| The .travel team has just returned from a week abroad in London, which was jam packed with functions, interviews, meetings, and more!
The week began with the European Tour Operators Association (ETOA) conference and workshop. The .travel team had the opportunity to interview with eTurboNews, TravelMole, On the Road, and Travel Breaking News. Additionally, .travel was the exclusive sponsor of the ETOA workshop and had the chance to address all of the 500 attendees as well as hold 30 one-on-one conferences with members of ETOA. As an added perk, the .travel team was invited to the Annual Gala as special guests of Tom Jenkins, Executive Director of ETOA.

That evening, .travel hosted its TPI dinner, which allowed the opportunity for Edward A. Cespedes to present the future of .travel, listen to feedback, and answer questions.
On Tuesday, the .travel team had meetings and interviews at WTM with Fiona Jeffery and Tom Nutley of Reed Exhibitions and Just a Drop, Rupali Narasimham, editor of Trav Talk, David Tarsh, Managing Director of Tarsh Consulting, and two presentations for .travel's Romanian partners and their Russian partners. Additionally, many of their international partners took advantage of stopping by the ETOA booth to follow up with the .travel executive team regarding some of their strategic plans.
On their final day in London, the .travel team took to the show floor and documented many of the organizations using .travel as their domain name, including: slovakia.travel, madeiraislands.travel, turismo-chile.travel, argentina.travel, climatesolutions.travel by the UNWTO, and many others. They also saw various signs throughout London, including Egypt.travel on the double-decker buses, and Poland.travel in the Tube!
