Oasis Travel, Lisburn

Oasis Travel, Lisburn
One of TTG’s Top 50 Travel Agencies 2020

Opened in 1984, Oasis Travel’s Lisburn branch was the first of boss Sandra Corkin’s now six-shop empire and remains right at its heart to this day. The Tardis-like building on Railway Street acts as the nerve centre for all things Oasis – hosting its leisure travel division, luxury portfolio team for high-end clients and head office staff all under one roof.

Its seven-strong leisure team enjoyed a record year of business in 2019 and no wonder, with a highly experienced and dedicated staff boasting an enviable 155 years of experience in booking the right holidays for the right customer.

Lisburn branch’s vast array of knowledge is collated within manager Briege McElroy’s Top Hotels book, featuring pages of hotels around the world that have been tried and tested by the team, with tidbits such as “hotel 300m from the beach” or “great Italian restaurant along the street” giving clients valuable insiders’ tips.

Service is paramount here, and the Lisburn branch works hard to support Oasis’s corporate mission of being “the best-loved travel company” in the region.

Lose your watch at the airport? Or need help getting your luggage back from Australia after it was accidentally taken from Dublin Port? These are just two recent examples of episodes when Team Lisburn came to the rescue.

It’s no wonder then the agency has built a five-star Feefo rating among its happy customer base. The business is also proud to give back to its local community with an array of sponsorship and support ranging from sports events to charity fundraisers.

And, despite being open for more than 35 years, there have been plenty of recent developments keeping things fresh. These include snazzy new uniforms in Oasis’s classic sapphire blue, a direct debit service to help customers spread the cost of their trips, and even virtual reality technology being rolled out to bring customers’ trips to life before they’ve even left the shop.
