TCA takes roadshow to US

Dubai: Abu Dhabi’s Tourism and Culture Authority (TCA) kicked off a three-city roadshow to the United States recently to help promote tourism in the UAE capital and encourage more Americans to visit the country.

A TCA delegation visited New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles, where it also met with major travel agents and key influencers from some US-based travel organisations.

In the first five months of 2017, Abu Dhabi welcomed 67,000 American hotel guests, making the US the fifth largest overseas source market for the emirate.
