ALL INCLUSIVE VS A’LA CARTE FOR VIP TOURISTS
There are not very many hotels of the highest premium level with the all-inclusive concept in foreign resorts, FUN&SUN states.
As Space Travel explains, wealthy travelers are very sensitive to an individual approach, and if the hotel offers All Inclusive, then this concept should be thought through to the smallest nuances. For example, a restaurant with a “Swedish line” may be quite small, while a significant part of the food should be provided in a’la carte restaurants.
According to the observations of tour operators, despite the high popularity of the all-inclusive concept among tourists, very wealthy Russians are not too committed to this format. They often book expensive hotels with breakfast meals, less often with half–board meals.
“Well–off VIP-level guests can afford to choose the food they want, and not the one that was prepared “for everyone,” Ambotis Holidays commented.
