We are thrilled to reveal our new annual strategic approach that will accompany LCC in 2024, and that will be filled with life in BRAGA soon. Agile, dynamic, moving forward, future-oriented, modern, young, stylish - or simply: NXT!
NXT is therefore our NXT step in driving forward closer cross-border integration and business development within the LCC network while also focusing on the NXT generation of travellers. Three letters leading to the future of travel, the future generation of travellers, future innovation and the future of LCC!
A prominent X emphasizes the X-factor, our DNA and expertise, but also stands for:
Xchange - powerful network in the corporate and DMC area
Xpand - record breaking growth and ongoing expansion Xpertise - 6300 travel expert and entrepreneurial competence united in one network
Xceed - speed of revolutionary changes in travel and innovative power of LCC Xpress - our DNA and human factor that excels
Xperience - is what our customers can built on and trust in, both in corporate and leisure service excellence - from off the beaten track journeys to responsible travel, our experience makes the difference.
