Olympic slashes prices for summer 2010
Olympic Holidays has slashed most of its prices in its Summer Sun 2010 brochure.
The operator said the majority of prices are lower than this year and new properties have been added.
Commercial director Photis Lambrianides said: "As a key player in the central and eastern Mediterranean, we have negotiated some excellent prices for summer 2010.
"Though the trend nowadays is significantly towards late booking, a substantial portion of the market still prefers to book early and agents can now satisfy this demand."
The 468-page brochure features Greece and its islands, Cyprus, Turkey, Tunisia, Bulgaria, Malta, Croatia, Montenegro and Egypt’s Red Sea Riviera.
Olympic expanded its portfolio this summer with the addition of Malta, Croatia and Montenegro.
Lambrianides said: "We were pleased with the newcomers’ performance in a difficult trading year. With the price reductions for summer 2010, I am optimistic we will do well."
Olympic’s Summer Sun 2010 programme leads in at £225 per person for seven nights’ self-catering at various apartments in Corfu, including Oula Maisonettes and Andreas Studios.
