There is now less than two weeks to go until the Travel Convention in Abu Dhabi. This is the first time the Convention has been held in the United Arab Emirates, and it looks set to be a fantastic event with a great list of delegates and an exciting line up of high-calibre speakers.

This is the first opportunity since the EU Referendum vote that the industry has had the chance to come together, to take stock, debate and anticipate the issues that will affect our industry going forward. 2016 is proving to be a momentous year for travel and 2017 could be equally eventful. As an industry we have much to consider and the Convention’s line-up of guest speakers and industry experts promises to provide key insights as well as practical tips.

Now is the final opportunity for delegates to register, with only a handful of places remaining. I look forward to meeting all those travelling to the event and would like to thank our host Etihad Airways, and our destination partners Abu Dhabi Tourism & Culture Authority, Yas Island and Hala Abu Dhabi, as well as all of our UK sponsors, for making the Convention possible.
