World Travel Awards (WTA), announced plans to host its Middle East ceremony at Jebel Ali Golf Resort & Spa in Dubai on 30th April 2012. WTA’s Middle East ceremony will be held in Dubai for the fifth year in succession.

Graham E Cooke, President & Founder, said: “I am delighted that we will be returning to Dubai for what promises to be the most exciting and competitive Middle East Ceremony yet. The emirate is a hotbed of fresh ideas being put into practice, as exemplified by our host, Jebel Ali Golf Resort & Spa.”
“The resort has remained the market leader for families throughout its illustrious 30-year history by continually reinventing itself and staying ahead of the curve,” Cooke adds.

David Thomson, Regional General Manager, Jebel Ali Internationals Hotels, stated: “World Travel Awards is the highest global recognition in the travel industry and we’re thrilled that the winners will celebrate at Jebel Ali Golf Resort & Spa. After our success earlier in the year, winning ‘World’s Leading Family Resort’, we’re keen to show our Middle East colleagues the changes we’ve made at the resort that justify this prestigious award. At Jebel Ali Golf Resort & Spa we pride ourselves on being a family resort and are constantly reinventing the offering in order to push the boundaries of travel excellence.”

WTA’s Middle East Ceremony 2012 will attract more than 400 of the decision-makers in the region’s travel and tourism sector, as well as a host of international media. The evening coincides with Arabian Hotel Investment Conference (28-30 April) and Arabian Travel Market (30 April – 3 May), which are both taking place in Dubai.
