Travelers enjoy lower fares to more destinations

SkyTeam, the global airline alliance, is offering a Round the World fare promotion to celebrate the launch of its Round the World Planner. Depending on the customer’s starting point, discounts range from 10-30% off the normal ticket price. The promotion is valid for business and economy class tickets, for sale now through 30 November 2011 and for travel through 30 June 2012.

SkyTeam’s new Round the World Planner makes taking advantage of this fare promotion even easier. The user-friendly, online application enables customers to build their ideal itinerary, with hundreds of cities to choose from worldwide. This includes many new destinations in the Greater China region added by latest members, China Eastern and China Airlines. Since its launch mid-September, the Round the World Planner has been used by thousands of customers. The tool can be found on www.skyteam.com.

“Our new planner maximizes the potential of every trip, while our fare promotion saves passengers money they can put to better use during their travels,” said Jerome d’Anglejan, SkyTeam’s Director of Sales. “Furthermore, with two new member airlines on board, we’re delighted to make accessible and affordable Round the World travel available to thousands more globetrotters.”
