Words to make travel dreams come true

Copywriting for the travel industry

The travel industry is always great fun to write for, using evocative language to persuade people to make their travel dreams come true.  Whether it’s describing a luxurious trip of a lifetime or convincing them to buy travel insurance, there’s plenty of material to work with.

travel copywriterThe mistake is thinking travel will sell itself – just write a list of destinations and facilities, add a few photos and sign up here. But business travellers and holidaymakers think hard before buying and competition is fierce. So if you are offering a travel-related service, you need to stand out from the crowd with the right words.

At Editing Edge we bring in the human angle and consider your benefits from a fresh perspective –unearthing stories about your product or service you hadn’t even considered.

Here are a few examples:

Sports Travel Insurance

Sports travel insurance covers you whether you’re planning a golf holiday, a sailing trip, a school rugby tour, a cycling holiday or many more sports and activity holidays.

Our policies include cover for more than 100 sports and activities at no extra charge, from archery to bungee jumping, mountain biking to kayaking. We have dedicated golf travel insurance for those heading to the beautiful fairways and greens of the Algarve, the USA or beyond.

Choose between Europe or Worldwide cover. What are you planning – tennis in the Balearics, cycling the route of the Tour de France, swimming between Greek islands or rafting in the Rockies? We’ve got it covered.

We have sourced stories for newsletters from press releases, travel news, special offers, festivals and tourist events at destinations served by the Port, along with a variety of fascinating facts. Not only do these make interesting, useful reading for customers, they are also good for SEO (Google ranking) because they keep content fresh on the Portsmouth International Port website.

We have also written a sales brochure for a corporate travel supplier, email campaigns and LinkedIn profiles for a travel tech firm, and blogs for a Travel Counsellors representative.
