Relaunch of Caribbeantravel.com to Take Place in Late February

As part of our ongoing coverage of the annual Caribbean Marketplace, Travel Agent attended a press in which we learned that the highly anticipated relaunch of www.caribbeantravel.com will commence on February 28.

The Caribbean Tourism Development Company (CTDC) jointly owned by the Caribbean Tourism Organization (CTO) and Caribbean Hotel and Tourism Association (CHTA) prepare to relaunch the site with an enhanced design and search capability.

"The Caribbean will now be represented by one voice, by one logo and will let the world know the Caribbean is here to stay," says Vincent Vanderpool-Wallace, former minister of tourism for The Bahamas who currently serves as a consultant for the CTDC.

Driven by the necessity to compete in the ever growing and aggressively competitive global travel marketplace, the Caribbean has come together to create a "24/7/365," online portal that will act as the collective home for all of the countries of the region, showcasing their unique beauty as well as giving voice to all of the individual brands.

The CTDC is the Caribbean region’s tourism marketing and business development unit. The CTDC was created in 2007 as a joint venture private company by CTO and the CHTA.
