significant ties to Tanzania. In May 1998, ATA held
its first-ever Congress in Arusha; and in December
2003, Zanzibar hosted ATA's Eco and Cultural
Tourism Symposium. Tanzania also led the
association for four years, holding the position of
President of the ATA International Board of
Directors. More-> Leon

Hotels, the
second serious global luxury hotel and resort group
in the region after Fairmont, are also said to be
monitoring the market carefully while exploring
opportunities to further expand into the region
beyond their present two properties in Dar es
Salaam and Zanzibar. Watch this space for emerging
news. Amant Macha,
Marketing Director, TTB said Tanzania's
transatlantic access will receive a big boost this
summer with Qatar Airways launching its new
transatlantic service. Qatar will offer daily
connections to Dar es Salaam via Doha from
Washington DC Dulles International airport, and
four flights a week from Newark International
Airport. The existing new flights options are added
to the International Airport via Addis Ababa,
Ethiopia; KLM Northwest's daily service from all
its US gateways into Dar es salaam and Kilimanjaro
Airports ; Emirates flights from New York via
Dubai; and British Airways flights from US gateways
via London to Dar es Salaam. Bill

Zanzibar.
It is the first beach resort for the group but
notably not in Kenya but Zanzibar, probably a
pointer to further expansion plans for the region.
In Uganda however the group has not commenced
construction of their hotel project in Kampala,
after being given a somewhat controversial land
grant in the city, which forced a primary school
and teachers college to relocate. After the school
was demolished, the proposed construction area is
now a sorry sight to behold. Government had hoped
that Kingdom Hotels would have their promised 5
star hotel ready for the Commonwealth Summit later
this year but may now have to wait much longer, as
the hotel capacity in Kampala is considered rather
on the excess side of supplies, once the one off
summit is over.
