Bharti Airtel Lanka, a subsidiary of Bharti Airtel, a leading global telecommunications company with operations in 20 countries across Asia and Africa, rewarded two of its loyal customers in their latest ‘Instant Weekend’ promotion where Airtel customers who make an outgoing call to any number between 2:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. stand a chance to win holiday packages for their entire family.
The first two winners of the ‘Instant Weekend’ offer were awarded their holiday packages at the Airtel corporate office. While a local call brought M.M.I. Asif a chance to win an overnight stay on full board basis at AVANI Kalutara Resort for a family of four while Mahalingam Pradeep stood a chance to win two return air tickets to Singapore by simply making an IDD call from his Airtel mobile. While this promotion will be conducted exclusively during the holiday month of August, loyal pre-paid and post-paid Airtel customers could continue to try their luck by dialling both local and international calls especially during the weekend to win luxury holiday packages for the whole family.
Commenting on this latest promotion, Bharti Airtel Lanka CEO/MD Suren Goonewardene said: “As a global telecommunication service provider we value our customers as one of our greatest assets. While we continues to set the trend by launching new products and services that focuses on giving customers offerings that are innovative, current and relevant for them, we believe in ensuring that our customers experience the best service and are rewarded for being loyal. This promotion invites all our customers to try their luck in winning a valuable holiday package for their whole family at a four star property by simply making a call during the given time. It’s as simple as making a call locally or internationally. We congratulate the first two winners and encourage all our customers to take part in this promotion.”
Commenting on the promotion Serendib Leisure Hotels Director Sales and Marketing Suranjith de Fonseka said: “We are glad to partner Airtel on this promotion and give the winners an opportunity to experience a holiday at an AVANI hotel. AVANI Bentota has a refreshingly understated ambiance, and is known for its warm hospitality and distinctive character and AVANI Kalutara blends authentic Sri Lankan culture and old colonial charm to offer an escape of laid back relaxation.”
AVANI Hotels and Resorts was launched by the Minor Hotel Group in 2011, with AVANI Bentota Resort and Spa, the new brand’s first property, debuting in Sri Lanka in November 2011. AVANI Kalutara was the second hotel to be launched in Sri Lanka in October 2012, and has a remarkable location, built on the mouth of the River Kalu, facing the lagoon in one direction and the Indian Ocean on the other. A sister brand to the luxury, award-winning, Anantara brand, AVANI offers relaxed comfort and contemporary style to guests who value the details that matter and is managed in Sri Lanka by Serendib Leisure Hotels, a subsidiary of the Hemas Group.
