Hotels, attractions, destination management companies, restaurants, tourist boards, airlines, car rental and ground transportation companies will be meeting with buyers from worldwide tour operators, conference and incentive organisers and wholesalers to negotiate rates and promotions for 2011 and 2012.
The event is staged by the Caribbean Hotel and Tourism Association which represents private sector tourism suppliers from across the region. Sponsors include Virgin Holidays and Mastercard.
