Roseau, Dominica – (October 18, 2022) Discover Dominica Authority recently participated in
CHTA’S Caribbean Travel Marketplace 2022, held in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The Authority’s
representatives, Destination Marketing Manager, Kimberly King, Michelle Gysberts, and Cherise Stevens
(North American Representatives) attended the three-day trade event.
The CHTA Caribbean Travel Marketplace provides the opportunity to meet face-to-face with top-tier
wholesalers, tour operators, travel agencies, and publishers from the U.S. focused on selling and
promoting Caribbean travel. In addition to tourism boards, the event hosts other types of suppliers
including, accommodations, attractions, DMCs, transportation companies, buyers, and marketing/media
for two days of pre-scheduled appointments. The main objective of the show is for attendees to conduct
negotiations that will ultimately benefit the region.
A total of twenty-five (25) scheduled meetings were held with buyers, media, and relevant publishers over the period which resulted in positive conversations. Key opportunities are to follow up with American Airlines Vacations and Great Value Vacations among others. At the press conference, there were several questions and interest about the new airport, flight routes, the World Creole Music Festival, and the new Waitukubuli Sea Trail. “Dominica has proven its resiliency, and the Caribbean region as a whole has recovered. I can confirm that the interest is there based on the several talks I’ve had at Marketplace this year, but it will take a collective effort to take advantage of these opportunities. The data is also informing us that some of the most resilient origin markets to the Caribbean like the U.S.A and France (mainland) are impacting visitor arrivals to the region, and we must capitalize on this.” – Kimberly King, Destination Marketing Manager.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
