DUBAI
History of Dubai
DUBAI is one of the seven emirates that make up the United Arab
Emirates on the Arabian Peninsula.
Although the early history of Dubai is not very well
documented, archeological discoveries suggests that, as long as
four thousand years ago, small fishing communities lived along the
coast of the Arabian Gulf on the site of what we know today as
Dubai.
In 1971 when the British left the Persian Gulf, Dubai together
with Abu Dhabi and five other emirates, formed the United Arab
Emirates. The UAE dirham was adopted in 1973 as the uniform
currency, by Dubai and the other emirates.
Dubai's enormous constructions and developments in various
industries through innovative real estate projects, sports events,
shopping festivals and conferences has attracted world-wide
attention for Dubai City, establishing it as the world's leading
business hub.
Dubai has a rich cultural scene with art museums, film
festivals (Dubai film festival) and performing arts centers, in
addition to being a shopper's delight, hosting the annually held
Dubai Shopping Festival. Dubai is a city of excitement waiting to
be explored holding the potential for one of the most significant
international cities of the 21st century.

MAURITIUS
History Of Mauritius
The first Europeans to have visited Mauritius were the
Portuguese at the beginning of the sixteenth century
The Dutch who settled in the island in 1598 named it Mauritius
after Prince Maurice of Nassau. Among other things, the Dutch
introduced sugar cane and the Java deer before leaving in 1710
where they had found in the mean time a far better settling place
The Cape of Good Hope in South Africa. About five years later, in
1715, the French occupied the island, renaming it "Isle de France".
It was under the French Governor, Mah de Labourdonnais, that
Mauritius knew its first development: a harbour was built. Port
Louis, named after the ruling king Louis XV, became the capital of
Mauritius.

SINGAPORE
History of Singapore
The world's busiest port, the modern nation of the Republic of
Singapore, was founded as a British trading post on the Strait of
Malacca in 1819.
Tourism had been an important sector of Singapore's economy for
more than a decade, averaging 16 percent of total foreign exchange
earnings and 6 percent of GDP between 1980 and 1985. Tourist
arrivals had dropped sharply in 1983, however, the first decline in
over twenty years. The decrease resulted both from the regional and
world economic downturn at that time and from travel restrictions
instituted by neighboring countries to preserve their own foreign
exchange. Observers noted also that Singapore was losing its
"oriental mystique and charm." In its effort to build a modern
city, it had torn down old buildings and curtailed traditional
street activities, aspects considered by tourists to be part of
Singapore's attraction Although increasing the absolute number of
visitor arrivals was the main target, a further aim was to attract
the high-spending, business visitors attending conventions and
trade exhibitions, which Singapore hosted in large numbers.

Malaysia
History Of Malaysia
Malaysia's history starts generally around the establishment of
the Malacca sultanate. During the 13th century, it was renowned as
a major port for traders from both east and west.
The history of Malaysia is a relatively recent offshoot of the
history of the wider Malay-Indonesian world. It is so because
anthropologists and historians could see very little aspects
culturally and linguistically, to distinguish todays Malaysian
territories from the lands of the Malay Archipelago. According to
their research, todays division of the Malay world into six
different states-- Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Singapore,
Brunei and East Timor is largely the result of external influences,
like the Hindu India, the Islamic Middle East and Christian Europe
(west), China and Japan (north-east). Besides, the most direct
shipping route passing through the Strait of Malacca, Malaysia has
naturally been a melting pot of trade routes and cultures. Thus, it
has been found out that the geographical position of Malaysia has
literally made it difficult for the Malay people to resist foreign
influence and domination.

