Tourism Seychelles finds new opportunities at Riyadh event

Tourism Seychelles Middle East’s recent participation in the Kingdom Business & Luxury Travel (KBLT) Congress in Riyadh opened up new opportunities with its Saudi partners.

It said that the event served as a closed-door platform to connect with the global travel and tourism industry with the kingdom’s buyers.

KBLT, which was held at the Crowne Plaza Riyadh RDC Hotel & Convention, from September 25-26, 2023, facilitated partnerships by connecting global suppliers of the travel and tourism industry, such as hotels and resorts, destinations, concierge companies, cruise liners, airlines, and air charter companies and other travel solution companies from across the world, with handpicked decision-makers for outbound corporate, business and luxury travel from across the kingdom.

Ahmed Fathallah, the Tourism Seychelles Middle East representative, said: "This recognition shows that our efforts to promote the destination have been recognised and appreciated.

“Our participation in the KBLT Congress has helped us to pave the way for new business opportunities with our Saudi partners. We had the opportunity to engage with industry professionals, seek innovative partnership opportunities, and showcase what Seychelles has to offer as an appealing vacation destination."

The congress provided an excellent platform for the representatives of Tourism Seychelles in the Middle East to reinforce existing relationships and forge new ties in the Saudi Arabian Region, a statement said. TradeArabia News Service
