Record Demand for School Trip Reservations

Ureru-Net Group, based in Fukuoka, has reported that its subsidiary JCNT has achieved a record 5,000 applications for school trips scheduled for the upcoming spring season. This milestone signifies a strong demand continuing from previous years and showcases the effectiveness of various strategic initiatives undertaken by the organization.

The remarkable increase in applications is attributed primarily to several factors. First, the early launch of the application website allowed schools and travel agencies to begin submitting requests sooner than in previous years. As a result, the number of applications from existing channels increased significantly, and dormant channels were reactivated. Efforts made to enhance product recognition and visibility also played a crucial role in boosting applications.

The recent surge in reservations aligns well with the planning timelines of schools and tour operators. The implementation of early booking incentives, along with improved visibility of inventory and transparent pricing structures, have all contributed positively to the overall product design. Moreover, dedicated representatives in major regions and expanded online consultation options have reduced the lead time between inquiries and actual bookings, facilitating quicker decision-making for clients.

Due to these strategic changes, Ureru-Net has been able to enhance the accuracy of its demand forecasts. This, in turn, optimizes their procurement strategies for devices, reduces overall logistics costs, smoothens operations during peak times, and minimizes the risk of shortages. Operations are benefiting from standardized pre-introduction explanations and robust support systems, which have led to fewer cancellations and improved resolution rates for inquiries.

For clients, the current arrangement ensures peace of mind by securing devices early in the planning phase. The seamless experience they provide, encompassing applications, changes, deliveries, and ongoing support, has received positive acknowledgment. In situations where issues arise, the proactive provision of spare devices and lines allows for quick recovery, thereby enhancing the reliability of services provided to educational and corporate activities.

While the immediate impact of these developments on Ureru-Net Group's consolidated financials is anticipated to be minimal, the company estimates a positive contribution to its consolidated performance by the fiscal year ending in July 2026.

With the growing trend of early applications, Ureru-Net plans to further promote this approach to ease peak demand times, facilitating stable operations and cost optimization. They also aim to strengthen joint promotions with educational travel agencies and schools, targeting the acquisition of large group bookings. In addition, there are plans to enhance online functionalities enabling users to complete applications, modifications, and status checks in a one-stop format.

Moving forward, Ureru-Net Group will continue to listen to user feedback and swiftly integrate it into their products and operations, striving for sustainable growth and maximization of their value offerings. The organization remains committed to enhancing the overall experience for its clients while navigating the complexities of the educational travel sector, ensuring they stay competitive in a fast-evolving marketplace.
