Record-breaking January sales see Ignite Travel Group celebrate

' src=

Australia’s leading online travel company, Ignite Travel Group, has celebrated its best-ever month, breaking its previous sales record by 25 per cent.   Gold Coast-based Ignite Travel Group has announced January 2024 as its most successful month in its 16-year history. Breaking multiple records, with both best day and month recorded, this milestone, coupled with its sustained upward trajectory in sales and business growth, Ignite anticipates its turnover to reach $1 billion this financial year.

Founded in 2008, Ignite Travel Group has built a strong reputation within the industry and to its customers with its trailblazing approach to travel, stemming from its hand-crafted holiday packages and unique Bonus Value.

Within January, Ignite saw Fiji, Queensland and Bali lead the way in top-selling holiday packages, and My Cruises’ new and exclusive Northern Lights discovery topped the charts for cruise holiday packages. Other notable holidays were the travel company’s Japan touring packages. Western Caribbean and domestic sailings were also popular for the record-breaking month.

Overall, the January 2024 result saw a 25 per cent increase compared to its previous best record in 2023.

Ignite Travel Group CEO, Ryan Thomas, said: “I am so proud of what the team achieved for the month of January, an unbelievable result smashing all previous records across all divisions, including My Holiday, My Cruises and Touring. Every single role in the business, from sales, customer service and air ticketing to IT, finance, marketing and product, and our dedicated people and culture teams, have played a vital role in achieving this milestone.

“January presents a unique opportunity for Australians to seize unparalleled holiday deals as numerous holiday sales and early bird booking opportunities are unveiled at the start of the year.

“We are renowned for being the original ‘holiday in a box’, and we know it is this and the incredible value and bonus extras our customers receive that have contributed to our January results. Our deep relationships with our resort and cruise line partners have allowed us to continue to thrive in an ever-changing industry.”

Ryan went on to say: “2023 was a record year and we are now on track to beat that in 2024. In 2024, Ignite forecasts to recruit an additional 30 per cent new team members all playing a vital role in helping Ignite achieve this continued level of success.”

This success is just one of many over the past 12 months, with the company, known for its innovative travel solutions, recently winning the prestigious titles of 2023 Most Outstanding Hybrid Online Travel Agency in Australia at the National Travel Industry Awards, being named finalist in the 2023 CLIA awards for Largest Cruise Agency of the Year and Agency Cruise Promotion of the Year and Cruise Month Promotion of the Year. Adding to this, the company were also winners of the Bravery and Innovation category at the Mumbrella

Customer

Lena, our guide in Moscow was excellent. She was very knowledgable and could answer any question we had for her. We liked that she could pick up on our interests and take us places we might not have thought of to go. When we realized that one of the places we had chosen to see would probably not be that interesting to us, she was able to arrange entry to the Diamond Fund and the Armoury for us. Riding the Metro with Lena was a real adventure and a lot of fun. In Saint Petersburg we found Anna well versed in the history of the Tsars and in the Hermitage collection. Arkady in Veliky Novgorod was a very good guide and answered all of our questions with ease. Novgorod was perhaps a long way to go for a day trip, but we did enjoy it. Vasily was a great driver to have and kept us safe with good humour and skill. We enjoyed ourselves so much, my daughter says she is already planning to return. We would both have no hesistation to recommend ExpresstoRussia to anyone we know.

Just wanted to let you know that My grandson Bruno and I couldn´t have been more pleased with our week in Moscow (6/15 - 6/21). We were absolutely enchanted with the whole experience, including getting lost a couple of times in the Metro during our free time. Although both our guides (both Eleanas) were excellent, I would particularly commend the first one (she took us to the Tatiakov, the KGB tour, and to that beautiful cemetery where so many great Russian artists, authors, composers, musicians, militarists, and politicians are buried). Her knowledge is encyclopedic; and her understanding of today´s Russia as a product of its past was, for us, truly enlightening. I will be taking another tour in Russia, with my wife, within the next two or three years. I will be in touch with you when the time comes. Meanwhile, I will refer you to other potential visitors to Russia as I meet them.

