The conference of WTAAA (World Travel Agents’ Associations Alliance), held 28-29 November in Athens, identified trends and priorities shared by tourism professionals in markets across the globe, and led to Memorandums of Cooperation between HATTA & FedHATTA and tourism associations of Latin America, Colombia, Canada, and India.

Seeking to adapt organized tourism to modern travel trends, promote sustainability and meet the challenges of the digital transformation, the presidents of HATTA and FedHATTA signed Memoranda of Cooperation with the associations of travel agencies and tour operators of Latin American countries (FOLATUR – Foro Latinoamericano de Turismo), Colombia (ANATO – Asociacion Colombiana de Agencias de Viajes y Turismo), Canada (ACTA – Association of Canadian Travel Agencies), and India (TAFI – Travel Agents’ Federation of India).

These Memoranda of Cooperation will contribute to increasing tourism flows to Greece, and will develop the foundation for sharing knowledge and best practices in markets of importance to the Greek travel industry.
