***Longwood Holidays Launches 2007-08 Israel Brochure***

14 June 2007

Regional specialists Longwood Holidays released their new season Israel brochure, covering the resorts of Tel Aviv, Dead Sea, Jerusalem, Natanya, Herzlia and more and includes details of the operator’s Kibbutz fly-drive programme and Holy Land Highlights tour.

The new brochure covers the period June 2007 to October 2008, and instead of featuring traditional price panels, includes instead lead 7 & 14 night prices for accommodation only holidays.
“We’re seeing more and more accommodation only bookings coming from the trade.” said Rafi Caplin of Longwood Holidays. “Add to that the many special offers we negotiate throughout the year, and it’s easy to appreciate how quickly the price panels became inefficient. By including lead-in prices only, we’ve extended the shelf life of the brochure.”

The brochure contains a number of early booking offers, kids’ specials and value added offers at a number of hotels. Prices start at £169 for 7nts BB (accommodation only)  at the 3* Sea Net in Tel Aviv, based on two people sharing a room.

The operator has already released its new season Egypt & Jordan and Red Sea Diving brochures, and the fourth in their programme, a dedicated Eilat brochure, is due out in August.

Agents can check the latest prices for all three countries online at www.longwoodholidays.co.uk, on viewdata or with Longwood’s specialist reservations team.
