UNWTO will be promoting their organisation at AITF whilst organising the seminars in Azerbaijan’s capital city.
Sales and Event Manager, Jitka Massolini states: “Azerbaijan’s outbound tourism potential has been increasing year-on-year with annual departures exceeding 3.5 million. Not only is Azerbaijan the largest country in the Caucasus region, its GDP is expected to grow by 6.7% in 2014. AITF enables international destinations to promote their offers to this transient population that is both demographically young and eager to experience new cultures, food and traditions.”
