Dubai's hotel sector is gearing up for Expo 2020 Dubai, to take place from October 1, 2021, to March 31, 2022, while recovery from the Covid-19 pandemic is gaining momentum globally.
With Expo 2020’s theme of 'Connecting Minds, Creating the Future', as well as its sub-themes of Opportunity, Mobility and Sustainability, Dubai will welcome visitors from all parts of the globe to join the making of a new world, as it brings the planet together in one place to reimagine tomorrow. The event comes at a time when the UAE is getting ready to celebrate its Golden Jubilee as well, reported Wam.
The UAE services and business sectors, spearheaded by the hotel, travel and tourism industry, have been working tirelessly to make visitors to the Expo enjoy a safe, inspiring and unforgettable experience during the six-month event, it stated.
Wego, which specialises in travel services and online reservations, revealed that it witnessed, through its website, about 533,000 searches during July, on flights and hotels for the period in which Expo 2020 will be held.
"This indicates the increasing demand that Dubai is witnessing, and the rapid recovery of the business tourism sector, noting that in light of the preparations for Expo 2020 Dubai, hotels have begun to allocate packages and extended stay offers specifically for visitors to the exhibition," it added.
