Monarch site ‘reflects agents’ needs’


Phil Davies phil.davies@travelweekly.co.uk


Monarch holidays, hotels and flights are available via a new website.


The holiday section of the new


site – Monarchagents.co.uk – has been designed to reflect feedback Monarch has received from agents. The site enables agents to


search and refine against a wider choice of holiday options. It allows the selection of multiple airports and destinations, as well as navigation between various options including resort, price, departure date and board basis. The site also has a revised late-


deals function, allowing agents to filter against options according to the needs of their customer. The move all but completes


Monarch’s shift away from the Cosmos Holidays name. The Cosmosagents.co.uk site


will continue to operate alongside


SINGLE BRAND: Monarch’s new trade website


the new one for a short period until it is withdrawn. Agents’ logins work on both sites. Tour operations sales director Gary Anslow said: “The design and functionality of the holiday section of the new site is different to our existing site. We launched


Monarchagents.co.uk to a selected number of agents a few weeks ago, with a view to getting ‘live’ feedback ahead of a full launch. “We are delighted with the


response. It has been really well received and we have seen a good uplift in sales from agents using the new site.” He added: “The majority of the


holidays are booked online, so it’s critical we provide agents with all of the options and alternatives they require for their customers – we feel the new site does this.” Cosmos Tours & Cruises, not


a part of the Monarch Group, continues to offer products


under the Cosmos name. monarchagents.co.uk
