Avanti Destinations has launched a new line of 58 off-the-shelf vacation packages across 18 countries, along with three new regional microsites for travel advisors. The packages mark a significant expansion in the company's offerings across Asia, Latin America and the South Pacific.

“With the introduction of fixed-price, non-customizable packages, Avanti now offers three ways that advisors can book our FIT vacations,” said Paul Barry, CEO of Avanti Destinations. “We decided to offer these packages for several reasons. First, there are many new advisors, most of whom know North America and Europe best, but are not that familiar with booking FIT in Asia, Latin America and the South Pacific. The fixed-price, non-customizable packages make it quick and easy to browse, make a recommendation to their clients and book without the back-and-forth involved with customized vacations.”

The fixed-price, non-customizable packages make it quick and easy to browse, make a recommendation to their clients and book without the back-and-forth involved with customized vacations.

The new collection features comprehensive itineraries, such as a 16-day Ultimate Australia experience covering Sydney, Adelaide, Kangaroo Island and Melbourne; a 14-day Ultimate Japan tour exploring Tokyo, Hakone, Kyoto and Hiroshima; and a 15-day Vietnam journey through Hanoi, Halong Bay, Hue and Ho Chi Minh City. Each package offers accommodations, local transportation, guided tours and destination-specific experiences.

Avanti has also reintroduced printed advisor reference guides, beginning with the South Pacific region. Travel advisors can access the new packages through three dedicated microsites without prior registration. The company continues to offer its traditional customizable packages alongside these new fixed itineraries.
