BUSINESS is booming for Malev in the party travel sector, particularly in upcoming Christmas party arrangements, stag and hen parties.

The company’s decision to offer “Group Leader” bonus fares and free flights for large groups has brought a positive response, with bookings up on this time last year.

The company has also benefited because it offers a generous 23kgs baggage allowance (recently increased from 20kgs), over half more than that offered by many other airlines.
