APPLE VACATIONS, is a Pennsylvania corporation which opened for business in August 1969. Apple Vacations' headquarters are located in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania, with offices located in Elk Grove Village, Illinois and San Jose, California.

During our more than 33 years of operation under the same management, APPLE VACATIONS has grown to become one of the largest tour operators in America.

For years APPLE has been a major vacation tour operator to Mexico, Hawaii, Las Vegas, Bahamas, Bermuda, Costa Rica, and the Caribbean. Apple has expanded service to include ski vacations and entertainment and golf vacations to the heart of America's entertainment, Branson Missouri.

APPLE operates scheduled and charter flights from most of America's major population centers including: Atlanta, Baltimore, Boston, Charlotte, Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus, Denver, Detroit, Hartford, Indianapolis, Kansas City, Los Angeles, Milwaukee, New York, New Orleans, Newark, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Phoenix, San Antonio, San Francisco, St. Louis, and Washington, D.C.

APPLE is significantly expanding its daily scheduled air service vacation packages out of many gateway cities across the country to Mexico, Hawaii, the Caribbean and now ski packages to Colorado, Salt Lake City and Whistler.

In the winter 2002 APPLE operated 180 charter departures per week, nationwide. This number is expected to increase for the winter 2003 season to 210 weekly departures.

APPLE VACATIONS has excellent buying power because of the large volume of business we provide to many resorts. This large presence in the marketplace has enabled APPLE to negotiate the best possible airfare, hotel rates and transfer rates, which are translated into attractive selling prices, better rooms and overall greater value than any other vacation company in the world.

Due in large part to our extremely high customer service objectives, APPLE has become one of the most trusted and highly respected tour operators in the United States with over 1,000 employees.

In 1993, APPLE became the first major tour operator to send one million vacationers to Cancun, Mexico. In February 2000, APPLE delivered its three millionth vacationer to Cancun.

APPLE VACATIONS are sold only through retail travel agents and has established itself in the travel community as a reliable tour operator. Travel industry professionals know that they can sell an APPLE vacation with confidence and without fear of by-pass competition.

The Government of Mexico awarded APPLE VACATIONS the "Best Tour Operator Worldwide" Award in 1998.
