HARARE - Zimbabwe's leading travel agents have been exploring the excitement of Dubai thanks to a special workshop in Harare hosted by Emirates, which flies daily from Harare to Lusaka and Dubai.
Some 50 industry representatives gathered to hear more about the experiences on offer for Emirates passengers with a Dubai stopover.
Este McGalty from Dubai Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing was on hand to explain some of the many attractions, and the workshop was followed by an evening networking function for managers hosted by Emirates Country Manager Paulos Legesse.
"Together, a flight with Emirates and a stopover in Dubai create an unbeatable game-changer. It is an experience that turns a journey into an adventure as you discover new cultures; fabulous food; and first-class service – in all classes," Mr Legesse told the guests.
It is just over two years since Emirates added Harare to its global network, which now spans more than 140 destinations in 80 countries, connecting people and places through the airline's hub in Dubai.
A stopover in Dubai is an experience in itself: as well as the world class shopping for which it is famed. Dubai has also become a global centre for sports events, concerts and an increasing number of cultural activities.
The city is also home to an impressive display of modern architecture, contrasting with its natural beaches and magnificent desert landscapes –a rich backdrop for visitors and photography enthusiasts.
Mr Legesse also outlined Emirates' new service to Boston, USA, starting on March 10, talked about the airline's growing fleet of A380 aircraft, and its sponsorship of the Rugby World Cup.
He also highlighted that Emirates fares offer real value for money. When flying with Emirates customers will experience its award-winning service and entertainment, on board comfort and modern aircraft.
