WHY IT RATES: Following the conclusion of the 2024 Olympic Games, Pleasant Holidays’ Paris Vacation Sale is timely, presenting an excellent opportunity for travelers to explore a newly revitalized Paris without the crowd and cost concerns associated with the Olympics. Plus, travel advisors will be able to offer special deals and incentives, including discounts on hotels and tours, with top sellers earning a Paris stay and bonus TRIP Points for themselves. — Laurie Baratti, TravelPulse Contributing Editor


Pleasant Holidays and its luxury brand, Journese, today announced their Paris Vacation Sale and travel advisor incentives featuring exclusive deals including savings up to 35 percent and added values at more than a dozen Paris hotels plus 10 percent savings on select private Paris tours. Pleasant Holidays and Journese will award a 3-night, breakfast-included stay at Hotel Napoléon Paris and 5,000 bonus TRIP Points to the top seller of Paris land, group and cruise vacations during the sale, while the advisor with the second-highest sales will earn 2,500 bonus TRIP points. All Paris bookings automatically enter the travel advisor into a drawing for one of five prizes of 1,000 bonus TRIP Points.

The Paris Vacation Sale and travel advisor incentives are valid for new bookings made Aug. 12 through Nov. 3, 2024 for travel through March 31, 2025 for land vacations and Dec. 31, 2025 for cruise vacations. Travel advisors must meet a minimum threshold of $20,000 in sales to Paris to qualify for the top sales prizes. Pleasant Holidays and Journese feature more than 60 hotels in Paris, along with Seine River cruises and dozens of commissionable experiences, most with private options. Non-stop flights to Paris are available in all classes of service on Air France, Air Tahiti Nui, American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, United and JetBlue from gateways across the United States. Premium economy and business-class seating offer additional comfort and amenities for overnight transatlantic flights.

“Now that the 2024 Olympic Games have ended, the opportunities to visit Paris and other cities in France will be even better,” said Jack E. Richards, President and CEO. “Visitors this fall and in 2025 will have the chance to experience the city’s newest improvements without having to contend with Olympic-sized crowds or prices, making it the perfect time to visit. Travelers can explore more of France on an all-inclusive Seine River Cruise from Paris through historic and culinary regions including WWII beaches and museums in Normandy.”

Pleasant Holidays and Journese offer custom vacation packages to 28 countries in Europe and 83 countries worldwide, along with river and ocean cruises, plus high-speed rail travel on Eurostar and Trenitalia. Pleasant Holidays and Journese highly recommend travel protection coverage for international vacations with up to 100 percent commission protection and Cancel-For-Any-Reason options to protect travelers’ vacation investment. Travel protection coverage also is available for Europe river and ocean cruise vacations.
