Aspecialist in customised vacations for North America (USA and Canada) strictly in B2B space, Sans Incredible Vacations LLC has designed multiple fixed departures ex-USA. It has now introduced new fixed departures for the Indian market. Speaking about them is Nalin Kapadia, Vice Chairman, Sans Incredible Vacations LLC. He says, “We have recently introduced fixed departures for Diwali in USA and Western Canada, and Christmas in New York with New Year in Las Vegas. This is probably the first time ever that this has been offered.”

Not just this, the company has a strategy to grow further. “We are planning several roadshows and workshops around the country. The first one will be held in Ahmedabad on September 4, 2018. A senior officer from the US Consulate will also be addressing the attendees. This will be a great opportunity for the travel agents to offer readymade products to their clients,” Kapadia reveals.

Speaking about the new products that are being promoted for the US are fixed departures for 2019 with four options. Kapadia says, “We are introducing a visit to Lake Mammoth and Lake Tahoe in the West Coast, adding a few more exciting experiences in New York like the Beast Ride as well as Washington which includes the Spy Museum and so on. We will also intensify our efforts in promoting edu-tourism. This will be to Kennedy Space Centre in Orlando and Johnson Space Centre in Houston.” The company is also promoting customised packages to Canadian Rockies and to East Canada. It has special packages for Robotics Classes for all age groups in Toronto.

The USP of the company is that it offers its agent partners something not many tour operators in the industry offer – flexible fixed departures to the US. “Our fixed departures for the US are immensely flexible, allowing passengers to join in even for a part of the tour. Our passengers have the option of doing only the East Coast or the West Coast. Also, unlike other DMCs, our itineraries are full board and are inclusive of all inter-city land travel,” Kapadia says.

• According to Kapadia, the most popular cities or tourist spots in the USA for Indian visitors are: New York, Washington, Orlando, Niagara Falls, Las Vegas, Los Angeles and San Francisco. In Canada, the most visited places by Indians are Toronto, Niagara Falls, Banff, Jasper and Vancouver.
