SEESPORTS Becomes an Officially Recognised Sports Tour Operator in Ireland

Represented in Ireland by Don Clake (DCM Representation Services in Ireland)
Belfast based Tour Operator SEESPORTS, is proud to announce that it is now officially recognised by the Irish Aviation Authority (IAA) as a Tour Operator.
With this approval, SEESPORTS can now arrange and sell 100% financially protected sports travel packages to customers across the Republic of Ireland - both directly and through a growing network of Irish travel agents.
“This is a big moment for SEESPORTS and for our agency partners all across Ireland,” said Don Clarke, Sales Representation at SEESPORTS.
“We’ve worked really hard to build a brand based on trust and professionalism — and now we’re one of only a few companies that are fully recognised in both the UK and Ireland.
We already work with the largest and most respected travel agents all across the UK, and we’re excited to bring that same partnership-first approach to the Irish market.
What this means for Irish customers and travel agents:
· IAA-recognised to sell in the Republic of Ireland
· 100% financial protection through International Passenger Protection (IPP)
· Fully compliant with the Package Travel Regulations
· Approved to trade with Irish travel agents and direct customers
UK customers remain 100% protected under SEESPORTS’ TTA trust account, ensuring guests in both markets benefit from the same strong safeguards.
From Dublin, Cork, Galway to Belfast, SEESPORTS offers football, rugby, Formula 1, boxing, and horse racing packages and tours - each one combining official match tickets, handpicked hotels, Seats Guaranteed together and our Kick Off Cover as standard.

From Montego Bay to the Deise

Wow! From Montego Bay to the Deise to catch up with Brendan Mallon (Sales Manager Scotland & Ireland at Sani/Ikos Group) and Ian Manto (General Manager Harvey Travel Waterford). Don Shearer, Travelbiz, joined the guys to take in the fine tasting beverages in the Marina Hotel in Waterford as Brendan embarks on a tour of Ireland representing the Sani/Ikos group as their new Sales Manager, so you will all be seeing a lot of Brendan 😊
Don worked with Brendan back in the good old Falcon Holidays days and will be supporting Brendan and the team in Sani/Ikos group to activate traction and bookings in the Irish market working with their wholesale and retail partners.
Here is a brief insight to the Sani/Ikos group.
Explore luxury redefined with the Sani/Ikos Group, a trailblazer in sustainable, high-end beachfront hospitality across the Mediterranean. With 12 award-winning resorts spanning Greece and Spain, the group blends unmatched family-centric service, Michelin-starred cuisine, and all-inclusive indulgence under the banner of “unconditional luxury.” Their ambitious green agenda—powered by solar electricity, zero waste-to-landfill objectives, and biodiversity protection through the Sani Green and Ikos Green ESG programs—underscores a bold commitment to both people and planet. What's more, expansion is underway: a brand-new Ikos Grand Resort in Halkidiki, alongside upcoming properties in Crete, Spain, and Portugal, herald a bold new chapter of growth and guest delight.

Riviera Travel launches 30% agent discount for personal river and ocean cruise bookings!!!

Some exciting news from Riviera Travel, who have launched a new agent initiative offering 30% off any personal holiday bookings agents may wish to make to experience the award-winning operator's offering for themselves.
Riviera Travel, is delighted to unveil a brand-new agent rates initiative offering travel agents a discount of 30% on personal river and yacht cruise bookings in Europe. The offer is available immediately, with no restrictions on departure dates or travel year. This generous discount reinforces Riviera’s ongoing commitment to being not only easy to book for customers, but just as straightforward and rewarding to do business with for their valued travel agent partners.
“We recognise that it’s not just about fam trips, the trade has a real appetite to book their own holidays with us. That’s why we’re offering a rich discount to support them,” says Vicky Billing, Director of Trade & Partnerships UK & Ireland. “The trade supports us so well, and we absolutely love giving back! The beauty of this offer is its simplicity: Any departure, any year, any River or Ocean Cruise. We know things get complicated when too many terms and conditions are involved, and our motto is always to be as easy to do business with as possible.” Booking couldn’t be easier: To claim their discount, all agents have to do is call Riviera Travel’s dedicated trade sales team and quote code ‘Agent Discount’ when making their booking without using their ABTA number. The discount is applicable for bookings of up to two guests as well as solo travellers but cannot be combined with agent commissions. All bookings have to be made directly over the phone, as the discount code cannot be used on Riviera Travel’s website. This initiative is set to make personal travel planning even more accessible and rewarding for Riviera’s valued trade partners, offering flexibility, freedom, and a heartfelt ‘thank you’ from the team. To see all available itineraries and departure dates visit www.rivieratravel.ie or call the Riviera Travel Irish Team on 01 905 6300 today.
