Qatar tourism authority participates in world

Al Nuaimi has been invited to participate as a speaker in the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) WTM Minister’s Summit along with tourism leaders from around the world. The summit will look at "How Tourism Can Prosper in Times of Uncertainty". QTA has been targeting the UK and European market with its highly successful "48 Hours" campaign which encourages long haul passengers flying through Doha and business travelers to stay an extra two days in Qatar and experience its warm Arabian hospitality. "There are more and more tourism attractions in Qatar ranging from our iconic museums and cultural activities to high profile sporting events, from luxury hotels and spas to fine dining that are of interest to visitors from the UK. With frequent daily and direct flights offered by both Qatar Airways and British Airways – a long weekend visit is not only easy but also appealing," Al Nuaimi said. "We are also targeting the MICE sector, which continues to grow every year. Qatar has shown it can stage high profile large scale events and we are also seeing the emergence of interest in the country as an incentives destination. Qatar has evolved into a destination that can offer a range of options to different markets." "Doha has been chosen to host the prestigious World Travel Awards on December 11 this year. This event celebrates the best of the travel and tourism industry. The fact that Qatar has been chosen to host it recognizes the growing stature of our nation."
