At IPW, exhibitors promote and sell U. S. travel products and services (destinations, accommodations, attractions, retail shopping, restaurants, travel packagers, transportation companies and more) to pre-qualified international and domestic buyers (tour operators, wholesalers, MICE buyers and online travel agencies) and travel press.
