“The evenings are a great occasion. with eighteen of Australia’s top wholesalers and airlines with expertise in the Eastern Med presenting and the accent will be on a wide range of destinations and travel themes in the Eastern Med ranging from cruising and cusine to presentations on popular Eastern Med destinations including Istanbul, Cappadocia, Athens, Santorini, Tel Aviv, Dubrovnik, Larnaca, Tripoli, Rome, Milan, Cairo, Luxor, Damascus, Amman.”
“Agents get the latest Eastern Med product information from the experts.”
“EMTA not only provides the briefing and information, but attendees also get dinner and at each venue agents have the chance to win great travel prizes including travel packages in Greece, Turkey, Jordan and Egypt sponsored by Imaginative Traveller, Inside Holidays On the Go Tours, Greece and Mediterranean Travel; Service, Royal Jordanian Airlines, the Tempo Holidays, Chat Tours and Sun Island Tours.”
