March 31, 2010



Flight Centre, New Zealand's largest travel retailer, is preparing for increased bookings to Mexico in 2010 as the destination rises in popularity.

Flight Centre's PR manager, Marie Pilkington, believes Mexico is going to hit the must-do travel lists of many Kiwis as it has wide appeal and provides great value for money.

"Mexico offers a diverse holiday option for Kiwis. From all-inclusive resorts to adventure touring, Mexico offers something slightly different that can suit all markets and budgets," Ms Pilkington said.

Flight Centre Limited's acquisition of GoGo Worldwide Vacations, the largest wholesaler of travel to the Caribbean and Mexico in the US, means Flight Centre New Zealand is now able to offer one of the widest range of Mexico holidays to this market.

Flight Centre's boutique wholesale division in New Zealand, Escape Travel, has produced a dedicated 28 page stand-alone Mexico brochure, released this week, to prepare for what it believes will be the next 'in' destination.

"The new brochure will provide new inspiration for Kiwi travellers and we believe it will create even more interest around this increasingly popular destination.

"Mexico perked the interests of many Kiwis over the past two years; however the outbreak of swine flu in 2009 meant tourism to the country stalled. Now this has largely been contained, Mexico is back on traveller's wish list," Ms Pilkington said.

The surge in popularity of all-inclusive style resorts means budgeting for holidays has become easier and family holiday options have expanded.

Mexico offers a wide range of destinations that offer all inclusive packages that comprise of accommodation, meals, snacks, drinks (including alcohol and soft-drinks), entertainment, activities, kids clubs, gratuities and taxes.

"All inclusive holidays such as cruising or resort getaways are on the rise and Mexico provides a huge range for both these options.

"Mexico's close proximity to the United States of America means it's a perfect destination for Kiwis to enjoy as part of their California holiday," Ms Pilkington.

Highlights of the new dedicated Mexico brochure include Cancun, Isla Mujeres, Riviera Maya, Cozumel, Acapulco, Los Cabos, Ixtapa, Zihuatanejo, Mazatlan, Puerto Vallarta, Riviera Nayarit and cultural cities such as Mexico City, Guadalajara, Oaxaca, Merida and Haciendas.
