www.awtte.com The Arab World Travel and Tourism Exchange (AWTTE 2007) is postponed until the presidential elections are over. Based on the keenness to show the best of what Lebanon can offer both as a platform for regional tourism as well as one of the top travel destinations, the Lebanese Ministry of Tourism and Al-Iktissad Wal-Aamal Group, AWTTE organizers, decided to postpone the annual event, which was due to be held on December 6-9.
Sponsored by the Investment Development Authority of Lebanon (Idal), Middle East Airlines (MEA) as Official Carrier, Rotana Hotels as Host Hotel and the Egyptian Ministry of Tourism as Guest Country, AWTTE 2007 had also registered 14 national pavilions. These pavilions included their national airlines, hotels and tour operators. Furthermore, Over 100 hosted buyers and press from different continents of the world were scheduled to travel to Beirut and experience the unique offerings of AWTTE exhibitors.
However, the changes in the dates of the presidential elections in Lebanon necessitated postponing this year's exhibition awaiting the right atmosphere to celebrate the ever-festive Lebanon.
AWTTE 2008 will include all those who have registered for this year’s exhibition and more. The new dates will be announced shortly.
