It is also a fact that the people of the West<br />

Nordic countries have a special ability of<br />

making their guests feel welcome. They<br />

consider their guests as friends, and they<br />

know how to enjoy both their friends and<br />

themselves. If you want to have this explained,<br />

please contact one of the participants.<br />

The organizers also find that the participants<br />

should bring some new impulses<br />

back home. They had brought in Nick Hall<br />

as the keynote speaker. He addressed the<br />

audience with the digital trends in travel.<br />

Quite a few of his theories surprised the<br />

segment that is not dependent on being<br />

on-line 27/7.<br />

Even better forecast for 2016<br />

Whether you like it or not these are the<br />

new customers of the travel industry. The<br />

Director of Promote Iceland, Inga Hlín<br />

Pálsdóttir emphazised that young people<br />

actually buy package tours and not necessarily<br />

organize trips themselves.<br />

The representatives for the tourist<br />

councils of the three West Nordic nations<br />

agreed on a very satisfactory 2015-season<br />

with a forecast looking even better for<br />

2016.<br />

The magazine TTO Scandinavia, which<br />

you are reading this very moment, would<br />

also like to take credit for a <strong>nov</strong>elty to the<br />

arrangement. We introduced the Vestnorden<br />

Travel Award. You can read about the<br />

prize and the winners on another page in<br />

this publication.<br />

The 31 st Vestnorden Travel Mart will be<br />

October 4 th – 6 th in Reykjavík, Iceland.<br />

Four representatives<br />

from the three West<br />

Nordic nations were<br />

looking forward to<br />

seeing even greater<br />

interest in their<br />

common destinations.<br />
