InteleTravel advisor Lucille Furlong of Inclusive Travel Ireland has secured three major group bookings worth up to €600,000 for Disneyland Paris.
The Dublin-based travel expert has arranged trips for dance schools set to perform at Disney Performing Arts Programme, following her earlier €120,000 booking for 234 travelers, including members of Star Struck Dance Academy.
The latest bookings include a Limerick-based performing arts school with 175 dancers, plus family, friends, and teachers, traveling in early 2026. Additionally, two Dublin dance schools have confirmed bookings—one with 65 dancers and another with 30 performers.
With growing demand for group travel experiences, Lucille continues to deliver unforgettable trips for aspiring performers.
As with her original booking, the groups will be staying at the Disney Explorers Hotel for three nights, on a bed and breakfast basis, and have two days’ park tickets. Some families are choosing to stay longer. At Disney, the dancers will have dance and performance classes, then rehearsals before performing a 10-minute show on the main stage.
Separately, Lucille has taken three group bookings over €10,000 each in 2025 and has made €200,000 of sales in the first seven weeks of this year, already surpassing her total for the whole of 2024.
“It has been incredible and there seems to be a snowball effect with the group bookings,” said Lucille.
“I have a background as a ballet teacher and that has certainly helped when dealing with the dance schools. They want someone they can trust who understands what they do and also understands travel.
“It is a great area to focus on and the rewards can be big, but it is also a lot of hard work and I have been on this for several months. The potential for my business is massive.”
Lucille is an InteleTravel Ambassador, a volunteer position within the organisation. She helps share knowledge, tips and tools to assist fellow advisors.
