Media Invitation - World Travel Market - Ethiopian Airlines

Friday 31st October 2014

You are cordially invited to attend a media briefing titled 'Discover the new Ethiopia and its infinite possibilities', which will outline how the Ethiopian Government, in partnership with Ethiopian Airlines, is successfully embracing new sectors of tourism.

The briefing, which will be attended by Mr Solomon Tadesse, CEO Ethiopian Tourism Organization will also highlight a new offering, Ethiopian Holidays - a new venture being marketed for Ethiopian Airlines by independent inclusive tour operator, Destination Store.

Wednesday, 5th November, 2 pm - 3 pm

World Travel Market Press Centre, Level 2, Platinum Suite 6, ExCel London.

This event will highlight some of the must see attractions in a country which is starting to grow in popularity as visitors enjoy its culture, the warmth of its people, the dramatic, varying terrain and its propensity of UNESCO World Heritage Sites.  The offering is now enhanced with its vineyards and wine tasting; and the investment in a cluster of new authentic lodges, hotels and resorts, which are aiming to primarily employ local people.

Our speakers will highlight why Ethiopia, now connected with daily flights from London Heathrow by Ethiopian Airlines and its modern Dreamliner B787 aircraft, should be high on your agenda for 2015.
