Event Overview
While most global industry leaders are charting their courses cautiously, some are looking at creating exciting new opportunities or entering new markets in the midst of the crisis.

China's air traffic also exceeded a 15.8% growth rate on a year-to-year basis.
Just how different are current entry strategies, and what tactics offer the best chance at making a real breakthrough in the China market and navigating through this challenging time? How are travel and tourism organizations collaborating to enhance market share and to revitalize the tourism and travel economy?
C-level executives and senior management leaders from travel and tourism will take center stage at the China Travel Distribution Summit September 21-22, 2011 to address the core issues affecting the heart of their industry.
