Arabian Travel Market will feature Africa pavilion

By Wolfgang H. Thome, eTN | Feb 16, 2011

(eTN) - The upcoming edition of the most important tourism trade fair to the Arab Gulf, the Arabian Travel Market, will have a new feature for its visitors - an Africa pavilion will be established for exhibitors coming from the continent and aiming to tap into the hugely important expatriate and citizen travel potential from this economic boom area.

With the economic fallout of the global economic crisis behind us, business in the Gulf states has significantly picked up again, bringing expats back into the UAE and other countries. Gulf airlines like Qatar Airways, for instance, are now flying double daily into the East African region, and with LCC Air Arabia from Sharjah, another affordable connection exists. Emirates, Kenya Airways, and Ethiopian via Addis are also connecting the main hub airport in Dubai daily with Eastern Africa.

Reed Travel Exhibitions has made a special offer for African exhibitors, who can now purchase an entire package of space, furniture, a carpeted and walled shell plus electricity connection, light,s and a facia name board identifying the company. Contact Derek@houstonmarketing.co.za who represents Reeds Exhibitions in Africa for further information or visit their website directly via www.arabiantravelmarket.com .

With only three months to go, and considering that previous editions of ATM was sold out, the time is now to book space and work that market.
