When it comes to promoting trade relations with China, there’s only one company in India which has contributed significantly enough to be felicitated repeatedly by the Chinese themselves. Orbitz Corporate & Leisure Travels Pvt Ltd. has earned the enviable distinction of having bagged a prestigious award for 2009 from China National Tourism Office (CNTO). The award is in recognition of Orbitz’s immense efforts at mobilising a sizeable percentage of India’s total outbound traffic particularly to China. The award was given by Ms Alice Wang Director CNTO office New Delhi, Mr Edward (Country Head China Eastern Airlines) & Country head of Air China.
Earlier, in (2007-08), Orbitz had been felicitated by the organizers of China Plas as the Travel Company which led the maximum and record breaking Indian delegations to China Plas. In the same year Orbitz delegations got a rousing welcome by the organizers of Canton Fair as the numbers were most impressive for any single tour operator anywhere in the world!
Orbitz have led the highest ever number of business delegates from India to China. At Orbitz, being awarded by various Chinese trade bodies has become a regular feature of its China operations. So much so, Orbitz prides in the fact that it is a destination specialist for China - be it M.I.C.E. or leisure travel.
Business Tours is Orbitz’s undisputed domain - one in which it continues to reign supreme thanks to a team of professionals with over 25 years experience in pioneering International Trade Fair Travel. The Business Tours division churns out travel packages to over 500 of the world’s leading trade fairs thereby bringing people and technologies together. Consequently, it opened avenues to technological progress. Indian businesses grew globally competitive, witnessed improved efficiency and enjoyed enhanced profitability.
In the last 3 years, Orbitz is responsible for having led over 16000 delegates on business delegations to various trade fairs, Incentives & Leisure travel in China alone.
The reason for Orbitz’s high success rate is that it caters to more than just the travel needs of individuals, groups or institutions. Due to its customer-centric approach, all its services are meticulously conceived and immaculately rendered. In addition to thoughtfully provided city centre hotels, Indian meals and excellent transfers, Orbitz is better known for its value-added services like arranging Factory Visits, Buyer Seller Meetings, Association and Chamber Meetings and for providing Used Machinery Contacts. Having pioneered ”Study Tours” to those countries specializing in certain areas of industry, trade or agriculture that highlight their working culture, material management, Orbitz has contributed substantially towards enhancing export-import relations and bilateral trade between India and the host country.
Another exemplary ‘activity’ for which Orbitz has won much acclaim is the Industry Networking Night. Such get-togethers are aimed at building camaraderie and provide an excellent opportunity for industry professionals to network in an informal setting and have a good time. Organized post the Trade Fair these networking nights are hosted either on board a cruise, or entail chartering of theatres and public places. They are replete with DJ music, professional entertainment, free flowing spirits and gala dinner. Such get-togethers are a regular feature on all the leading trade fair tours to China.
In view of the above and with the economic slowdown on the wane, it is not surprising that many more accolades and awards are to come its way since Orbitz is now in top gear and once again on the fast track.
