The operator has seen encouraging signs in the family market for 2010 and sold their Easter school holidays availability faster than expected, prompting the operator to make the bold move:

"Our Red Sea availability sold strongly early and we are seeing high volumes of calls from people searching for unspoilt beach resorts "with flavour" - somewhere authentic, with less commercialism but still enough to do for all the family. That's exactly what North Cyprus offers and we have now added capacity to cope with the demand from agents looking to get their clients away during the high season." explained Sabina Shaida, Managing Director of Mosaic Holidays.

The operator claims that travel agents need to offer destinations like North Cyprus in order to be able to offer original, short haul, holiday resorts that are not mass market, with the assurance of excellent service both in the UK and in resort.
