FITUR 2005 to Strengthen Own Service Network

IFEMA, the top planner of the International Travel Fair (FITUR 2005), is giving props to its own mesh of professional services in an effort to max out attendance and allow participants to make all preparations prior to their stay in Madrid.

The tourism fair, penciled in as one of the world’s major events of its kind, will stretch out from January 26 to 30 next year at the Juan Carlos I Fairgrounds in the Spanish capital.

Though the 25th edition of Spain´s International Tourism Fair is still a couple of months away, organizers are mapping out a hands-on promotional campaign with a view to target unexplored markets. FITUR planners have already cranked up a far-reaching promotional blitz in Asia, Eastern Europe and the Middle East.

With a view to bring in a larger amount of exhibitors, next year´s FITUR will unveil the Arabian Travel Market in Dubai, the most representative tourism tradeshow of the Middle East and North Africa.

A similar presentation came to pass last September 2 in India as the country hosted the Pacific Asia Travel Association Fair.

Before Spain´s FITUR comes around in January, there´ll be other major fairs around the world during the remaining of 2004. Argentina´s FIT and Brazil´s ABAV are some of the oncoming highlights.
