A&K Russia has chosen ILTM as its major launch exhibition. An Abercrombie and Kent company statement said, “In keeping with our decision to open a network of specialist DMC offices throughout Europe, we have launched our new Abercrombie & Kent Russia office. A&K Russia will demonstrate the unique blend of local destination specialisation and five star service that the trade has come to expect of the worldwide group of DMCs.”
Moscow was recently voted as the New York Times’ ‘Luxury Destination of the Year’ and, with St Petersburg, the two cities hold some of the world’s greatest cultural and art treasures, multiple five star hotels, and diverse world class cuisine.
“The biggest advantage of having our new local team is that we can get our guests an insiders look at the most historically and culturally significant aspects of the region’s heritage: it’s decadent palaces, outstanding arts and glorious cathedrals, as well as taking in the country’s areas of exceptional natural beauty,” the statement added.
A&K Russia will be represented on Stand N133 by Marett Taylor and Anthony Bay. “It’s a natural decision for the latest member of our A&K family to exhibit at ILTM. Our general manager in Russia, Natalia Odinochkina, has more than 25 years of experience in the Russian tourism industry, and we can deliver experiences in line with Abercrombie & Kent’s core philosophy.
