Thomas Cook Scandinavia visits Fort Myers

December 20th, 2011 |

Thomas Cook will feature The Beaches of Fort Myers & Sanibel a future travel destination in 2012

Local tourism partners joined with the VCB sales team last month to host three
Scandinavian product managers on a two-day FAM tour of Lee County. For the past
six months, the VCB sales team has been talking with the product managers from
Spies and Ving, part of Thomas Cook Northern Europe, about making The Beaches
of Fort Myers & Sanibel a feature travel destination in 2012. The two
companies – the strongest tour operators in Scandinavia – previously only
focused on north Florida, Orlando and the Miami area. During the FAM tour, the
product managers toured hotel properties, experienced the local environment and
wildlife via a boat ride and networked with local hotel and attraction leaders
during a reception. The VCB team received positive feedback from Spies about
the prospects of working together with the VCB in the coming year to drive more
Scandinavian visitors to the destination.
