Qatar Airways to unveil new-look Exhibition Stand at ITB 2006

Qatar Airways is exhibiting at the world’s biggest travel fair in Berlin this week with its largest-ever presence at the international trade show.

ITB Berlin attracts the crème de la crème of the global travel industry, from airlines, hotels, car rental companies and tourist boards to travel agents, tour operators and media from around the world.

Qatar Airways will have a two-tier steel and glass stand structure with an exhibition area measuring 200sqm – twice the size of last year – at the five-day show, which runs from today, March 8, until Sunday. The design concept reflects the theme of New Doha International Airport which is due to open in 2009.

The ceiling of the exhibition stand has a dramatic wavy structure, mirroring the design of the new airport that takes it inspiration from the sea as the facility is being built on reclaimed land from the Persian Gulf.

There will also be angled glass walls to reflect large volumes of space. The upper floor features a bar and a VIP meeting area with plenty of hospitality space.

Qatar Airways Chief Executive Officer Akbar Al Baker is heading a delegation of officials from the airline’s corporate headquarters in Doha to the ITB.
