Continued diversification of destinations and tailoring of the programme to the needs of customers help ensure efficiency, which is one of the priorities of the company. A group-wide load factor for leisure destinations has remained very high for the third month, reaching 97% in March.   
  
“We are consistently pursuing our diversification strategy and focusing on those destinations where we see the greatest potential. Firstly, we are meeting our customers' needs, and secondly, we are maintaining operational efficiency and sustainability. By monitoring traveller behaviour, we are adjusting our planned volumes in Turkey, where competition is the fiercest, and increasing our capacity in the Greek islands, Montenegro, which has been a great success for more than a year, as well as in the Italian and Spanish resorts, and Bulgaria.   
  
As the market leader offering the widest range of destinations, we have the strength to monitor the market dynamics and to make the necessary decisions promptly in order to achieve customer satisfaction and, at the same time, profitability,” says Kristijonas Kaikaris, CEO of Novaturas Group.  

In March, the company launched the first familiarisation tours of destinations and hotels for partners, during which the representatives of agencies are introduced to the upcoming season news. The first such fam tour took place in Cyprus introduced by the company as a new destination for this summer season. In total, the company is planning around 25 group-wide tours for its Lithuanian, Latvian and Estonian partners in spring and summer in different destinations, including Tunisia, Malaga, Rhodes, Crete, Montenegro, Turkey and Bulgaria.  
  
In addition, as every year, the company has organised awards for the best agents and agencies in Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia to promote long-term partnerships and successful cooperation. The Estonian branch of the company celebrates its 20th anniversary this spring.
