Dnata and Travel Counsellors will present a new tourism model in the UAE

Dnata, one of the largest airline service providers, and Travel Counsellors, a leading travel agency, have signed a partnership agreement. Until the end of this year, 20 "home" agents from among the inhabitants of the United Arab Emirates will be hired to work under the joint venture, who will undergo the necessary training and education. Then, a new model of working with tourists will be distributed in all countries of the GCC. Founded in 1994, Travel Counsellors has a network of representatives around the world who act as personal consultants in the selection of travel. Currently, the company employs more than 1.1 thousand people from the UK, Ireland, the Netherlands, South Africa, Australia and Canada. They run their business from home, receiving directions from central offices.

The joint venture of Dnata and Travel Counsellors will operate in the UAE, and its employees will have access to all global network resources. "For Dnata, combining with the service of personal consultants is a natural phenomenon, because we are constantly looking for new contacts at the regional level. The travel company’s business model is ideal for our business, and we hope that it will benefit not only us, but also all residents of the country" ”, said Jan Andrew, senior vice president of travel services at Dnata. “We are growing from year to year and have proved to everyone that we can prosper even in a crisis. We feel that we have chosen the right time to expand our business in the Middle East, and we believe that the UAE market will be ideal for us - both in terms of economy and as a bridgehead for exploring the entire region, "said Steve Byrne, managing director of Travel Counsellors.

The Dubai branch will be managed by a renowned travel market professional, Harvey Lines, a former Middle East operations director for Wings Travel Management. He will be responsible for business development in the UAE, recruitment and promotion of the best agents in the travel and business tourism segments.
