Welcome to MTPA's UK new and improved monthly newsletter. We have a lot of exciting news to share with you...
 
The Anniversary month of March might have passed but the celebrations are still ongoing throughout the year as Mauritius continues to celebrate its 50th Anniversary of Independence in 2018.
 
This month we have launched the first of two major marketing campaigns to promote Mauritius in the UK, which is a travel agent incentive MTPA is running in partnership with Premier Holidays and British Airways. Here, we are incentivising agents to book Mauritius packages with a chance to win a place on a Mauritius at 50 FAM trip, happening later in the year in September. For more information on this or to enter, please visit www.premierholidays.co.uk/mauritiusfam
 
Finally, the Mauritius UK & Ireland Roadshow is returning in June 2018, visiting four cities with a selection of partners to showcase our wonderful destination to as many agents as we can. Dates and cities are listed below:
 
  • Dublin - Monday 4 June
  • Glasgow - Tuesday 5 June
  • Birmingham - Wednesday 6 June
  • London - Thursday 7 June
 
If you are interested in attending any of these events or would like more information, please email MiriamJ@hillsbalfour.com.
