Three days of business sessions start on 26 November following the welcome party the previous night at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. The farewell party is to be staged at Universal’s Islands of Adventure on 28 November.

ATP International chief executive Graham Ramsey urged agents to register soon to obtain the best choice of accommodation and flights. He said: “There are some excellent rates on both accommodation and flights and we urge delegates to log on to the website as soon as possible to register. As always, those who do will get the very best prices available.”
