French travel company Austral Lagons has offered it's agents the chance to win a Seychelles holiday, in a move to increase French travel to the islands.

Teaming up with Le Meridien, Air Seychelles, the Seychelles Tourism Marketing Authority and Lémuria Resort, Austral Lagons put together a 12 day holiday to Seychelles, on offer to it's best performing sales staff.

Staff were awarded points for each part of a trip to Seychelles, such as flights or accommodation, which they sold between the start of November to the end of December 2003.

The three agents who succeeded in accumulating the most points by the end of the two months were duly rewarded with their very own Seychelles get away.

The winning staff will be in Seychelles this March.

While Austral Lagons were unwilling to release exact figures, STMA have said the French operators have reported an increase in bookings, and the company was able to confirm that, thanks to its success, the competition will be run again later in the year.
