ORANGE County Visitors Association (OCVA) has officially launched ‘The OC & ME’ travel package in what is an industry first for a United States regional tourism association to create and promote a travel package exclusively created for residents of the GCC.
The purchase of the exclusive packages from local GCC travel agents provides recipients with a special OC & ME campaign card entitling cardholders to complimentary VIP personal shopper experiences, discount vouchers, value-added accommodation and gifts worth over $2,000. The campaign is valid until June 30.“As the first United States regional tourism association to have a permanent presence in the Middle East, we wanted to extend our welcome to GCC residents further by creating an exclusive value-added campaign highlighting Orange County’s excellent shopping and luxury lifestyle experiences,” said Ed Fuller, president and CEO, Orange County Visitors Association. He added: “The OC is perfectly located within an hour’s drive between Los Angeles and San Diego, so staying in Orange County not only provides luxury beach accommodation and experiences that Southern California is famous for, but convenient access to the region’s major cities without the traffic congestion.” The launch of ‘The OC & ME’ campaign follows a mission of OCVA delegates to the UAE in October 2014. ‘The OC & ME’ packages are based on six-night/seven-day stays, and all hotel room fares include tax, breakfast for two, complimentary wi-fi plus several added value elements.
