MyTravelChannel.com exhibits American Women's Association Travel Fair

'The US market is extremely important to us,' said Simon Lewis, Manager E-Ventures Group, Emirates Airlines and manager of myTravelchannel.com. 'Many Arabs study in the States and their connection with the country is strong. The same is true of Indians. Then of course, there is traffic by Americans, travelling to and from the Middle East.'

MyTravelChannel.com received 10,000 flight search enquiries alone last year for American destinations.

With this in mind, myTravelChannel.com and its travel partners DNATA Holidays and Kanoo Holidays recently exhibited at the American Women's Association's (AWA) annual Travel Fair at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Dubai. The exhibition highlighted the convenience of online travel to AWA members.

Sharin Gaille, President of the American Women's Association said: "The Travel Fair has been very popular because it offers AWA members a unique opportunity to learn about exciting travel destinations in the region."

Ben Barker of Kanoo holidays said: "It has been a great day meeting with high profile clients interested in holidays that range from Spa breaks, tented safaris to exclusive cruises."

Kanoo Holidays together with myTravelChannel.com also gave away a holiday to Salalah in Oman, complete with accommodation at the Hilton Salalah to a lucky AWA member.

To source its deals, MyTravelChannel.com draws on over 500 airlines, 50,000 hotels, and 750,000 cars available for hire worldwide, combined with key partnerships with leading organisations including Emirates Holidays, Dnata Holidays, Kanoo Holidays, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Royal Caribbean International Cruise Vacations, Holiday Autos and Jumeirah International to broaden choice for the travelling public.
