06 August 2010 - The Gambia Experience - Press Office
The Gambia Experience is pleased to announce it has secured additional flights between Gatwick and Banjul, to meet demand for holidays in The Gambia, over the October half term. In addition to its existing twice-weekly Gatwick departures, the tour operator is offering extra flights with Monarch Airlines on board a Boeing 757 aircraft for departures 22 and 29 October.
The Gambia Experience’s commercial manager, Paul Kenny said:
“We have filled our allocation on the existing Viking flight on October 22nd, so thanks to these additional flights, holidaymakers wanting to travel at this time will now not be disappointed.”
The Gambia is an attractive holiday choice for many families as it’s outside of the euro zone, within six hours of London and on the same time zone. Not only is it ideal for a winter sun holiday with its vast sandy beaches and superb climate, but it is also an excellent and safe place to learn about different people and new cultures. Having the opportunity to visit a school and meet Gambian children with a different lifestyle, or to observe a monkey or baboon in their natural habitat, can provide both a stimulating and educational experience.
The Gambia Experience offers a wide ranging choice of accommodation to suit all tastes and pockets including: family friendly beachfront hotels, intimate boutique style properties where the emphasis is on service and privacy, luxury spa resorts, as well as adult-only properties – perfect for teachers and other professionals tied to the half term holiday. The tour operator offers twice-weekly flights from Gatwick year round and regional departures during the winter season which include: Bristol, Birmingham, Manchester and new from December, Stansted.
Prices are from £735 per person based on seven nights bed & breakfast at Atlantic Beach, a 4 -grade beachfront hotel, with swimming pool and separate children’s pool, two jacuzzis and children’s playground. This price includes return Gatwick – Banjul flight departing 22 October, in-flight meal, transfers, airport taxes and government tourist levy. Extra legroom seats are also available from £60 per person return.
