The global tourism and travel sector is witnessing continuous growth, buoyed by rising demand for international trips and an expanding landscape for both business and leisure travel. In this context, Dubai is cementing its status as one of the top global tourist destinations, thanks to its advanced infrastructure, diverse array of tourism offerings, and its ability to attract visitors from various markets. Hotels in the region are increasingly seeking to enhance their international presence through strategic partnerships and direct engagement with tour operators and industry partners to draw in more visitors and support tourism growth.
In alignment with this trend, the Al Bandar Rotana and Al Bandar Arjaan by Rotana are enhancing their international standing. This effort includes strategic outreach to travel organisers and specialists in the travel sector, in addition to participating in the World Travel Market (WTM) London 2026.
These initiatives reflect the hotels’ dedication to building trust with travellers, strengthening existing partnerships, and exploring new business opportunities while promoting Dubai as a safe, welcoming, and world-class destination for both leisure and business travellers.
Ayman Ashour, General Manager of Al Bandar Rotana and Al Bandar Arjaan by Rotana, emphasised the importance of maintaining strong international relationships, particularly in light of the regional and global changes affecting the travel sector.
Ashour stated, “Strong partnerships and open communication have become more critical than ever. Our international meetings provide valuable opportunities to reconnect with our partners in the travel sector, understand the evolving expectations of travellers, and strengthen the confidence in Dubai as a tourist destination. With its world-class infrastructure, diverse experiences, exceptional hospitality, and unwavering commitment to safety and security, Dubai continues to offer compelling reasons for travellers to visit. We are committed to working closely with our partners to reinforce this trust and open new avenues for future opportunities.”
In addition to enhancing business relationships, these meetings allow for the unique lifestyle experiences and accommodation offerings provided by the hotels to be showcased.
