    Leverage National Travel and Tourism Week

    May 5-11, 2019 is National Travel and Tourism Week, an annual tradition for the travel community. This marks the 36th year for travel and tourism professionals across the United States to unite to celebrate the value travel holds for our economy, businesses and personal well-being. The international VRMA community can most certainly join in!

    National Travel and Tourism Week began in 1983 and has become bigger and better each year. Leverage this event using specially prepared resources from VRMA Advocacy, including templated Opinion-Editorials and Letters to the Editor. As a thought leader in VRM, your local news outlets will welcome your input.
