Dubai will also welcome the global travel industry for Arabian Travel Market later this year (Sept. 14 to Sept. 17), bringing destinations, tourism businesses and industry leaders together for one of the city\u2019s major international business events.<\/p>\n
Issam Kazim, CEO of the\u00a0Dubai\u00a0Corporation for Tourism and Commerce Marketing (Visit\u00a0Dubai), part of DET said:\u00a0\u201cRecent announcements reflect the positive progress we are seeing across the region.

And Kazim continued: \u201cFor us in\u00a0Dubai, the safety of our residents and visitors has remained, and will always be, our highest priority. Hotels, attractions, restaurants, retail destinations and transport networks have continued to operate, underpinned by close coordination across the public and private sectors.\u201d<\/p>\n
He also pointed out that: \u201cWith connectivity continuing to strengthen and a full calendar of events, exhibitions and new openings ahead, we look forward to welcoming Canadians to discover, or rediscover, the warm hospitality and experiences our city is known for.\u00a0Dubai\u00a0is moving forward with confidence, and we are grateful for the continued trust and support of our partners and visitors.\u201d<\/p>\n
