidays Celebrity Come Book With Me is already a big hit with independent travel agents."
