At the show, exhibitors reported major new business opportunities from local and international professionals within the aviation and catering sectors who visited the three-day event.

Chatsford Ltd, a Hong Kong-based supplier of gifts, toys and promotional items for the airline industry, regards the Middle East as one of its key business markets.

Eugenio Gili, President, Chatsford Ltd, said:
"We were impressed with the quality of airline customers that visited ITCA Dubai. Nowadays not only representatives from local or regional airlines visit the show but also professionals from beyond the region. So it is a good advantage for us to be able to establish a link with the newcomers. Future-wise, thanks to our continuous participation at ITCA Dubai, the show opens the prospect for our company to expand our borders and not just concentrate in the Middle East."


Sponsored by Emirates Airlines, ITCA 2008 drew visitors ranging from airline representatives, charter service operators and in-flight service professionals to cruise caterers, government officials and logistics providers.

Joanne Cook, Group Industry Manager - Food Cluster, Dubai World Trade Centre said:
"We are pleased with the strong attendance of senior personnel which resulted in a lot of business being conducted at the show. With the region's growing travel industry - including airlines, cruise ships and railway operators - we expect an even more successful show next year."


ITCA Dubai 2009, organised by Dubai World Trade Centre in partnership with the International Travel Conference Association (ITCA), is the ideal platform for suppliers in the airline, cruise, ferry and railway catering and services industries to meet with leading airline, cruise, rail operators and ship chandlers.