Moscow, a City Like No Other

Moscow is Russia’s largest city with a population of between 12 and 13 million. It is also Europe’s largest city and when you visit Moscow, you can feel it. The layout and architecture of the city is eclectic, ranging from crooked, ancient streets and alleyways to wide, bustling boulevards, from medieval churches to Stalin skyscrapers and to modern, glass buildings towering over everything and of course in the center of it all is the Kremlin and the magnificent Red Square. Moscow is also home to a fantastic, efficient and very beautiful metro system – each station having its own special design. In fact, Express to Russia’s Moscow metro tours and excursions are some of our most popular attractions that we offer. On our Moscow tours, you will see this and more.

Moscow Tours centering on Russian History

Moscow has a long and interesting history and has been the capital of Russia in many of its different iterations – capital of the Grand Duchy of Moscow , the Russian Empire and of course the Soviet Union (who could ever forget the Soviet Union?). Moscow, was founded in the 12th century by Prince Yuri Dolgaruki (Yuri of the long arms – he really did have long arms!). From that time on, it was home to the Russian Tsars until Peter the Great moved the capital to St. Petersburg in 1703. The city has survived invasions and sieges from the Mongols, the Tartars, the Poles, Lithuanians and Napoleon but has always persevered. Our Moscow tours will enlighten you on this great history and give you insights into Muscovites and their unique culture. Our Moscow tours show you what the city is like today but also brings to life the past. Moscow never seems to sleep and is bursting with energy. A Moscow tour with Express to Russia is truly the best way of getting to know Russia’s largest and most vibrant city.

Frequently Asked Questions From Our Travelers

What is the best time to visit moscow.

Any time of year is fine depending on what you plan to do. Summertime is pleasantly warm, ideal for exploring the city and its vibrant atmosphere, but Moscow will be much busier and accommodation is more expensive. Winter can be quite cold but beautiful nonetheless, and this is unproblematic if you intend to spend most of your trip in museums and galleries. There are also various festivals and events organised throughout the year. For more information about the best time to visit, read our guide

How many days are enough in Moscow?

If you plan your itinerary strategically and aren’t averse to a packed schedule, you can cover Moscow’s main sights over a long weekend. Most popular attractions are in the city centre, and the Moscow Metro allows you to cover much ground in a small amount of time. Ensure that your accommodation is fairly central and book tickets in advance, so that you can make the most of your days. For an informative and well-organised day out, check out our Moscow day tours with options to suit all interests.

Do they speak English in Moscow?

As Russia’s capital city, tourists are well accommodated in Moscow. There should be English-speaking staff in restaurants, bars, hotels, shops and attractions in tourist hotspots, and there are also English-speaking tourist police. Transport services have English translations on their maps and English announcements via intercom; alternatively, order taxis from the Yandex Taxi app (Russian Uber), though it’s unlikely that your taxi driver will speak English. If you get stuck and cannot communicate, it’s fine to use Google Translate.

Is it safe to travel to Moscow?

It is no less safe to travel to Moscow than to any European city if you exercise common sense and look after your belongings. As with every city some regions can be more unsavoury than others, but no tourist attractions are located there. The traffic in Moscow is notorious, so exercise caution when crossing roads. Do not take unlicensed taxis; book in advance or take public transport, which is widespread and perfectly safe. If you encounter any problems, look for the special tourist police who can help you. For more information, read our guide about staying safe in Russia .

Prime minister Rishi Sunak at a press conference in the Federal Chancellery during his visit to Berlin.

Threat of summer poll a tactic to ward off Sunak revolt, say senior Tories

Rumours of an early election, despite Labour’s lead in opinion polls, being used to keep unruly Conservative MPs in check

Senior Tories believe the threat of a summer general election is being used by Downing Street to deter a rebellion against Rishi Sunak’s leadership, before a perilous set of local elections this week.

Westminster has been abuzz with rumours of an early election, despite the persistent double-digit lead enjoyed by Labour in the polls. While Downing St sources have played down speculation of any imminent announcement from Sunak, influential MPs believe No 10 is holding open the possibility of an early election to keep rebellious colleagues in check.

“If the prime minister went to the palace and said, ‘this is just hopeless and it’s not going to get any better, we just need to go to the country’, we would end up going to the country,” said one influential Tory. “That will act as a discipline on colleagues. Obviously, some would like an election – but the vast majority would not.”

While the mood among Tory MPs is largely one of resignation rather than agitation against Sunak, a wipeout this week including losses for Ben Houchen in the Tees Valley mayoral race and Andy Street in the West Midlands could be enough to ignite an attempt to remove the prime minister.

Election analysts believe the Tories could lose as many as half the council seats they are defending this week. Most of the seats were last contested in 2021, when the government was riding high and enjoying a poll bounce for the Covid vaccine rollout.

