Updates from KAI - March 2020
Dear Partners in Travel,
As we navigate the current global situation and its impact on both day-to-day life and our beloved industry, we at KAI want to continue with our monthly newsletter and share some positive news and updates from our award-winning portfolio and team. While no one can predict how long this will last, I am supremely confident that this too shall pass, and the industry will come back stronger than ever. The travel industry is resilient like none other and it is the camaraderie and shared passion that drew us all to it. If you want to have a chat about the industry, any of our partners, recovery strategy, or if you’re like me and you’d rather get your mind off it by talking about the Yankees chances of winning the World Series, pick up the phone and give us a call.
Thanks for your continued support and passion. A career in travel would be just another job if it wasn’t for you.
Best,
DK
EXPO 2020 in Dubai!
Dubai will host the world for 173 days for EXPO 2020 starting this October, with each day brimming with new experiences. It’ll be a time to create, collaborate and innovate. And it’s going to be fun! We’re talking eye-catching, mind-bending, taste bud-tickling, grin-inducing, good-weird, did-that-really-just-happen fun. Come along, or spend a lifetime telling less interesting stories.
If you’d like to experience Expo 2020, which will include 192 country pavilions, over 200 restaurants and 60 live shows per day our partners at Eastbound would be happy to help. As an authorized seller of event tickets Eastbound can help you plan your visit to the Expo, whether you’re keen to spend a week and see it all or just spend a day seeing some of the highlights (Sample 1 Day Program ) as you pass through Dubai on the way to another destination.
In an effort to help you plan, here is the Factsheet on the Expo and a Calendar of Special Days over the course of the event.
