China’s leading outbound<br />
travel exhibition<br />
The only business-to-business exhibition in China dedicated to the<br />
outbound travel market.<br />
COTTM 2012 WELCOMED RECORD NUMBERS<br />
China Outbound Travel & Tourism Market (COTTM), held in<br />
Beijing in April, saw an astounding 275 exhibitors from 60<br />
different countries showcase their destinations and travel<br />
services to 4,137 leading outbound tour operators from all over<br />
China. The 8th edition of the show confirmed COTTM’s<br />
undisputed status as the industry’s definitive business to<br />
business event for outbound tourism.<br />
COTTM 2012 welcomed brand new destinations such as<br />
Armenia, Cameroon, Ecuador, Montenegro & Serbia, Nepal,<br />
Seychelles and the Solomon Islands. Furthermore, a number<br />
of destinations made a welcome return to COTTM such as<br />
Bangladesh, Bulgaria, Dubai, Ethiopia and Iran, demonstrating<br />
the truly global reach of the show.<br />
In order to meet the demand for luxury travel, COTTM 2012<br />
launched the Luxury Travel Showcase, which proved to be the<br />
ideal way for qualified visitors to instantly find high-end travel<br />
services and discover more about what luxury travel has to<br />
offer the Chinese outbound market.<br />
One of the many other highlights during the show was the<br />
high-calibre seminar programme, for both visitors and<br />
exhibitors. Visitors could find out more about exhibitor<br />
products and services while exhibitors learned about outbound<br />
tourism trends, future challenges, commercial opportunities<br />
and government policies.<br />
With the success of the 2012 edition, COTTM is now a<br />
fantastic brand name in the marketplace, both for the<br />
international exhibitors as well as the Chinese outbound<br />
buyers.<br />

SAMPLE LIST OF BUYERS WHO ATTENDED COTTM 2012:<br />
CHINESE OUTBOUND TOURISM:<br />
China Tourism Academy (CTA) put the final figures of Chinese outbound<br />
travel at 70.25 million trips overseas in 2011, an increase of more than<br />
20% from 57.4 million trips in 2010; furthermore, CTA predicts the figure<br />
of Chinese outbound departures would increase to 78.4 million in 2012,<br />
which is a growth rate of 12% compared to the previous year. CTA also<br />
reported that the tourism spending of Chinese consumers is now over 69<br />
billion USD, a massive increase on the 55 billion USD spent by Chinese<br />
tourists in 2010. China's upper class is constantly growing and soon there<br />
will be more millionaires in China than in any other country. Luxury travel<br />
has made huge leaps; according to the Chinese Millionaires Wealth<br />
Report 2011 published by Hurun, the percentage of wealthy Chinese<br />
people that travel is now 29%, a large increase compared to 2009 when<br />
only 16% travelled.<br />

COMMENTS FROM OUR TOP TOUR OPERATORS AND BUYERS:<br />
The number of exhibitors at COTTM has<br />
increased significantly over the last few years.<br />
The exhibitors at the show are elite professional<br />
trade people in the tourism industry. I have<br />
gained a lot from visiting COTTM and continue<br />
to be impressed by the enthusiastic and<br />
professional exhibitors. We will always support<br />
this very important event.<br />
Mr Song Ding, General Manager, Liaoning<br />
China International Travel Service, Anshan<br />
Branch<br />
As one of COTTM's partners, we were very<br />
satisfied with COTTM 2012. We place a high<br />
value on COTTM because we get to meet a lot<br />
of people from the trade. COTTM continues to<br />
attract more and more new destinations as the<br />
show grows bigger every year. The High-end<br />
Luxury Showcase catered for our exact needs as<br />
one of our core tasks this year is to research and<br />
develop outbound luxury products. We<br />
benefited from a very successful COTTM 2012.<br />
Ms Chenxiao Chen, Director, CITS Head Office<br />
The pre-scheduled appointments for the<br />
High-end Luxury buyers and exhibitors were<br />
very good. I look forward to meeting more<br />
high-end luxury exhibitors next year!<br />
Mr Tony Liu, Managing Director, Dragon Blaze<br />
Journeys<br />
COTTM gets better every year. The forums and<br />
seminars really assist the communication<br />
between exhibitors and buyers and the<br />
educational sessions are very helpful. The<br />
variation of exhibitors helped me find new<br />
suppliers and I very much look forward to<br />
attending next year.<br />
Mr Vinzent Wang, Regional Product Manager,<br />
Beijing Trip TM International Ltd<br />
COTTM continues to attract more and more<br />
new destinations. The Luxury travel showcase<br />
in particular provided high-end/luxury buyers<br />
with many new contacts. I gained a lot out of<br />
COTTM 2012.<br />

WHY BEIJING?<br />
As the Capital of China, Beijing is a natural host for an<br />
exhibition like COTTM. COTTM has taken place in Beijing<br />
for the last 8 years and is an ideal location to attract the<br />
key Chinese buyers. Beijing is home to some of China’s<br />
largest outbound tour operators, including CITS (China<br />
International Travel Service), CTS (China Travel Service)<br />
and CYTS (China Youth Travel Service). Beijing Airport is<br />
capable of allowing 50 million passengers per year to travel<br />
around the world, complimenting COTTM’s primary<br />
purpose.<br />
ABOUT THE VENUE:<br />
COTTM will take place at the National Agricultural<br />
Exhibition Center (NAEC), which is conveniently located in<br />
Beijing’s Chaoyang District. The NAEC is located next to a<br />
large business community, surrounded by hotels. Transport<br />
links include the Beijing subway, which is near the front<br />
entrance of the venue. The NAEC’s great location on the<br />
Chaoyang District ring road also allows easy access by car<br />
and has ample parking.<br />
SHOW FEATURES<br />
One of the many highlights during the show was the<br />
high-calibre seminar programme, for both visitors and<br />
exhibitors. Visitors could find out more about exhibitor<br />
products and services while exhibitors learned about<br />
outbound tourism trends, future challenges, commercial<br />
opportunities and government policies.<br />
LUXURY TOURISM<br />
A panel which included Mr Guo Ming, President of Trip TM<br />
Global Theme Travel Club – the leading dedicated high-end<br />
/ luxury tour operator in China. This seminar was aimed at<br />
discussing the demand and typical features of the Chinese<br />
outbound high-end/luxury travel market and what kind of<br />
suppliers the Chinese outbound tour operators would like<br />
to meet.<br />
CHINESE SOCIAL MEDIA FORUM<br />
Social Media is increasingly important especially for the<br />
young, affluent techno-savy Chinese. The seminar looked at<br />
evolving travel trends in china as well as exploring the<br />
changing situation of Social Media in China, the country<br />
with the largest number of internet users and the fastest<br />
growing outbound tourism market in the world. It looked at<br />
policies and practices in social media use and ways to make<br />
destinations more attractive for Chinese visitors.<br />
CHINESE TOURISTS WELCOMING AWARDS<br />
The year 2012 saw the “CTW Chinese Tourists Welcoming<br />
Award” organised for the eighth time by COTRI China<br />
Outbound Tourism Research Institute at COTTM. The<br />
awards recognise the companies and countries that go the<br />
extra mile to accommodate Chinese people and offers<br />
excellent products and services that meet their specific<br />
requirements when travelling abroad.<br />
EXHIBITOR INTRODUCTION/DEBRIEF WORKSHOP<br />
These workshops were designed to educate exhibitors on<br />
how to maximise their success at COTTM and to increase<br />
their awareness of the requirements of the Chinese travel<br />
market.<br />
