This month, our newsletter features interesting alternate travel possibilities during the winter season for travelers that are looking for something other than a tropical getaway.
One of TI’s newest destinations, New Orleans, is a great example. Of course, the Crescent City is famous for its year-round festivity, its Cajun/Creole cooking and its musical heritage. Everyone seems to have fun in New Orleans every time, but only in winter can your clients take part in Mardi Gras – the citywide party to end all parties.
This month TI is also featuring “winter in Europe” promotions in both this newsletter and on the website. Winter is a great time to take advantage of significantly lower rates and no lines at great museums and cultural sites. Also, there are great seasonal events like the beautiful European Christmas markets, Carnival in Venice and, of course, terrific theater in London. Short stay three/four day weekend getaways to major European capitals are both popular and easy.
Finally, don’t forget that Travel Impressions now sells complete ski packages (including lift tickets) to the most popular resort areas in the U.S. and Canada. As always, for those clients looking for that warm weather winter getaway, TI’s comprehensive product line is unbeatable. Whatever your need, we are ready to help you be successful this winter.
Best regards,
John Hanratty

The Occidental Grand properties, their flagship group of resorts reflect a high level of luxury and

experience. Guests are welcomed with private check-in and check-out reception area, and are

For your clients that demand the pinnacle of luxury, I would recommend the Royal Hideaway
