- CONFERENCE THEME:
getting
back to business
The September 11 terror attacks in America changed the meeting landscape
dramatically. In purely financial terms, the impact has been staggering.
Hotels, airlines, travel agents, tour operators, meeting planners,
incentive organizers and other meeting suppliers suffered enormous losses
as travel plummeted and meetings and conventions were cancelled or
postponed. We cannot let the terrorists win. We need to get back to
business. We are in this together and we need to pull together. This
conference will focus on strategies to do just that.

Important
Information About Egypt
About the Pyramids
The American Institute of Pyramidology believes that there are
indications of divine inspiration and prophetic message in the pyramids.
Many scholars think the pyramid shape was an important religious statement
for the Egyptians, perhaps symbolizing the slanting rays of the sun. Some
speculate the sloping sides were intended to help the soul of the king climb
to the sky and join the gods. It's believed to have taken 100,000 laborers
about 20 years to build the mammoth Khufu pyramid, using an estimated 2.3
million blocks.

SINGLE TRIP TRAVEL INSURANCE: Some people need the peace of
mind that comes from knowing they will get their money back if they have to
cancel, have a medical emergency, lose their belongings and others. If you are
one of them, visit insuremytrip.com.
This site searches and compares rates from different providers for insurance
policies designed for travelers going on a single trip.
For a small fee, you are protected for Trip Cancellation, Baggage, Medical,
Dental, Emergency Evacuation, 24 Hour Traveler Assistance, Baggage Delay, Travel
Delay, and Accidental Death Coverages. CONCERNED ABOUT
TRAVEL TO EGYPT? We check with the US State Department and other authorities
regularly to make sure we do not put our attendees in harm's way. We have been
assured that there is no indication that travelers to Egypt are in particular
danger and therefore has not been included in the Updated
Travel Warning Bulletin issued by the US Department of State. Travel Warnings
are issued when the US State Department recommends that Americans avoid a
certain country. Check
here.
We checked with the Egyptian Minister of Tourism and were told
that the government has the radical movement in Egypt under control. They have
seriously cracked down on members of this group and put them behind bars. Strict
security measures have been in place in tourist attractions and tour busses
since 1997 - but they have doubled security since the September 11 attack in the
USA. They have put sympathizers of militant groups under notice that the
government is watching them closely and attacks on tourists and citizens will be
punished severely.
