Baltic Travel Service has signed a 5 year franchise agreement with “Lufthansa City Centre International” and has become “Baltic Travel Service Lufthansa City Centre” (BTSLCC).
“Such a partnership with Lufthansa, one of the world’s best air companies, would be of much benefit for our clients. We are now able to offer more services and a greater variety of travel destinations for better prices”, says Olegas Vasinas, Director General of BTSLCC.
“For business clients we will offer lower air ticket and hotel prices, and for holiday makers - beside traditional choices, last minute voyages from German airports. And we will be able to pay back to our clients the VAT part of money spent for hotel, taxi or other tourist services.
Baltic Travel Service, which has 9 offices in Lithuania, had a turnover of USD 4.6 million in the first 8 months of the year.
Lufthansa City Centre International is an international network of travel agencies with 470 offices in 42 countries.
Beside BTSLCC there are offices of several other foreign business travel companies, including “Business Travel International”, “American Express”, “Carlson Wagon Lit”, etc. in Lithuania.
