Do you or your colleagues attend any of the major (or indeed specialist) Trade or Business Fairs that are held yearly worldwide? We list a number of the largest International Fairs coming up in the next few months, on our website, but there are of course many others.
If so, did you know that here at Medway Travel we have a specialist team to handle all such arrangements. Our consultants have a truly excellent understanding of what is involved and the ability to make your arrangements at best available rates, using our local ground agents where necessary. Thus we can ensure your trip is made in the most cost effective way, whilst catering for all your requirements.
Our normal practice is to "block reserve" the travel arrangements and hotel accommodation well in advance of the event. At that time we would request a 20% deposit of the estimated cost. These "bookings" can, usually, be amended up to one month prior to date of the event at which point details (such as names and numbers of attendees) must then be forwarded to the appropriate carriers and hotels.
We can thus ensure that however heavy the demand, your travel arrangements are guaranteed, and you will have more convenient accommodation at the most advantageous rates for your travellers.
If you are planning to attend any such fairs within the next 12 to 18 months, the earlier you let us know of your intention to travel, the better will be the deals and choice we can obtain for you on airfares and hotel accommodation.
We would therefore strongly recommend you give us the dates of all the fairs your company intends to attend, as far in advance as you can, and our team will recommend when would be best for us to start the block booking process.
We will from then on remind you at the appropriate times before these regular events, to ensure you have the best choice of arrangements and to save you from the last minute scramble for adequate accommodation (with the higher costs that can be invoved in late bookings).
Please also remember that major savings are possible for groups of 9 or more travelling together, as we then negotiate special group rates with the airlines and hotels.
If you have any Group or Trade Fair requests please contact us and our consultants will be only too pleased to help with your enquiry.
