Journese, the luxury brand of Pleasant Holidays, has grown its Central America portfolio with the addition of Belize as its newest destination. The new product line includes five deluxe resorts on Ambergris Caye, a variety of activity options and excursions, as well as private air and ground transportation options.
To celebrate the launch of Journese Belize, the company is offering an agent incentive of 500 Bonus TRIP points for every booking made by Nov. 15, 2014 for travel Jan. 5 to Dec. 31, 2015.
