What Are Private Sales Missions?
​
Private sales missions are exclusive, targeted outreach efforts that enable your organization to meet directly with tour operators, OTAs, travel agents,, and other industry stakeholders who are responsible for purchasing travel trade products and developing and marketing travel itineraries. Unlike larger, general trade events, these missions are personalized to your specific goals, ensuring meaningful interactions that produce measurable results.
