Dnata World Travel to enter India

To open centralized travel service offices in Delhi, Mumbai

Dnata World Travel has announced it will extend its global reach by entering into the Indian travel market.

Initially focusing on bringing Dnata 's expertise in the Corporate Travel sector to travellers in India, Dnata expects to commence operations by the second quarter of 2011. More than a hundred staff will be recruited to provide services in a centralised travel service contact centre, with offices in Delhi and Mumbai, said a press statement.

With an established and successful network across the GCC, Dnata World Travel sees a great deal of potential in its expansion into India, where it will offer its knowledge and experience across all aspects of travel management, including airline bookings. It will also focus on corporate travel, as well as the Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions market. There are also plans to expand its Indian operations still further later on, by extending their business to introduce retail and online booking.

The announcement was made by Abdulla Tawakul, Senior Vice President, Corporate and Regional Network, Dnata Travel Services, at the ongoing Business Travel Show in Dubai.

"Unlike other regional ventures we have undertaken, we will not be taking on a local partner, but running the business and making the total investment ourselves," he said.
