G Touring notes "phenomenal" start to 2024 ahead of "ambitious" trade plans

Just You and Travelsphere both saw sales exceed expectations and set the course for a record year across the G Touring group.

March recorded the biggest sales contribution since before the pandemic for both brands, with Just You and Travelsphere far exceeding their sales targets.

Average booking value from trade partners neared 20% more than that of direct sales: long-haul destinations making up three of the top five destinations sold helped bolster booking value for agents.

Tom Morgan, who joined the group in February, described the start of the year as "phenomenal," continuing: "Month on month we have increased our sales thanks to the continued growth in group touring holidays and the exceptional work of our team, led by head of sales Rachel Mould."

The top five destinations by spend for Just You in the first quarter were Italy, Spain, India and Australia; Travelsphere's top sellers were the USA, Canada, Italy, Japan and Croatia.

"Rachel has done a fantastic job throughout peaks to ensure our agent partners have been fully supported. With Jason Kemp and Jasmine Moreton joining the team we are in a robust position to implement our ambitious trade plans to grow both Travelsphere and Just You to a wider audience," Tom concluded.
