Bintan Resorts, in collaboration with Travstarz Global Group, recently concluded a series of trade workshops across India’s emerging outbound markets such as Jaipur, Lucknow and Indore recently.
The workshops conducted by Shakambri Soni from VFS Global – Tourism Services, Bintan Resorts’ strategic partner in India, showcased the destination’s diverse offerings for various travel cohorts. The sessions were facilitated by Travstarz Global Group, a multi-award-winning outbound DMC, wholesaler and consolidator offering exclusive B2B services in the travel and tourism industry.
Structured as evening events, each session brought together over 35 high-performing travel agents, hand-picked for their influence in cities where relationship-based travel planning still plays a pivotal role.
Abdul Wahab, Chief Operating Officer, Bintan Resorts, said, “India’s evolving travel hubs are playing an increasingly influential role in outbound tourism and it was essential for us to engage directly with the travel trade in these cities. The workshops provided an opportunity to have meaningful face-to-face conversations with agents, better understand their expectations and present Bintan as a destination that seamlessly fits into broader Southeast Asia itineraries – offering both accessibility and enriching travel experiences.”
Sucheta Nagpal, Director & CEO, Travstarz Global Group, also added, “Introducing Bintan to our agent network through focused, on-ground interactions helped build confidence and interest. The strong turnout and engagement in all three cities speak volumes about the potential of these markets.”
