Bigger and better

SUNWORLD has launched its biggest holiday programme for summer 2008.

The company, Ireland’s market leader to Portugal and Turkey, has included the usual more heavily booked properties along with a few new faces, notably the exceptional Ria Park Resort near Val do Lobo in Portugal and the new 5-star Sealight Resort Hotel and Spa in Kusadasi in Turkey.

Sunworld’s first foray into Bulgaria last year proved to be a successful one and that destination features again this year with flights from Dublin every Monday during the main holiday season.

The company is offering more free child places, a bigger range of accommodation and more flexibility with extended stays over the usual 14 nights.

The company operates direct from Cork and Shannon to Portugal, Bodrum and Lanzarote, and from Dublin to Bulgaria, Portugal, Adnan, Bodrum, Antalya, Majorca, Menorca, Malaga, Lanzarote, Fuerteventura and Gran Canaria.
