Flight Centre’s New Specialist Store Takes Off

Flight Centre is pleased to announce the launch of its new dedicated Round the World specialist team. The first of its kind in the New Zealand market, the new Round the World store focuses solely on providing customers with intricate round the world airfares and travel options.

While many businesses are pulling back during these uncertain financial times, Flight Centre continues to expand its specialist offerings, ensuring New Zealanders receive the best value for their dollar.

Flight Centre spokesperson, Marie Pilkington, said there was a gap in the market for a dedicated store that could provide Kiwis with extensive round the world ticketing knowledge.

“Our new specialist team are all experts in planning and booking around the world journeys for those travelling on a budget, looking for something different, want a slice of luxury or planning to indulge in a myriad of destinations.

“Airlines offer a range of round the world tickets, however it can be confusing for the consumer to find the right type of ticket to suit their needs and that’s where our experienced team can provide advice on what can be quite detailed itineraries.

“Round the world tickets can provide a more cost effective way of travelling to a number of destinations. Our new dedicated team of round the world consultants have the knowledge in this area and can potentially save Kiwi travellers thousands of dollars,” Ms Pilkington said.
