Cox & Kings has urged agents to consider Iran as an alternative to struggling North African destinations such as Egypt and Tunisia.

The operator, which launched its Middle East 2017 programme last week, said its forward sales to the country were “massively up” and that the destination offered “fantastic deals” for travel consultants and their clients.

Middle East product manager Michael Fleetwood said Cox & Kings was focused on “tackling perceptions” over security that agents may have, following the operator’s return to the destination in 2016 after a five-year hiatus.
