Acorn Travels has been a stalwart in the Sri Lankan travel industry since 1973. Under the guidance of Director and Senior Vice President Ms Chamila Wijethunge, the company continues to evolve, offering efficient corporate travel solutions that meet complex business objectives on a global scale.
A Legacy of Excellence in Corporate Travel
Building on its decades of expertise, Acorn Travels sets itself apart by providing more than just tickets and accommodations.
“For us, corporate travel is about meeting strategic business goals,” explains Chamila Wijethunge. Whether clients need to forge new partnerships, attend critical conferences, or reward high-performing teams with incentive trips, Acorn Travels delivers experiences that are both cost-effective and seamless.
This approach is bolstered by IATA accreditation and strong global partnerships, which grant the company a wide reach and exclusive industry benefits. The result is an unwavering commitment to superior service and maximum value for every business journey.
Tailored Itineraries for Maximum ROI
Recognising that no two enterprises have the same objectives, Acorn Travels specialises in crafting customised itineraries. Every detail, from flight schedules and ground logistics to MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions), is planned with precision to maximise return on investment.
“Our extensive industry relationships enable us to offer premium accommodations, preferred seating options, and competitive pricing,” says Chamila Wijethunge.
Strategic Alliances for Global Reach
One of Acorn Travels’ key differentiators is its extensive network of alliances. The agency is the General Sales Agent (GSA) for Royal Caribbean Cruise Liners (RCCL) and Celebrity Cruises, strategically positioned as high-impact incentive travel or executive retreat options for corporate groups. Preferred sales partnerships with Cosmos Coach Tours and the Globus Family of Brands, along with a collaboration with Corporate Travel Management Pty Ltd (CTM), grant clients access to cutting-edge tools, data insights, and cost-saving opportunities worldwide.
