Luxury Escapes, one of the world’s fastest growing travel websites, announced it has elevated its India Country Manager, Arun Ashok to the position of Regional Head India and Middle East.
In his new role, Ashok will continue to grow the Indian base – Luxury Escapes, while simultaneously exploring strategic growth opportunities in the Middle East, particularly UAE and Saudi Arabia.
“The Middle East is uniquely positioned to bounce back from Covid quicker and stronger than most markets, given their emphasis on regional travel and the aggressive vaccination drive that’s currently being executed across key locations,” says Ashok.
“The advantage with a nimble organisation like Luxury Escapes is that we can ramp up our operations in a new market like Saudi Arabia relatively quickly to capitalise on new opportunities while maintaining steady growth in our legacy international markets like India and US.”
Ashok has been with Luxury Escapes for almost five years and has been instrumental in setting up the India operations from scratch. Prior to that, Ashok had worked with JLL, Marriott and ITC Hotels. He is a Postgraduate from ISB Hyderabad.
