The British global travel company is helping customers take a decision on where they choose to visit during the holidays before checking out, with the hep of virtual reality headsets. When a tourist (I mean you) wears a virtual reality headset, you get to visit your preferred destinations: See the hotel rooms, visit restaurants, bars and popular tourist attractions across the globe right from where you are standing.Pretty cool, isn't it?
For example, a traveler puts on a virtual reality headset and can take a tour around New York in a helicopter, or visit the SunConnect resort in Cyprus or take a look round the famous Status of Liberty in a boat, and then again, see the sights and sounds of the ever-busy Time Square as though you are there.
The virtual reality headsets are being rolled out by Thomas Cook to three travel agents in the UK, and some are coming to Germany and Belgium, after successfully putting the technology to the test in Thomas's store in Bluewater shopping center, Kent in August. Watch the video below.
