Visit USA commences regional expos

Visit USA Travel Agent Expos will be held in the Gold Coast and Newcastle this month and Campbelltown early next month.

Agents will have an opportunity to network with key USA experts over a two course dinner.

“We are delighted that the Visit USA’s annual road show will roll in to the regional cities including the Gold Coast – my home town,” said Visit USA President Kylee Kay.

“Agents can find out what’s new, update their destination knowledge and feel empowered to confidently promote and sell the USA to their clientele.”

Over 15 product and destination representatives will be on hand to impart useful selling tips, current information and provide collateral. Informative destination presentations and videos will be shown across the evening event.

Some lucky agents will go home with some incredible prizes, including an air ticket to LAX with Fiji Airways.

The Expos will next head to Perth, Cairns and Townsville in September and October.

Agents interested in attending can RSVP through the Visit USA website link here.
