Low cost UK airline, Monarch Holidays, has partnered with hotel wholesaler Tourico to bundle their flights with over 80,000 hotel options worldwide.
The partnership will enable Monarch Holidays to significantly expand its range of European beach holidays and city breaks using Tourico’s worldwide inventory of hotels and exclusive deals, or pre-purchased hotel room blocks.
Richard Francis, managing director of Monarch Holidays, said: “By partnering with Tourico, we’re able to offer our customers a broad range of holiday options to any of the destinations that Monarch serves.
“Tourico’s unique contracting methodology of pre-purchasing large hotel room blocks allows them to secure industry-leading prices that we can now pass on to our customers.”
Neil Emerson, the president of business development in Europe for Tourico Holidays, said: “Tourico has made it a priority over the past several years to increase the number of pre-purchased room blocks in popular European cities such as Barcelona, Lisbon, Rome, Venice, and Stockholm.
“Monarch’s travelers will now have access to this unique hotel inventory, allowing them to save significantly on their hotel reservations – in addition to their flights.”
