Thomson is introducing more flexible packages in a move away from the traditional seven and 14-night durations.

Ten and 11-night holidays are being made available for summer 2009 to a range of destinations including Skiathos, Thessaloniki, Halkidiki and Antalya.

The operator is also expanding its long haul offering by introducing Cuba as part of summer 2009 first edition brochures which go on sale today (Thursday).

A new hotel concept called Sensatori, exclusive to the Thomson Premier collection, is added in Riviera Maya in Mexico, in addition to the first such resort opening this year on Lyttos Beach in Crete.

The inclusive deluxe spa hotel will have jumbo contemporary suites as standard complete with hot tubs, as well as a range of dining options, a mojito lounge and roof garden lounge.

A range of new destinations have been added to the Platinum brand including Aruba; Boa Vista, Cape Verde; Agadir, Morocco; Ibiza; Pula, Croatia; Samana, Dominican Republic; and Sri Lanka.

Travellers on Premier Collection holidays have priority check in, increased luggage allowance (23kg of checked in luggage and 7kg of hand luggage), complimentary reserved seating, priority drop off and free day before check-in at Gatwick and Manchester and complimentary in flight meals.

A La Carte holidaymakers also have free use of airport lounges at certain UK airports

Five long haul destinations are added to the Faraway Shores programme: Holguin and Varadero in Cuba; Samana in the Dominican Republic; Aruba in the Caribbean, Sri Lanka, as well as Boa Vista in Cape Verde.
