Exciting Opportunity for Apprentices: Jet2holidays’ Exclusive Fam Trip to The Algarve

At AS Training, we are always looking for new ways to offer our apprentices unique and valuable learning experiences that will enrich their journey in the travel industry. That’s why we’re thrilled to share that we’ve teamed up with Jet2holidays for an incredible opportunity that will give ten lucky apprentices the chance to embark on the very first Destination Discovery fam trip – a three-night adventure to The Algarve, Portugal!

This one-of-a-kind trip, taking place from April 1 to April 4, 2025, will offer apprentices an exclusive opportunity to explore a fantastic travel destination while gaining invaluable first-hand knowledge of the product and services offered by Jet2holidays. Not only will this be a great chance for apprentices to see the Algarve up close, but it’s also an exciting way to deepen their understanding of the travel industry, particularly how different destinations operate and the local culture.

Why This Trip Matters

At AS Training, we believe that classroom learning is essential for building strong foundations, but we also understand that the best learning happens when you can experience things for yourself. This is exactly why this fam trip is so important. By visiting The Algarve, apprentices will not only get a taste of a beautiful, popular travel destination but also see the behind-the-scenes operations that make it a top choice for holidaymakers. From hotel visits to local excursions, this trip is all about enhancing their knowledge in a practical and immersive way.

As Michelle Van Sprang, our managing director, shares, “You cannot put a price on first-hand knowledge of product and services from experiencing a destination and culture. Being away with like-minded people and bringing our apprentices together creates such an impactful learning experience.” This trip will offer apprentices the chance to connect with industry professionals and learn directly from the experts at Jet2holidays, making their learning experience even more enriching.

A Learning Experience Like No Other

This fam trip represents an amazing opportunity for apprentices to take their learning outside of the classroom and into the world. Visiting destinations like The Algarve provides them with a unique perspective that classroom-based training simply can’t offer. They’ll meet hotel representatives, engage in informative excursions, and come away with a much deeper understanding of how to promote and sell destinations like The Algarve to their clients.

At AS Training, we’re committed to creating as many learning opportunities as possible for our apprentices. It’s not just about qualifications – it’s about fostering real-world experiences that will set them up for a successful career in the travel industry. This fam trip is an incredible example of how hands-on learning, combined with the expertise of our industry partners like Jet2holidays, can provide an unparalleled learning experience.

An Inspiring Learning Journey

For us, the goal is to inspire and empower apprentices throughout their training journey. We want them to feel motivated, passionate, and equipped to make a real impact in the travel industry. This trip to The Algarve is just one of many ways we’re working to make that happen. By offering our apprentices the opportunity to connect with others who are on the same path, they’ll leave the trip not only with enhanced knowledge but also with newfound connections and inspiration for their future careers.

In partnership with Jet2holidays, we are proud to help shape the next generation of travel professionals, and this fam trip is just the beginning of what promises to be an exciting year of growth, learning, and career development.

To our apprentices, we say: Take full advantage of this incredible opportunity! Whether you’re exploring new destinations or gaining insights from industry experts, remember that each moment is a chance to learn, grow, and shape your future.
