Promotional carrots for tourists
The June school holidays are around the corner and travel agencies have stepped up efforts to entice Singaporeans to travel to Japan.
Here are some of the Japan travel promotions lined up:
- Travel agent JTB is offering free-and-easy packages to popular locations in Japan such as Tokyo, Hokkaido, Osaka and Kyushu. Mr Eddie Ung, JTB's manager of outbound leisure, said that Tokyo remains the most popular. Tour packages to Tokyo (including a two-night stay and flights on Singapore Airlines) are now being offered at $388. The promotion ends on May 30. At its lowest, a similar package cost only $148.
- Travel agent Chan Brothers has also offered attractive tour deals, like the 5 Days Japan Alpine Allure 1-for-1 at $1,688 for two persons, and the 7 Days Hokkaido Passion at $1,488, usually priced at $1,988.
- Mr Wyne Png, business manager of H.I.S. International Travel, also noted that many online buying websites like Groupon are drumming up interest in Japan tours.
- Changi Airport Group will partner the Japan National Tourism Organisation through a promotional campaign to support travel agencies and airlines promoting travel to Japan.
