[Asia Economy Reporter Yuri Kim] Lotte Tour Development announced on the 21st that it will start selling the 'Saipan travel package' for the first time since COVID-19.

Lotte Tour Development stated that starting from 6:40 PM on the 23rd, it will sell the Saipan World Resort package through Home&Shopping. This package departs from May to September, including the summer vacation period. Saipan signed the first travel bubble agreement (travel safe zone) with South Korea in July last year, allowing travel without quarantine. The Saipan government supports quarantine costs for 5 days and PCR test fees ($300) upon return if domestic travelers test positive for COVID-19 locally.

Kwon Ki-kyung, head of the travel business division at Lotte Tour Development, said, "With the full lifting of social distancing, customer demand for overseas travel, which had been suppressed, is explosively increasing," adding, "Following the success of the Northern Europe and Switzerland packages, we decided to sell the Saipan package, which is highly preferred by domestic travelers."

The 10-day Northern Europe package sold on the 3rd recorded sales of about 26 billion KRW. On the 10th, the 8-day Switzerland package recorded sales of about 12 billion KRW.

Meanwhile, Saipan World Resort is an 'all-inclusive resort' with the largest water park in Saipan, and all rooms feature ocean views overlooking the South Pacific. Along with Saipan's three major tours (Island Tour, Starlight Tour, Managaha Island), various experience programs that allow guests to feel Saipan culture are available within the resort. Activity programs for children are also operated. A free upgrade to a deluxe room is provided to all customers. National carriers such as Asiana Airlines and T'way Air can be used.

Lotte Tour Development will also sell an 8-day Northern Europe 3-country (Norway, Finland, Sweden) package through Hyundai Home Shopping starting at 9:35 PM on the 24th.
