A second chance to change more people’s lives for the better!

A second chance to change more people’s lives for the better!

Company, Dubai, Platform, Progress, Tourism, Trat, Tratok, UAE, United Arab Emirates
As promised in the last update, we are launching a second round of Tratok’s holiday per year for life for two more lucky winners and their partners. We received a lot of excellent feedback from the community about new methods to implement with regards to earning additional tickets. Rest assured that the suggestion that holders of large amounts of tokens be eligible for further entries, will NOT be implemented. Tratok is here for the world and we wish to reward participation from all members, not just the rich.  Therefore, the terms are effectively the same as the previous round (with the sole addition that those who have already won last month’s draw will not be eligible to win a second time). You may find the updated terms and conditions by…

We start 2021 in a strong position but exponential growth potential lies ahead

We start 2021 in a strong position but exponential growth potential lies ahead

Company, Dubai, Platform, Progress, Tourism, Trat, Tratok, UAE, United Arab Emirates, Website
As we come to the end of the first month of 2021, we look forward to a year with a far more constructive underlying foundation for the travel and tourism sector than 2020. On one hand, the emergence of a vaccine has boosted confidence in the sector and this renewed confidence will rise with more widespread acceptance and adoption of said vaccine. At the same time, the urge to travel will likely be stronger in individuals who have been unable to do so for almost a year now. Finally, and perhaps most importantly for Tratok, the economic devastation caused by the pandemic has forced service providers to change the way they do business and embrace new methods, while at the same time encouraging consumers to think about savings, benefits and…

As we head towards 2021, Tratok hosts an iconic launch party for a world changing product

As we head towards 2021, Tratok hosts an iconic launch party for a world changing product

Company, Dubai, Platform, Progress, Tourism, Trat, Tratok, Website
If there is a single appropriate word to describe Tratok’s second generation ecosystem launch event, it would have to be “Iconic”. A groundbreaking event, featured by the Dubai Media Office, the Polo Challenge Cup was an event of beauty and great significance. With two hundred visitors in attendance, it showed the strong support and good will behind Tratok. With a turnout including Ministers, Excellencies and leaders from the hospitality and travel industry, the message was very clear. The industry believes in Tratok and is throwing their support behind the platform. At the same time, there is another equally important message here. The fact that such a large group of people can get together, be safe and have fun delivers an even more important sign. It shows light at the end…

What form will summer holidays take in 2020?

What form will summer holidays take in 2020?

Company, Dubai, Progress, Tourism, Tratok, Website
As summer approaches, everyone is keen to see what form these holidays, the longest for the year in many countries, will take. Uncertainty about the re-opening of borders, the availability of international flights, has triggered large scale campaigns, both at country government levels, as well as at hotel levels, for staycations – visiting and discovering one’s own country. For example, the French government, a country which traditionally relies on heavily on large international tourist numbers, has mobilized the government media to promote a different region or village of France after the daily 13:00 news, one of the peak television viewership. Sensitizing the population to the diversity and the beauty of their own country, the initiative, beyond offering a holiday solution, aims at driving business to regions to be able to…

A summary of STR’s European Hotel Analysis

A summary of STR’s European Hotel Analysis

Company, Dubai, Progress, Tourism, Tratok, Website
As a result of the corona pandemic, 100’s of thousands of hotel properties find themselves in financial distress. But as hotels properties are hard to repurpose, they have no choice but to re-open and redefine the dialogue between the hotel owner and operator to find a way forward together. Hotel owners are the hardest hit in this crisis and need to assess the possibilities of restructuring the debt of their properties.  Key to this will be benchmarking:    How is the hotel performing compared to your comp set? What are the prospects of recovery? What is the quality of the Team running the property? Do we believe in the Team or do we need to replace them? We believe that demand will return in June, initially domestic travel but with further…
