The escorted coach tour company has added a ‘find single rooms’ feature to its website while increasing the number of Solo Traveller holidays available.
The new website finder scours across 250 hotels to offer a more efficient and simplified solution for agents to check which tours have suitable availability for solo travellers. The new application shows the total price with single supplement displayed.
Shearings’ head of retail sales, Ashley Dellow, said: “The number of customers choosing to travel solo is increasing year-on-year and we understand that not everyone wants to buddy up and share a room. There is a limited availability on single-occupancy rooms at each hotel and the new ‘find single room’ finder will help agents quickly secure the booking.”
Shearings also offers a dedicated Solo Traveller collection with itineraries across the UK as well as Ireland, Italy, Croatia and France. Due to the increasing demand for solo travel, Shearings has already boosted its Single offering by 40%, with five new tours added this year.
The latest tour to join the collection is the five-day ‘Blenheim Palace, Oxford and Royal Windsor’ Signature self-drive itinerary priced from £995 per person.
