The appointment was made as the airline that offers low fare long haul services to key destinations, seeks to firmly establish and strengthen its brand and sales outreach among Belgian travellers and travel industry leaders. As part of the representation, AVIAREPS will act as General Sales Agent for XL Airways in the Belgian market, responsible for the airline’s sales, marketing, reservation and ticketing activities, as well as operating a call centre for the airlines. Says Laurent Magnin, Chief Executive Officer, XL Airways France: “Offering the convenience of flying both scheduled and charter flights directly from Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport, XL Airways offers low fare long haul flights to savvy passengers who would prefer to spend their money enjoying their final destination rather than have that budget consumed by their flight ticket. Our appointment of a sales and marketing representative in Belgium is reflective of the growing importance and our commitment to this market, and we are confident in AVIAREPS as the best choice for us to achieve our ambitious goals.” XL Airways France operates a modern fleet consisting of an Airbus A330-300, two Airbus A330-200s, and three Boeing 737-800s.
