Travel Agent - June 23, 2008 - (Page TA-52) DESTINATIONS CARIBBEAN BRIEFS PLEASANT HOLIDAYS OFFERS New Caribbean Incentives Travel Agent spoke with Jack Richards, president and CEO of Pleasant Holidays, recently and learned the tour operator’s travel agent incentive program, which was first launched in 2005, has hit the 20,000-member mark. Travel Agent called Richards to talk about Pleasant Holidays’ and Distinguished Resorts’ new offerings, which include double trip points for all bookings from now through August 31. It was also announced that agents will now be receiving extra incentive for group bookings. Agents will earn a free three-night stay at a Caribbean hotel for booking 10 or more rooms for a five-night minimum stay at one of the company’s Caribbean properties. To date, Richards told us the most popular destinations that agents have booked in the Caribbean are the Bahamas, the Dominican Republic and Jamaica. “Of those, I’d have to say that the Bahamas is somewhat of a surprise since we are a West Coast company and the Bahamas typically draws people from the East,” he told us.
