The sales force from the Coral Beach Resort – Sharjah will be heading to Moscow for the annual MITT travel exhibition this month in a bid to secure more visitors from both Northern Russia and surrounding markets, including Finland and Scandinavian countries.

It is the first time for the resort to have a presence at the major show that is aimed to promote Sharjah and the Arabian Gulf as a destination for summer as well as traditional winter sun packages.

According to Jean-Pierre Simon, Regional General Manager, Northern Emirates, Coral Hotels & Resorts, MITT is Russia’s leading travel show with more than 3,000 participating companies and nearly 200 destinations on show.

“This is the 20th year of MITT, and last year there were

some 83,000 visitors of whom 74 per cent were trade professionals – exactly the type of contacts we need to showcase our summer packages and build the reputation of the Coral Beach Resort as a year-round destination for families,” he said.

“We know expansion of air connections will help here, with Air Arabia growth of 13 per cent last year while flydubai recorded a massive 285 per cent increase from the CIS and Central and East European markets in 2012, with more than 40 per cent of its route development focused on these areas.”

The Coral Beach Resort – Sharjah features 156 spacious rooms, many with panoramic sea-view. A major attraction is the wide repertoire of dining options with menus to cater to every taste. The resort is located on one of the emirate’s principal sand beaches and features a range of leisure activities for all ages, including the Rimal Club, state-of-the-art fitness centre, children’s pool, indoor playroom and complimentary Kid’s Club as well as tennis, badminton, volleyball and two outdoor swimming pools.
