Hays Travel to host more than 1,000 delegates at overseas conferences

Hays Travel will host more than 1,100 delegates in Turkey for its annual conferences later this month.

The four-star Ela Excellence Resort Belek resort (pictured) will host the agency’s retail conference from November 11 to 15, which it says will be the “UK’s largest overseas travel event of its kind this year”.

The event will welcome 700 managers and employees from branches across the UK, including the recently acquired Miles Morgan Travel and Travel House.

It will be followed by the conference for the Hays Travel Independence Group and Homeworking division, which takes place at the same resort from November 15 to 18.

Travel operators, supplier partners and sponsors will also attend both events.

The theme of this year’s conference is ‘in it for the long-haul’ to represent growth in travel to far-off destinations and building long-term loyalty with businesses, clients and partners.

Hays Travel owner Dame Irene Hays said: “Our annual overseas conference is the highlight of the year, where we connect with colleagues and members across our group in preparation for January’s peak sales period.

“It’s an opportunity to spend quality time engaging with our brilliant retail team, Independence Group, and homeworker members – all of whom are doing exceptional work to care for customers’ travel needs.”
