Tourist Times advertisers will be delighted to learn that their message will be read on the Interislander Cook Strait ferries.
Passengers on the three-hour ferry journeys between Wellington and Picton are a captive market, with many using the time to read about the destinations they're heading to. "It is important that Tourist Times is available at key entry points to the six Tourist Times regions, so having the having publication available to Interislander passengers is a fantastic service for them", says John Stokes, spokesperson for the national group TTNG.
For northbound Interislander passengers, the Wellington-Manawatu-Hawke's Bay edition will be available, while southbound passengers will be able to uplift copies of both the Marlborough-Nelson-West Coast edition, and the Canterbury edition.
Tourist Times is available free-of-charge to passengers on all three ships. It’s a free call to make a booking on the Interislander - phone 0800 802 802.
