Emirates, in partnership with DMC Kuoni Tumlare, recently hosted a group of travel trade partners from Singapore on a four-day familiarisation trip to Dubai to strengthen destination knowledge and support travel sales.
Representatives from Singapore travel agencies and tour operators visited attractions including Dubai Marina, Palm Jumeirah, Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall, Burj Al Arab and Madinat Jumeirah. The programme also included a day trip to Abu Dhabi, with visits to Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, Qasr Al Watan and Yas Island.
Participants also toured the Emirates Crew Training Centre, gaining insight into the airline’s cabin crew training programmes and operations.
Rashed Alfajeer, Emirates’ country manager for Singapore and Brunei, said the trip aimed to deepen engagement with the Singapore market by giving travel partners first-hand experience of Dubai and the UAE.
Emirates operates four daily flights between Singapore and Dubai using Airbus A380 and Boeing 777 aircraft, as well as a daily non-stop service between Singapore and Phnom Penh.
