 The ttgluxury seminar: Creating and Maintaining Success In Luxury Travel took place on November 4, 2009. It was a must-attend event for anyone in luxury travel, created as a means for premium travel professionals to come together to discuss shared issues, learn best practice, meet suppliers, discover new ways of doing business and keep up with key trends in the luxury travel arena.
