I’m off to the World Travel Market, are you?

By Darren Cronian on Friday, August 3rd, 2007

Well, I’m more organised this year, and I have booked my hotel and train for the World Travel Market in November. Even though Victoria is a little out of the way from Excel in the Docklands, it was hassle free to get there on the tube last year, and with a 4-day underground pass, it doesn’t work out to be too expensive.

I'm off to the World Travel Market, are you?

I’ll be in London from 13 November – 16 November, so if there’s any other bloggers, or travel companies that want to meet up for a coffee, or beer, then drop me an email and we’ll make arrangements. I’ll have a good two days to get around the exhibition, and you need that really because the Excel exhibition centre is massive.

I’m staying in the Best Western Hotel, on Warwick Road, which is only a few minutes away from Victoria, and then you’re on the District line until the Monument, and then move onto the Docklands Light Railway, which I was impressed with last time.

I work for the FCO, and we will have representatives at the WTM in London so I’d love to meet up for a chat, but I am only at the WTM on the monday. Do you not plan to be there for the opening day?

Hi Susan, thanks for dropping by.

What is your role in the FCO? It’s usual for people to be working on a Sunday!

I thought Monday was only invites? I’ve not yet received an invite for the Monday yet [hint hint] but if I did I’d more than likely extend my stay in London, as I have booked the full week off work.

I work for a pharmacy company, and we spent a week in London and stayed at a Best Western hotel and I was very impressed. We’ve stayed in hotels in London that were £15 cheaper, but they were dreadful.

I’ve just come back from spending a few days in the Jury’s Inn near Heathrow and it was a nice hotel. A little pricey for me, thankfully work paid for the hotel.

London hotels are dreadfully expensive.

If there’s a few of you going, you might want to look into managed apartments.

I’ll be there

Will drop you an email as I don’t want to publically say who I work for.

Okay Rob.

Look forward to the email.
