I am extremely happy to be here at OTM 2019. It is specially heartening to note that the organisers pioneered these shows three decades ago and are organising them

on a sustainable basis, without subsidy.

This is my first time at OTM and I’m utterly impressed with the quality of exhibits. I’m quite overwhelmed. I had a great experience at OTM 2019 and you are enticing us

to want to be here ourselves. I would like to congratulate Team OTM. Really good job!

OTM 2019 was a great platform to showcase our varied tourism products. I want to congratulate the organisers for the fantastic job they have done by pulling off such a great and organised show. We will continue to give our support to OTM and Fairfest Media in the coming future.

OTM is a genuine travel show for real business. Last year we had a good number of travellers from India. This year we are focussing on the wedding market and film tourism. With OTM conducting programmes like Cine Locales for film tourism, it is opening new avenues for us. We also met few wedding planners and had serious discussions with them.

This was my third time in OTM and it is the best platform to connect with suppliers from all over the world. This time too we have connected with many quality suppliers. We

have received good business from the DMCs and countries

participating here at OTM. It was a pleasure for me to

attend OTM.

OTM is a fantastic show. Everyone who comes here, whether it’s a supplier or a

buyer all are happy to be a part of the show. The business this

show generates is outstanding. OTM definitely helps the

outbound travel sector grow in number. I would like to see the organisers holding such great

shows.

It was my first time at OTM and I was overwhelmed to see such quality suppliers from all over the world. It was a great opportunity for travel agents like me to network with such

quality support under one roof. It was a very well-organised

event. Keep it up.

The quality of exhibitors here at OTM was just outstanding.

It was a wonderful experience for me to be present here and network with such high-quality

suppliers. This time we also met new suppliers from all over India and the world. The online meeting diary feature was very

helpful.

OTM is a great platform as it provides us with the new

trends in the travel industry and supplies us with all the important information. My

focus is Tier II cities of India and OTM helps me by providing quality suppliers to serve these cities. It was a fantastic show.

OTM is one of the best platforms to network with quality suppliers from 50

Countries and 30 States. OTM was very beneficial for us as we got many such quality suppliers

under the same roof.
