“The WRTA Expo as well as the organization itself have proven to be professionally led and managed. The show’s co-location [with NTA] provided us with an unprecedented access normally only found at global travel shows. Religious travel is a key point in our marketing activities in the United States, and being a member of WRTA and attending and exhibiting at the show are a cornerstone to this.”
