Corina SRL

What Corina SRL does

Corina SRL, doing business as Corina Travel, is a privately-held Moldovan travel agency founded in 1992 and headquartered at Str. Ciuflea 1 within Manhattan Hotel & Restaurant 4* in Chișinău. The company operates a direct-to-consumer travel platform serving Moldovan outbound travelers and inbound tourists, with 11–50 employees and four product lines: international vacation packages and flight bookings (covering 15+ countries across Europe, Africa, and Asia); Moldova day and multi-day tours (wineries, monasteries, Orheiul Vechi, Transnistria); Romania cultural-route tourism operated under its Official Partner designation with the Historic Cafés Route — a Cultural Route of the Council of Europe; and the Corina Club loyalty program offering points, discounts up to 15%, and VIP/corporate services.

The business model is primarily transactional: revenue is generated through one-time tour-package sales, airline-ticket and hotel-booking commissions, and a light subscription-style loyalty membership. Pricing is unit-based per person, ranging from €20 for Moldova day tours to €2,099 for premium Romania multi-day itineraries. Distribution is entirely direct — through the multi-language (RO/RU/EN) website, phone, WhatsApp, Viber, Telegram, email, and walk-in consultations — with no third-party resellers. The company relies on an ecosystem of 12+ airline partners (Wizz Air, Lufthansa, Turkish Airlines, TAROM, airBaltic, HiSky, Pegasus, etc.) and its institutional partnership with the Council of Europe-recognized Historic Cafés Route for product differentiation. There is no disclosed funding, parent company, M&A activity, or AI/ML capability; the underlying technology is a conventional tour-management and booking platform.

Emerging players
