Caribbean Marketplace Back In Bahamas
The Caribbean Travel Marketplace is returning to The Bahamas for the second consecutive year, with the Caribbean Hotel and Tourism Association (CHTA) staging its event there from Jan. 31 to Feb. 2, 2017 at Atlantis, Paradise Island.
In addition to CHTA, Caribbean Travel Marketplace 2017 will be organized with the support of The Bahamas Ministry of Tourism, Nassau/Paradise Island Promotion Board (NPIPB), Paradise Island Tourism Development Association (PITDA) and The Bahamas Hotel & Tourism Association (BHTA).
Joy Jibrilu, director general, Bahamas Ministry of Tourism, observed: “We are delighted to announce that next year CHTA’s Caribbean Travel Marketplace will once again be hosted here on our beloved Islands of The Bahamas. We look forward to welcoming back those delegates who joined us this year as well as inviting new travel partners to enjoy our hospitality and see firsthand the exciting new products and experiences which The Bahamas and the Caribbean offer.”
CHTA president, Karolin Troubetzkoy commented: “With the support of The Islands of The Bahamas, we are enhancing the scope and impact of Caribbean Travel Marketplace, attracting new delegates and building upon the successful sales and marketing professional development sessions offered earlier this year. Caribbean Travel Marketplace presents the best opportunity to generate last-minute seasonal business while setting the state for long-term business and enhancing the relationship between hoteliers and buyer companies.”
The CHTA will be adding several new components to the event aimed at attracting even more buyers and suppliers.
