ITT postpones conference until September
The Institute of Travel & Tourism has postponed its annual conference in Turkey until September.
It said the three-day event will still go ahead at the five-star Hilton Istanbul Bomonti Hotel, which has reduced its accommodation rates for delegates.
Existing conference registrations and accommodation deposits will automatically transfer to the new conference dates, said the ITT.
"We are confident that the conference will offer everything ITT members expect, including a fantastic blend of engaging conference sessions, social activities and networking opportunities," it added.
"We are co-ordinating with the Conference Hosts, speakers and all parties concerned to finalise the details and will share the Conference Registration brochure in digital format in the coming weeks."
Delegates who have booked flights with conference partner Turkish Airlines will be able to change their booking without amendment fees.
The conference will take place from September 21 to 23.
