The Coach Travel Group has entered new partnerships with UKinbound and BETA to drive growth at its member companies
The Coach Travel Group (CTG) has recently announced partnerships with two travel organisations. It has announced its membership with trade association BETA – the British Educational Travel Association, as part of which CTG says it will focus on strengthening its commitment to delivering high-quality, safe and reliable coach travel experiences for youth, student and educational groups across the UK and beyond.
CTG Commercial Manager Matt Hobbs commented: “We’re thrilled to join BETA and align ourselves with a network of professionals who are equally passionate about enriching young people’s lives through travel. With decades of experience in the coach travel industry, we understand the specific needs of schools, colleges and educational travel organisers – from safety and reliability to affordability and flexibility.” Executive Director of BETA Emma English added: “Coach travel plays a vital role in any youth and student travel itinerary, and having trusted experts like The Coach Travel Group in membership helps strengthen the quality, safety and accessibility of group travel experiences across the UK and beyond.”
The Coach Travel Group has also joined UKinbound, a trade association that champions inbound tourism to the UK. CTG says that joining UKinbound aligns with its strategic aim to expand its reach within the tourism and travel trade sector. Matt Hobbs led the initiative and said: “We’re proud to join UKinbound and become part of a collaborative community that shares our passion for delivering outstanding travel experiences. This is a fantastic opportunity to build stronger partnerships, support industry growth and showcase the best of UK coach travel to international audiences.”
CEO of UKinbound Joss Croft said: “We are very pleased to welcome The Coach Travel Group as a member. Coach travel and tourism play an important role in shaping the UK’s tourism experience for international visitors, and we look forward to working with them to help grow their travel trade business.”
