First Choice is one of many businesses that is struggling thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic. But, unlike a host of its competitors, First Choice is relatively well-placed to ride the storm. The business was originally started in 1973 and entered the London Stock Exchange in 1982. Since then it has merged with the travel section of TUI to form TUI Travel PLC. Today it still trades under the name First Choice. Although you can view their products online, First Choice continues to produce a paper-based catalog. In fact, they produce an array of brochures. Each one focuses on certain destinations. For example, Summer sun focuses on sunny areas nearer to home, such as Spain or even Croatia. In contrast, the Topical catalog looks at further destinations, such as Florida. There are also catalogs for wedding destinations, family-orientated fun, and premier resorts. Each catalog is created once a year, usually running from the start of the main holiday season, (May), to the following April. Although each of these brochures varies in length, you can expect to find approximately 300 pages covering all the available destinations. You’re probably already familiar with the look of a holiday brochure. Every page illustrates a beautiful scene where people are enjoying their holiday. There are detailed descriptions of the accommodation, special features, and links to the price index at the back of the catalog. The catalogs are fantastic for sharing at home and helping you to pick a destination together. But you should be aware that the prices in the catalogs are provisional. As the First Choice catalog is printed once a year, the prices can change according to market variations. That’s why you’ll need to confirm them in-store or online. It should be noted that First Choice frequently has offers and promotions. But, you won’t normally find these in a catalog. You’ll have to check online or in-store to discover what deals you can benefit from.
There are over 600 First Choice branches across the UK, they are a high-street staple and you’re certain to have one near you. Most of the branches are relatively small, they’ll be 3-5 desks and a wall of brochures. There is usually a bureau de change to help you sort your travel money. Each branch is simply laid out to allow you to focus on your holiday. You’re welcome to go in and simply help yourself to the brochures that appeal. Or, you’ll find the staff are very friendly and eager to help. They can help you to choose a destination and a specific hotel, or plan a world trip! Although the choice of destinations can be overwhelming, it’s worth stepping into your local branch. It’s inviting, friendly, and they’ll help to point you in the right direction. You’ll also find the staff can locate special deals which you may not see in the brochure and they can even price match any offer you’ve seen elsewhere.
The First Choice website is well-laid out and easy to use. You’ll instantly spot the search engine that allows you to enter a few simple details and start searching for your holiday. This is great if you’re not sure exactly where you want to go. But, before you start inputting it’s worth clicking on the menu and taking a look at the various options, such as destinations or deals. You’ll be directed to pages that give you an overview of the place, tell you about things to do locally, and provide the latest travel advice. Scrolling through the site you’ll be able to narrow in on specific resorts and hotels, check prices and deals, and even see alternative suggestions.
