The Maine Tour Connection
offers a
unique opportunity to increase your group business, particularly
during mid-week and shoulder seasons here in the Northeast.
Our 2013 tour package development is in full swing and we need your
rates as soon as possible. Not just your best wholesale group rates,
but also a commitment to TMTC that you will provide us with your best
services. With the varying economic factors we are all enduring, now
is the time to work together. We are requesting all providers hold
rates for 2013.

Multiple Reservations
-
TMTC needs your lowest rates to package and
to sell competitive tour product for 2013 to wholesale tour operators.
TMTC’s value to your establishment can be multiple reservations at no
direct cost to you. Include your brochure, menus, directions, and any
other pertinent information to assist us in tour planning. Rates to
TMTC must be at least 10% lower than your published tour operator
rates.
|
TMTC is an active member
of National Tour Association, American Bus Association, Pennsylvania
Bus Association and the International Motorcoach Group. We also
attend the National Bank Travel and African American Travel annual
conventions to promote tours to the Northeast. “Lobster Lady”™
Jeanne M. McGurn serves on numerous tour and travel industry boards
and committees offering additional exposure in the tour and
travel marketplaces. |
Packaging
Partners
- If you were to tally the cost of tradeshows,
travel, memberships etc., you would see that our competitive request
for rates and comps is minimal. TMTC is an additional sales
person for you at no direct cost! To be a packaging partner with The
Maine Tour Connection does not cost you anything
except your lowest rates. TMTC can sell dates according to your
availability and calls you for status prior to making reservations.
Let us know of any "hot dates" and need periods you have open and we
will try to steer groups towards your slower dates. TMTC operates most
of its tours from May - October, with occasional holiday and special
event trips in the off-season.
