Jagsons Travels will host its 3rd Global Panorama Showcase from February 8- 10, 2015, at Hotel Centre Point in Nagpur. The theme for this year’s show will be ‘Explore the Heart of India’. The three-day show will be open for end consumers on its first day, while the second and third day will be dedicated to the travel trade.
Speaking to Express TravelWorld, Harmandeep Singh Anand, managing director, Jagsons Travels said, “Nagpur, being the heart of India, we want the sellers and buyers to explore this region. This year we are expecting about 100 plus suppliers with 150 plus products. The venue for this edition will be three times bigger than the previous ones.”
The Global Panorama Showcase 2015 will witness participation from over 100 exhibitors comprising hoteliers, airlines, tourism boards, visa facilitation companies, travel insurance, foreign exchange currency providers, tour operators, international roaming SIM card brands, cruise companies, event management companies, online booking engines, etc.
Speaking about the participation Anand said, “Currently we are in talks with some state tourism boards as well as international boards. The focus will be to get all the products under one roof. This year we have organised 10 presentations on education, which is our main focus. There will be a presentation by Trawelltag. This year we have IndiGo as our airline partner and we are also trying to partner with Srilankan Airlines, Emirates and Oman Air.
Speaking about the challenges of central India, Anand explained, “The biggest challenge in central India is the travel agents cannot afford to attend all the major travel marts and events. The agents also have a fear of communication, to break this barrier and further motivate the agents is our motto.”
