London, United Kingdom, January 25, 2016 (Newswire.com) - Southall Travel Group, a leading flights and holidays company, has acquired a large office in the exclusive commercial district of Mayfair, London. The company intends to move its corporate headquarters to this new six-storey facility on Dover Street in the third quarter of 2016.
