Unico DMC  have crafted an experience that will make your incentive trip or team outing in Italy nothing short of legendary.

Imagine this: you and your team, surrounded by rolling vineyards and the aroma of fresh olive groves, embarking on a wine and olive oil tasting extravaganza. Yes, you heard that right! Forget the mundane; this is an adventure that will have you sipping, savouring, and smiling from ear to ear.

Now, close your eyes and envision wandering through a picturesque vineyard, the vines heavy with plump grapes. Your guide, a true expert, shares stories of the winemaking process, transforming it from a science to a heartfelt narrative.

As you stroll through the olive groves, learn the art of olive oil production from the experts. It's not just about the taste; it's about the passion poured into every bottle, connecting you with centuries of Italian culinary heritage.

And the best part? The tasting! Picture yourself sipping on a glass of velvety Chianti, the red Tuscan sun casting a warm glow. Accompany that with the subtle kick of freshly pressed olive oil on a rustic piece of bread—it's a symphony of flavours that'll leave your taste buds dancing.

This isn't your typical team-building activity; it's a sensory journey that fosters genuine connections. Laughter flows as freely as the wine, and the shared experience creates bonds stronger than any conference room icebreaker.

Italy's wonders await, and the vineyards of Tuscany are ready to charm you and your team.

Malta's Universal Airlines launches New Flights

Malta based CEO Simon Cook spilled the beans to the Times of Malta, sharing that despite the fierce competition, Universal Air is feeling pretty confident about their game plan. They're all about that sweet spot - not quite budget, but definitely not breaking the bank like the big legacy airlines. Simon mentioned their nifty Dash 8s, which not only keep costs down but can handle those less-traveled routes like a breeze.

Now, here's a fun fact: Universal Air isn't just about scheduled flights anymore. Nope, they're diving into the world of charters too. Starting March 26, they'll be whisking folks away from Pecs to both Malta and Munich twice a week. And get this, they're the only ones doing scheduled flights from that part of Hungary!

Speaking of planes, they've got their hands on a shiny new DHC-8-Q400, with two more on the horizon. These beauties are taking over from their older fleet, giving them that fresh new plane smell and a boost in efficiency. Simon mentioned that while their charter business was cruising along nicely, it was time for an upgrade. So, they took the leap to keep things fresh and exciting for their passengers.

And fear not, charter fans! Universal Air isn't leaving you high and dry. They're still keeping those flights coming alongside their new scheduled services.

Why not combine a trip to Malta with one of these exciting destinations? What do you think of Athens for this time of year. Contact MIgreeCE for more information.
