Evans has a background in the travel industry, where he worked for companies including Saga Holidays, Airtours/My Travel Group, First Choice and Holiday Hotels. lowcostholidays’ former headquarters were located in East Grinstead, before relocating to offices just outside Gatwick Airport, in summer 2011. The brand then moved its business to Palma de Mallorca, Spain, in November 2013. Following the move Evans responded to criticism, saying, “We are centralising our lowcostholidays business and simplifying our structure…having a single trading entity, through which all of our holidays are sold, means we can achieve significant efficiencies and cost savings.” The brand’s German site was the first to launch internationally, followed by a further nine European sites. In June 2013, lowcostholidays launched its single parent holidays campaign, offering lone parents cheaper rates on selected hotels when travelling with children. The same month, their Secret Hotels programme launched, allowing customers access to cheaper beach breaks by booking an undisclosed hotel. In early 2014, lowcostholidays expanded further, opening offices in Atlanta, USA and Sydney. The brand now operates in 13 different countries, with websites in the UK, Ireland, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, Australia and the USA. As lowcosttravelgroup reached its 10th Anniversary, it forecasted it would provide holidays for over 2.5 million customers in 2014. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lowcostholidays」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
