1st Class Travel Celebrates 20 years

Ribbon Cutting

The Adventure Continues! 20 years - WOW! 1st Class Travel, formerly First Discount Travel (back in 1996) , celebrated 20 years in business with a week-long celebration. The week of October 17th was a busy one for the team of ladies. Monday started off strong with an Alaska Evening with Collette Vacations - they had a great turn out - Alaska is a definite "bucket-list" trip for many. Sales events from Carnival Cruise Lines, Royal Caribbean, Globus, Cosmos, Monograms, Princess Cruises, Holland America Line, Norwegian, Avanti Destinations, Funjet Vacations and Viking Cruises were ongoing throughout the week. Many of these vendors also provided door prizes and giveaways for the customers of 1st Class Travel. Thursday, the 20th, was a Customer Appreciation Day beginning with a Ribbon cutting at 10am with the Cape Girardeau Chamber of Commerce and the Jackson Area Chamber of Commerce. Customers, new and old, celebrated with a cake from Hoeckle's Bakery. To top this celebration off there were 4 Grand "Enter to Win" prizes given away : 4 nights + Airfare to the RIU Palace Las Americas courtesy of RIU and Funjet Vacations, 3 nights to the Dreams Sands Cancun courtesy of Amresorts, 2 night stay in Branson, and a bottle of wine courtesy of Globus!
