Incentive Class

Depending on the travellers expectations ‘Incentive Class’ needn’t be First Class or even Business Class. But it demands the best of the selected standard, impressively presented.

Treatment appropriate to VIPs… best available guides, coaches, facilities… cold or hot towels on transfers… thoughtful refreshments… all special dietary requirements catered to… airline seating as far forward as possible… check-in and other formalities smoothed and expedited… hotel rooms of uniform quality, aspect and size (never ‘run of house’)… minimum waiting times… liquor on consumption (not as a meal-and-liquor package) wherever possible… all courtesies observed.

Delivery of a memorable, high quality travel experience is imperative, both to generate goodwill among the qualifiers and to enhance allure of subsequent incentives. When funding is tight, long-term outcomes are inevitably better if the number of trips offered is reduced but trip quality is maintained.
