Gold Medal announces annual mega fam trip

Gold Medal is pulling out all the stops for 2020 with its annual mega fam trip, in association with Qatar National Tourism Council and Qatar Airways.

There will be 36 winning agents, split into four groups, heading either to the Maldives, Zanzibar, Bali or South Africa, before meeting up in Doha, Qatar for a three-night stay and a MEGA Access All Areas ?nale training day packed full of fun.

There are many ways for agents to claim one of the 36 spots on these trips ? with nine agents winning in each of the operator's four regions across the UK & Ireland (Scotland, N. Ireland & North; North West & Yorkshire; Midlands & Wales; and the South). Each region will receive:

  • Two places to the top selling agencies of Qatar Airways flights
  • Two places to the top selling agencies of Qatar room nights
  • Two wild card places to be awarded at random
  • Three fam trip places up for grabs for those who apply

To apply for one of the final three places on each trip, the operator is asking agents to share why they would like a place on this mega fam trip. Including how this trip will help them sell the destination and how will they use their new knowledge to support Gold Medal.

Kerry Gallagher, marketing director for the operator, said: ?This is the first time we?ve asked agents to apply for a place on a fam trip on this scale. It helps ensure we?re giving all agents an equal opportunity to experience a Gold Medal fam trip, allowing them to learn more about a destination and not simply rewarding top sellers.

?Customer interest in Qatar is on the increase for Gold Medal, with room nights up over 90 per cent year on year, so these trips allow 36 agents to discover this growing destination and make the most of this opportunity. With Qatar Airways flying to a huge array of destinations, this trip will showcase the ease of a twin-centre trip, with Doha providing an ideal stopover.?

The incentive runs from till February 2020.

Agents can send their application to win@goldmedal.co.uk or comment on the pinned Facebook post @GoldMedalAgents by February 29, 2020.
