HCMC – Dubai will introduce its tourism image in HCMC for the first time in September, with enterprises from the UAE also visiting to try and understand the city’s outbound tourist market.
Nguyen Bao Anh, deputy head of the HCMC Tourism Promotion Division, said that leaders of Dubai Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing have said they will attend the International Travel Expo HCMC in September.
On this occasion, Emirates and Etihad Airways will arrange for UAE’s travel enterprises to come to HCMC to visit the expo.
“This is a good signal as Dubai and UAE as a whole is a potential market of HCMC’s tourists. Next month, HCMC will join the tourism fair Arabian Travel Market in Dubai to promote the city’s tourism,” Anh told the Daily on Tuesday after a working trip to Dubai with HCMC’s representatives last week.
According to Anh, now that Emirates operates daily direct flights to HCMC, Etihad Airways also plans to offer a service from Dubai to HCMC with three flights per week with the first set to be launched in October.