An effort to shore up Sunak has already begun, including a flurry of activity that saw him pledge to increase defence spending to 2.5% of GDP. Cabinet figures including defence secretary Grant Shapps and home secretary James Cleverly have already spoken out against any potential move against Sunak .

Matt Warman, deputy chairman of the Conservative One Nation group, told the Observer that party discipline must now kick in. “The Conservative party has always been a broad church – it is the most successful party in electoral history because of that, not despite it,” he said. “Supporters want us to unite against the genuine and underestimated threat to the economy and public services of a Labour government. Floating voters need us to so they can assess the real options available at the ballot box.

“Divided parties are doomed to opposition and we must come together to find pragmatic solutions to the challenges, domestically and globally, that we face today. We know that Keir Starmer’s Labour simply are not up to that task.”

Despite the calls for unity, senior figures believe Sunak is at the helm of a party now more divided than it was before Labour’s landslide under Tony Blair. One former minister said party discipline was now “even worse than in 1997”.

“They don’t seem to want to group around Rishi Sunak,” they said. “The handicap he has is he wasn’t elected by the party members, he took over in the circumstances post-Johnson and post-Truss. No party leader has been quite in that situation. So people are saying, ‘well, what’s the point of being loyal’.”

after newsletter promotion

One advantage for the prime minister is that the plotting against him is not said to be fully formed or particularly organised. Letters of no confidence from 52 MPs are required to trigger a vote on Sunak’s leadership and there is no evidence that anywhere near that number are considering such a move. However, a hardened group of rebels will agitate against Sunak after the local election results.

One former minister said there was little discernible appetite for a move against Sunak, partly because morale was so low. “People know they’re going down – they all do. It’s just a question of what is best, looking forward,” they said. “It’s about having the best campaign that you can and making sure you win enough seats to be a credible opposition – that’s the basic foundation. If they lose that, then we’re in real trouble.”

Downing St sources dismissed the claims that Sunak could call an election imminently. While deputy prime minister Oliver Dowden is understood to have discussed the idea of a summer poll, the biggest figures in No 10, including campaign director Isaac Levido and chief of staff Liam Booth-Smith are both said to be advocating an election in the late autumn to give the economy more time to show signs of recovery.

CANCELLATION CHARGES & OTHER SERVICE FEES

For payments made by you (other than non-refundable deposits as referred to in the “DEPOSITS, HELD BOOKINGS & FINAL PAYMENTS” clause), if you cancel the booking we are unable to provide any refund to you unless and until we receive a refund of the amounts paid by us on your behalf to third party travel service providers. Cancelled bookings will incur charges. Travel service providers are entitled to impose cancellation charges, which can be up to 100% of the amount paid to them for the relevant service, regardless of whether travel has commenced.

If we receive any refunds from travel service providers, we will pass those refunds on to you. However, you agree that we shall be entitled to retain a minimum cancellation fee of $300 per person which you agree is reasonable compensation to us for the services that we have provided and expenses incurred by us in facilitating and booking your holiday, and processing the cancellation of your holiday.

Non-payment Fees:

Should you default in making any payment in accordance with the agreed trading terms all monies owing to us will immediately become due and payable. We will be entitled to charge interest at the rate of 3% above the 90 day bank bill rate as set by The Reserve Bank of Australia per calendar month on all overdue amounts from the date due for payment until the date of actual payment. We reserve the right to recover from you any expense and/or costs or disbursements incurred by us in recovering any outstanding monies including debt collection agency fees and legal costs.

Amendment Fees:

Booking amendments will incur a minimum fee of $55 per person, together with any additional amendment fees applied by the service providers.

Other Service Fees:

We reserve the right to apply other service fees in addition to those charged by airlines, resorts and other service providers, for any services provided by us in addition to those included in your holiday package. Some of these fees may include, but are not limited to, credit card surcharges, late booking fees, processing fees and urgent documentation delivery.

Australian departure tax is recorded on your ticket as being paid. All quoted taxes are subject to change until tickets are issued. There are still some countries where taxes are paid upon departure from the airport.

RESERVATIONS

Reservations (even after payment of your deposit and final payment) are subject to us receiving confirmation from the service provider including ticketing from the airline provider. In the rare instance where a reservation request cannot be confirmed by the service provider, you will be offered the choice of alternative arrangements (which may be with an alternative service provider), which may be at an additional cost or alternatively a full refund provided where the service provider allows. You agree that we are not liable to you for any such additional costs.

SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS

All seating and meal requirements must be requested at the time of booking. We do not provide any guarantees in relation to these requests and they are subject to availability.

FLIGHT SCHEDULE CHANGES

The airlines have the right to reschedule or cancel flights at any time. It is your responsibility to contact the airline prior to travel to ensure the scheduled departure time has not changed. We do not accept responsibility should changes occur nor do we accept responsibility for any additional cost incurred by you to make alterations to your booking to accommodate these changes as these are beyond our control.

SUPPLIER CHANGES

Many of the bonus inclusions which are incorporated into various packages have no associated costs to your package purchase price i.e. they are ‘free’ inclusions. This includes, but is not limited to, bonus inclusions such as cruises, golf, massages, day tours etc. Should you elect to cancel any component of your package there will be no refund forthcoming or any reduction in the overall package price. Additionally, should any ‘bonus’ inclusions be cancelled by an operator or any such service not be provided to you, no refund will be forthcoming nor will any additional service or compensation be provided unless offered directly to you by the service provider responsible for that service. In such circumstances that the inclusion cannot be provided for any reason, we may elect to find an alternate date, supplier or inclusion.

TRAVEL INSURANCE

We strongly recommend that you obtain travel insurance. The Australian Government also strongly recommends that all travellers obtain travel insurance prior to travel. We are an authorised representative of Covermore AFS Licence No 241713, on whose behalf we are able to offer you a travel insurance product. You must obtain a Product Disclosure Statement relating to the travel insurance product you are considering purchasing and should read that documentation before making any decision about whether to acquire the product. Our reservations consultants can provide you with general information about travel insurance at the time of booking. If you do not obtain travel insurance either through us or another travel insurance provider, you acknowledge that you may be required to sign a disclaimer.

TRAVEL DOCUMENTATION

Travel Documents include (without limitation) airline tickets, hotel vouchers, tour vouchers or any other document (whether in electronic form or otherwise) used to confirm an arrangement with a service provider. Travel documents may be subject to certain conditions and/or restrictions including (without limitation) being non-refundable, non-date-changeable and subject to cancellation, re-issue and/or amendment fees. All Travel Documents are non-transferable. All airline tickets must be issued in the name of the passport/photo identity holder and some carriers will deny carriage if the name varies from the passport or photo identification provided and the booking may be cancelled. It is your responsibility to ensure you have all required Travel Documents prior to travel. We will not be held responsible for tickets and/or documentation lost by you or a third party. Any charges associated with re-issue and re-sending of tickets and/or documentation will be at your expense. An incorrect name on a booking may result in an inability to use that booking and the booking being cancelled. Any errors in names, dates and timings on your documentation will be your responsibility. Please advise us immediately of any errors.

PASSPORTS AND VISAS:

It is your responsibility to ensure that you have valid passports, visas and re-entry permits which meet the requirements of immigration and other government authorities. Passports are required by all passengers travelling internationally and are always the responsibility of the passenger. Many countries require travellers to have at least six months’ validity remaining on their passports beyond the date of return, and immigration authorities may refuse entry if you arrive with less than this. Some countries require a machine readable passport.

If you are travelling to the United States (including Hawaii) please see https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov for information regarding compulsory pre-registration for their visa waiver program. Please note, you may not meet the requirements of ESTA and may be required to obtain a visa.

VACCINATIONS:

Health requirements are the responsibility of all individual travellers. Our consultants are not qualified to advise you on vaccinations. Please contact your own doctor or a specialist vaccination clinic.

FREQUENT FLYER

Please advise your consultant of your frequent flyer membership details for inclusion in your booking. Please check your frequent flyer program for the specific terms of your membership. We cannot guarantee that the supplier will credit you with points for your booking.

PRIVACY LAWS

We are committed to protecting the privacy and confidentiality of personal information. Please click here to view our Privacy Policy. You hereby consent to and we reserve the right to obtain information from an insurance company about any claim made on an insurance policy issued in your name for which we have paid the premium referred to in paragraph 4.

MONIES NOT HELD ON TRUST

All monies paid by you to us will be the property of Ignite Holidays Pty Ltd and will be a debt due and payable to the travel service provider once the service to which the money relates has been provided, except for monies paid for flights with an IATA airline which might be held on trust for that IATA airline.
