Questex Media Travel Group has selected the Riviera
Maya as host destination for the Mexico Luxury Travel Expo, slated
for June 22-24 at the Aventura Spa Palace.
“Mexico has always been steeped in luxury,”
remarked John McMahon, show director and group publisher for the
Luxury Travel Portfolio of Questex Media Group. “However, over the
last few years, the growth of the upscale segment has warranted a
show dedicated specifically to the Mexican luxury market.”
McMahon noted that launching an international show
was a logical expansion of the company’s Luxury Travel Expo
product. “This will be an opportunity for North American travel
agents to meet in an intimate setting with Mexican upscale travel
suppliers and experience the beautiful Riviera Maya. We look
forward to presenting this new and exciting opportunity to advisors
and suppliers alike.”
Mexico Luxury Travel Expo will provide an
educational program for high-end travel agents, as well as a trade
show comprised of Mexican luxury travel suppliers hotels, resorts,
spa, golf, haciendas, regions and transportation companies.
Over 300 U.S. travel agents specializing in luxury
and desiring more opportunities for their upscale clientele are
expected to attend the expo. Other events will include evening
receptions, networking opportunities, cocktails and VIP
lounges.
“The Riviera Maya Tourism Promotion Board and
Questex have agreed to closely cooperate and partner to ensure that
only the highest level of professionalism will exist for the new
luxury trade fair,” said Dario Flota, director of the Riviera Maya
Tourism Promotion Board.
“We are delighted to work with our new partner,
Questex Media, which brings a wealth of expertise to help us
realize Mexico Luxury Travel Expo, which will be the first trade
fair for the luxury travel industry in Riviera Maya and in
Mexico.”
The Riviera Maya Tourism Promotion Board’s
international marketing aim is to strengthen the region’s position
as a leading luxury destination. “We want to become the number one
(reference for the industry) in Mexico and the Caribbean,” added
Flota.
In addition to its beautiful beaches and tourist
attractions, Riviera Maya offers solid logistics and infrastructure
as well as a high quality product for the upscale visitor.
