The media team from the Middle East is expected to cover 2-3 articles per publication, regarding the destination and host properties, on either print/online or both mediums over a span of 4 months after the FAM trip.

This familiarization trip is a great opportunity to relay the latest information about the destination, the strict safety measures in place in our resorts, hotels, guesthouses and liveaboards to potential tourists from the Middle East market. Through this, they can promote the unique geography of the islands, which provides natural social distancing for tourists, making Maldives one of the safest destinations for tourists to visit post covid.

The media familiarization trip is conducted as part of Visit Maldives’ strategy for the Middle East market to promote the Maldives on high-end channels, focused advertising and promotion of individual products and experiences.

So far this year they have held several activities targeting this market to maintain destination momentum and make Maldives the preferred destination for tourists from the Middle East. This includes familiarization trips, webinars, roadshows, participation in fairs, exhibitions, joint marketing, social media and digital campaigns with stakeholders from this market. Similar activities will be held for this market during the rest of the year as well.
