ATLANTA, Ga. – August 6, 2015 – On August 8th, Vacation Express, one of the country’s largest tour operators, celebrates their inaugural flight from Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) to Grand Bahama International Airport (FPO). Philadelphians seeking the relaxation of luxury all-inclusive resorts, who have the desire to escape to downtown Freeport’s International Bazaar, and searching for local dining will now have their wishes granted. The crystal-clear waters of Grand Bahama Island, the perfect destination for water sports or a much needed day at the beach, are more accessible with the new, exclusive non-stop flights.

This is the start of Vacation Express offering exclusive, non-stop flights from Philadelphia International Airport. Prior to this expansion, Philadelphians drove to Newark or Baltimore, but not any longer. Due to the loyalty and demand from Philadelphians, Vacation Express is now ready to offer their great services to the Philadelphia International Airport (PHL).

 “We are extremely excited to be in Philadelphia, with our success this past year, offering non-stop flights from other points in the Northeast, we are able to move our service to Philadelphia. The response has been amazing-our first two flights are sold out.” said Kevin Hernandez, Vice President of Sales and Digital Strategy.

 Vacation Express’ exclusive, non-stop flights are operated by Sunwing Airlines, part of Vacation Express’ parent company, Sunwing Travel Group. Passengers can book these 4-night vacation packages featuring non-stop flights, with accommodations, and exclusive deals at vacationexpress.com or by contacting their local travel agent.
