Kuoni Presents the Weather Programme on Monocle 24 Radio

DORKING, England, October 24, 2011/PRNewswire/ --

Kuoni, the leading global travel service provider, exclusively presents
the weather as part of the new radio station from the global affairs
magazine Monocle - M24. Both passionate about quality and the zeitgeist,
Kuoni and Monocle have formed a new partnership aimed at today's most
discerning listeners and travellers. The weather forecast on Monocle 24
provides reports for the world's most important lifestyle centres and
holiday destinations, appealing directly to Kuoni customers and travellers
who are always on the move within these hotspots.

Monocle 24 is a new radio station from Monocle, the leading
international magazine for all globally-minded people who are interested in
the most important latest developments in design, fashion, business,
culture, travel and global affairs. It offers a number of live shows about
culture, city life, design, architecture, fashion and innovative
entrepreneurship. On top of this, there is a carefully-selected line-up of
music, news and weather reports around the clock. Like the magazine, the
station addresses diverse and relevant global affairs topics for an
international audience.

"We wanted to build a unique mix of smart talk, truly global news and a
great soundtrack to live your day and night by," says Monocle editor in
chief, Tyler Brule. "Like the magazine, it will be knowing and witty, hard
hitting, and off beat."

Kuoni presents the weather forecast exclusively on Monocle 24, which is
broadcast throughout the day as individual reports. The programme provides
information about the world's most important lifestyle centres and travel
destinations and is aimed at listeners for whom travel between today's
hotspots is part and parcel of everyday life.

With Monocle, Kuoni has teamed up with a partner that appeals to the
same target market - people who demand the very best in terms of quality and
appreciate services that not only correspond to their very own lifestyle,
but that are also in keeping with the times. Kuoni Concierge at the Bellevue
in Zurich creates personalised, high quality holidays especially for these
customers.

Remo Masala, Chief Branding & Marketing Officer for the Kuoni Group,
explained that the most discerning travellers, who will be in Tokyo tomorrow
and New York the day after, as well as those who want to spontaneously get
away from it all on the other side of the planet can find out what the
weather will be doing in an informative and entertaining way. Masala said:
"What's more, Kuoni Concierge also gets them there with exceptional
tailor-made solutions that create a new and unique approach to travel."
