Travel conference sells out in record time
An annual conference organised by The Travel Network Group has sold out in record time.
CEO Gary Lewis said 320 members will be attending the event in Monaco, which will be the largest the Group has ever hosted.
Business partners and staff will boost the total delegation to over 450.
"The fact that the conference has sold out before we have confirmed the theme and content proves that members trust us to deliver a great event," said Lewis.
"We knew that Monaco was going to be a big hit with members and the fact that it is a sell-out demonstrates that we have the destination spot-on for this year’s conference."
Lewis claimed that the ratio of 4.5 members to business partners meant the event would have the highest number of agents to suppliers of any UK travel conference.
Places for the Business Partner Forum are almost sold out, with only a small number still available. Headline sponsors for the November conference include: Travel2/Gold Medal, Oceania Cruises, Premier Holidays, Jet2holidays, Holiday Extras, Sandals, Flexible Autos, American Express and the gala dinner sponsor, Travelport.
The conference theme and speakers will be announced over the coming weeks.
