MATATO To Take Part In MATKA Nordic Travel Fair 2016
MATKA Nordic Travel Fair is the largest travel industry event in Northern Europe and this year. MATATO Joins this year

MATKA Nordic Travel Fair is the largest travel industry event in Northern Europe and this year, Maldives Association of Travel Agents and Tour Operators (MATATO) will be participating. The event will be held between 19th and 22nd January 2017, in Messukeskus Helsinki, Finland.

MATKA Nordic Travel Fair plays host to an outstanding platform for travel industries to learn about new products in the market, network with other members of the industry as well as connect with the suppliers. MATKA is in league with the constantly evolving travel trade in order to administer the best platform for the industry to grow. They aim to offer an exclusive chance to meet the decision makers of the travel industry and consumers with purchase power in an inspiring setting.

As part of their efforts to provide affordable and productive marketing opportunities for the Maldivian travel industry in the international market, MATKA gives us the accessibility to the world’s third largest outbound travel market.

Though sparsely populated, Nordic countries play an extensive role in the market for outbound travel. Nordic travelers are big spenders and spend up to USD 20 billion on travel each year. Despite the few 25 million inhabitants, this region currently has the highest travel spending per capita in the world, surpassing spending rates in countries like Germany and England.

With high spending power, frequent travel is facilitated for the Nordic travelers. It’s rare for guests of other countries to travel abroad as often as Nordic tourists; they journey outside Europe seeking leisure and culture regularly. 

MATATO invites interested hoteliers and travel agents to exhibit their hotels at MATKA 2017. In order to have a significant presence of destination Maldives and to make room for opportunities at the exhibition. The registration deadline is set for 10th December 2016.
