Fall Packages and Discounts

More travelers are looking for packages and discounts before choosing their destination and booking a trip. The Pensacola Bay Area CVB would like to respond to this demand by developing several themed packages for fall, including sports/fishing/diving, dining, spa, history, family, and eco-packages. Ideally the package would include a lodging partner along with a restaurant or attraction. We also remind you to post your fall specials on the Web site. Our team will be following up soon with more details.

Marketing Opportunity

This summer and fall, the CVB can help your company increase visibility among travelers who have requested more information about the area. Participating partners pay $1,450 to include a message accompanying 15,000 visitor guides mailed to travelers by request. For less than 10 cents per mailing, partners can send a targeted message to influence the visitor’s travel plan. Please e-mail Leslie@ewbullock.com if you are interested. Participants will be selected on a first come, first served basis until July 3.
