Flight Centre UK is launching
its first dedicated Round the World team who will specialize in selling round
the world itineraries for the Flight Centre and Student Flights retail brands.
The division is due
to launch in May 2006 and the company is currently looking to recruit four
people who have the knowledge and experience to be able to put together these
often complicated fares. The team will be based at the company’s new Student
Flights store in Marble Arch that opened on April 3, 2006.
Jared Baker, head
of retail at Flight Centre said, “It is important for Flight Centre to have a
dedicated team selling round the world fares as this market is becoming
increasingly important for us as a long haul specialist. These days round the
world trips are not just limited to gap year students, there are also people in
their 30s and 40s taking career breaks who will benefit from advice from well
traveled people who work for a global company.”
