The road show was attended by representatives from Micronesian islands of Yap, Chuuk, Palau, Kosrae, Guam and Continental’s sales and marketing manager Lou Sanchez.
Kosrae is one of the best kept secrets in Micronesia in terms of diving and the island’s representatives highlighted its unique selling points to the members of the travel and media in Australia.
Since it is one of the least known destinations in Micronesia, a lot of interests for potential visitors were shown at the road show.
In addition to product seminar presentations, tabletop displays of collateral materials and free giveaways were provided by Kosrae participants.
“The Kosrae Visitors Bureau continues to maintain its efforts in attracting the leisure visitors to Kosrae and look forward to tap more of Australia’s dive market by collaborating with other tourism authorities within the region to promote its unique tourism qualities and assets. Micronesia is truly a premiere destination that is still unknown to the world and waiting to be discovered,” said Grant Ismael, KVB administrator and Pacific Asia Travel Association Micronesia chairman.
“We will continue to support Continental/United Airlines’ efforts to expand its greater Australian market promotion activities for the dive segment and plan to attend future promotional events in Australia.”
