BISHOPBRIGGS travel agents John Semple Travel aren’t just 2011 cruise champions…they’re Complete Cruise Champs!

 

The long-established company this week won TWO major awards in the seventh annual Cruise awards organised by Complete Cruise Solution – the company behind Cunard, P&O Cruises and Princess Cruises.

 

Semple Travel were regional winners for the “Greatest percentage growth” for the Cunard brand and they also received a “Highly Commended” for selling the Princess Cruise brand.

 

Director Paul Semple said: “This is a fantastic achievement by CruiseKings, our specialist cruise department – especially considering the challenging trading conditions we’ve seen on the High Street this year.

 

“I believe our success is down to three things – we try harder, we look after our customers brilliantly and we find the right cruise for our customers - at a competitive price. It’s a winning combination, as this week’s awards demonstrate.

 

“We’re now part of the Minoan Group plc, one of the country’s fastest-growing travel companies. The move means even better service and prices for our customers in the future...and our shop on Kirkintilloch Road will continue to offer the best and most affordable range of cruises and other holidays."

 

He explained: “For example, we’re delighted to offer new low-cost flights from Glasgow to Toronto next summer which are sure to be very popular with local people keen to visit friends and relatives over there. It’s a twice-weekly non-stop service and fares start at just £389.00 return per person.
