International Markets
PATA Forum presentation
Albert Einstein once said: "Without the numbers, you don't have a science".
Chris Flynn, Regional Director Pacific for PATA, recently visited Darwin and Alice Springs and presented to the NT tourism industry. The topics covered included changes to the distribution systems around the world, and the opportunities and impediments to tourism growth. His presentation also addressed the short-haul market possibilities from Asia.

Latest Americas Market Update
Al Merschen, Manager Strategy & Planning in our US office, was recently in Darwin and updated the local industry on the latest information from the US market. He covered issues currently affecting the market and identified the opportunities for NT Operators. The main message Al shared is that while the US might be going through some difficult economic times, don't discount them as a source of visitors - you MUST stay in touch with your US contacts and keep them informed about you and the experiences you offer.
