The Marianas feature in leading Japanese online shopping site Rakuten rolled out last Jan. 31, featuring a \u201c3-day Holiday in The Marianas.\u201d<\/p>\n
The promotion urges customers to watch the Marianas Visitors Authority\u2019s new \u201cThe Marianas\u201d video, tweet on Twitter what they want to do in the islands, and then book hotel rooms via Rakuten Travel. In doing so, customers will earn Rakuten shopping points.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur new promotion with Rakuten allows customers to help us promote some of the most popular activities in Saipan, Tinian, and Rota, such as enjoying the beautiful ocean, enjoying marine activities, feeling nature or local life, and learning about our history and culture,\u201d said MVA Marketing manager Broc Calvo. \u201cThese are some of the unique attractions our islands offer, and we welcome the Twitter buzz we are receiving in Japan through this promotion.\u201d<\/p>\n
