World Travel Chat is a project that aims to help Travel Associations to increase the loyalty of their members and evoke interest among new members.

The idea of World Travel Chat is designed by travel professions.

Our team is international and consists of:

Founders of travel associations CEOs of inbound and outbound tour operators Former heads of tourism authorities.

We talked with more than 30 Travel Association from various parts of the world, and here are the issues they raised:
  • Expansion
    Success in attracting new members speaks for the power and recognition of a Travel Association
  • Keeling the loyalty
    Making sure that current members understand the benefits of being a part of a Travel Association. Simply said, there is a clarity what members pay for.
  • Cooperation with other Associations
    There are just a few examples where Travel Associations act together to boost tourism development and to overcome regional issues and sometimes burocracy
  • Different internet habits
    Every country is used to different messengers, digital tools and communication strategies. And this makes it hard to connect and share best practices
How can World Travel Chat solve these issues and help Travel Associations in their transformation to the digital environment of the 21st Century?
What can World Travel Chat offer to the Members of Travel Associations
Happy members with a clear understanding of the value for the price and thus continue paying membership fees
Association members get access to the digital marketing platform WTChat.travel. This allows to become visible for MICE agencies, outbound tour operators who search for partners, inbound tour operators who can offer unique travel products and access to professional events.
Opportunities to attract new members
World Travel Chat aims to organize useful professional events for tourism community. The promotion of these events will be the responsibility of our Platform Administration. In our promotion materials it will be emphasized, that the access to the events is only distributed to the members of YOUR Travel Association. Indeed, the registration process to the events will not allow strangers to join.
Cooperation with other Travel Associations
While there have been a few attempts to unite Travel Associations under the umbrella of various organizations, we offer a strategy that is unique to the market. Constantly organizing professional events with the involvement of Associations as speakers. During the one-month period around the Event, we facilitate the discussions between participants and create a space for a dialogue. Also, WTChat.travel functionality removes the language barriers and provides unified communication tool.
A road to World Tourism Alliance
World Tourism Alliance is a comprehensive, global, non-government and non-profit organization based in Hangzhou, China. It is growing rapidly and is enjoying rivalry with UNWTO organization. World Tourism Alliance is a co-organizer of our events and is often present as a speaker. We are happy to initiate the process of membership in WTA for YOUR Travel Association, in order to increase the world recognition for Association you represent
Open up the Chinese market for your members
While WTC focuses on providing worldwide networking opportunities, Chinese travel markets remains of special attraction due to its unleashed potential. Yet, getting contacts in China is not so easy due to the difference in internet habits. Some Chinese travel companies to not have WEBs, emails do not go through and western messengers are replaces by WeChat. Word of mouth, personal connections and loyalty are the key elements of Chinese way of doing business. This is why establishing contacts might be challenging for newcomers.
