Arabian Courtyard Hotel & Spa, located in the heart of the ancient cultural district of Dubai, will provide visitors and exhibitors at this year’s Arabian Travel Market (ATM) an insight on how the property had survived and exceeded customer expectations amidst the global crises that has greatly affected the travel and hospitality industry.

ATM, the region’s leading travel exhibition running from 30^th April to 3^rd May, 2012 at the Dubai International Exhibition Centre will help unlock business potentials within the Middle East for inbound and outbound tourism. The event will feature tourism destinations from the Middle East and around the world showcasing a diverse range of accommodation options, breathtaking tourism attractions and new airline routes.

Habib Khan, General Manager of the hotel and CEO Hospitality Division of Planet Group, said: “ATM offers multidimensional opportunities and exposures. We would like to capitalise on our ability to weather the past few years of global crises and yet able to meet and exceed customer expectations in our hotels and associated companies in Planet Group. These are the positive notes that we would like to send to the industry and clients alike. Our aim will be to provide the visitors a sense of achievement making their visit a worthwhile exercise by projecting confidence in UAE in general and Dubai in particular, the city having a safe, progressive and dynamic economy!”

The property, exhibiting since 1996 at the region’s annual travel and tourism event, will support the Dubai government in promoting Dubai as a Destination and the UAE. This year’s show is expected to gather more visitors and exhibitors as the tourism market in the country is picking up and a number of hotel developers are restarting projects that were put on hold in 2009 as a result of the economic downtown.

Arabian Courtyard Hotel & Spa will be exhibiting along with its sister company, Planet Travel & Tour under the Department of Tourism & Commerce Marketing (DTCM) pavilion. The team will be present during the four-day exhibition to meet existing clients to thank them for their business and support and at the same time, meet with potential clients to update them with the hotel’s products and services.
