Top luxury brands like Kerzner International, Jumeirah International, and Hyatt International are set to attend, making ATM 2024 a platform to explore the dynamic landscape of luxury travel. The global luxury travel sector, valued at approximately $1.28 trillion in 2022, is expected to witness a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.7% from 2023-30, reflecting a broader trend seen in the Middle East.

Innovation plays a crucial role, with technologies such as virtual reality, augmented reality, artificial intelligence, and big data revolutionizing how travelers plan and experience destinations. Danielle Curtis, Exhibition Director of Arabian Travel Market, states that the event aims to set a new standard for the travel industry, where indulgence harmonizes with ethics.

The 31st edition of ATM, themed ‘Empowering Innovation: Transforming Travel Through Entrepreneurship,’ will bring together policymakers, industry leaders, and travel professionals to discuss innovations shaping the future of global travel and tourism. Environmental responsibility will be a key focus, aligning with the UAE’s Year of Sustainability and the 2023 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP28) in Dubai.
