Manchester & the North West
Incentive travel for Manchester businesses
We are twelve minutes from Manchester Airport, in Alderley Edge. That means we can sit down with you, and it means we build trips around routes that actually leave from here.
Why use a Manchester-based incentive travel agency?
A local agency builds trips around direct routes from Manchester Airport, so a group arrives together and on time rather than connecting through London. It also means you can meet the people running your trip face to face, before and after, rather than only by email.
Local, and it matters
The airport decides more than the brochure does
Half of what makes a group trip feel expensive or cheap happens before anyone reaches the hotel. A direct flight from Manchester means one departure, one arrival, and a group that starts the trip in a good mood.
Route people through London to shave a little off the per-head cost and you will spend the saving on the first evening, which is now a write-off. We plan around what actually flies from here.
Being local has a second, duller advantage: we can come to you. Most programmes involve at least one conversation that is much easier across a table than over email.