Foundation of the International Civil Aviation Organization
(ICAO)
The consequence of the studies initiated by the US and
subsequent consultations between the Major Allies was that the US
government extended an invitation to 55 States or authorities to
attend, in November 1944, an International Civil Aviation
Conference in Chicago. Fifty-four States attended this Conference
end of which a Convention on International Civil Aviation was
signed by 52 States set up the permanent International Civil
Aviation Organization (ICAO) as a means to secure international
co-operation an highest possible degree of uniformity in
regulations and standards, procedures and organisation regarding
civil aviation matters. At the same time the International Services
Transit Agreement and the International Air Transport Agreement
were signed.
The most important work accomplished by the Chicago Conference
was in the technical field because the Conference laid the
foundation for a set of rules and regulations regarding air
navigation as a whole which brought safety in flying a great step
forward and paved the way for the application of a common air
navigation system throughout the world.
ICAO founded in1947.
ICAO composed of 185 members.
ICAO provides technical assistance to countries.
ICAO provides technical publications and social studies.
Activities
Ensure the safe and orderly growth to international civil
aviation throughout the world.
Encourage the arts of the aircraft design and operation for the
peaceful purposes.
Encourage the development of the railways, airports and
navigation facilities for ICAO.
Meets the needs of the people of the world for safe regular
efficient, economical air transport.
Prevent economic waste caused by unreasonable competition.
Ensure that the rights of the contracting country has a fair
opportunity to operate international airlines
Avoid discrimination between contracting countries
Promote safety of flight in international air navigation
Promote generally the development of all aspects of
International civil aeronautics
Chicago convention
The Convention on International Civil Aviation , also known as
the Chicago Convention , established the International Civil
Aviation Organization (ICAO), a specialized agency of the United
Nations charged with coordinating and regulating international air
travel. The Convention establishes rules of airspace, aircraft
registration and safety, and details the rights of the signatories
in relation to air travel. The Convention also exempts air fuels
from tax.
The document was signed on December7, 1944 in Chicago,
Illinois, by 52 signatory states. It received the requisite 26th
ratification on March 5, 1947 and went into effect on April 4,1947,
the same date that ICAO came into being. In October of the same
year, ICAO became a specialized agency of the United Nations
Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC). The Convention has since been
revised eight times (in 1959, 1963, 1969, 1975, 1980, 1997, 2000
and 2006). Links to all versions of the document can be found in
the external links section.
The original signed document resides in the National Archives
of United States.
Annexes
The Convention is supported by eighteen annexes containing
standards and recommended practices (SARPs). The annexes are
amended regularly by ICAO and are as follows:
Annex 1 - Personnel Licensing

Warsaw Convention.
The Warsaw Convention is an international convention which
regulates liability for international carriage of persons, luggage
or goods performed by aircraft for reward.
Originally signed in 1929 in Warsaw (hence the name), it was
amended in 1955 at The Hague and in 1975 in Montreal. United States
courts have held that, at least for some purposes, the Warsaw
Convention is a different instrument from the Warsaw Convention as
Amended by the Hague Protocol.
In particular, the Warsaw Convention:
mandates carriers to issue passenger tickets;
requires carriers to issue baggage checks for checked
luggage;
creates a limitation period of 2 years within which a claim
must be brought (Article 29); and
limits a carrier's liability to at most:
250,000 Francs or 16,600 Special Drawing Rights (SDR) for
personal injury;
17 SDR per Kilogram for checked luggage and cargo,
5,000 Francs or 332 SDR for the hand luggage of a
traveler.
The sums limiting liability were originally given in Francs
(defined in terms of a particular quantity of gold by article 22
paragraph 5 of the convention). These sums were amended by the
Montreal Additional Protocol No. 2 to substitute an expression
given in terms of SDR's. These sums are valid in the absence of a
differing agreement (on a higher sum) with the carrier. Agreements
on lower sums are null and void.
On April 1,2007, the exchange rate was 1.00 SDR = 1.135 EUR or
1.00 SDR = 1.51 USD.
A court may also award a claiming party's costs, unless the
carrier made an offer within 6 months of the loss (or at least 6
months before the beginning of any legal proceedings) which the
claiming party has failed to beat.
The Montreal Convention, signed in 1999, will replace the
Warsaw Convention system, once Montreal has been ratified by all
states. Until then, however, there will be a patchwork of rules
governing international carriage by air, as different states will
be parties to different agreements (or no agreement at all).
How travel organizations helps the Industry and tourists?
International Air Transport Association (IATA).
Universal Federation of Travel Agents Association (UFTAA).
International Air Transport Association(IATA).
Air transport is one of the most dynamic industries in the
world. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) is its
global trade organization.
Over 60 years, IATA has developed the commercial standards that
built a global industry. Today, IATAs mission is to represent, lead
and serve the airline industry . Its members comprise some 230
airlines -the worlds leading passenger and cargo airlines among
them - representing 93 percent of scheduled international air
traffic.
IATA seeks to improve understanding of the industry among
decision makers and increase awareness of the benefits that
aviation brings to national and global economies. It fights for the
interests of airlines across the globe, challenging unreasonable
rules and charges, holding regulators and governments to account,
and striving for sensible regulation.
IATAs aim is to help airlines help themselves by simplifying
processes and increasing passenger convenience while reducing costs
and improving efficiency. The groundbreaking Simplifying the
Business initiative is crucial in this area. Moreover, safety is
IATAs number one priority, and IATAs goal is to continually improve
safety standards, notably through IATAs Operational Safety Audit
(IOSA). Anothermainconcern is to minimise the impact of air
transport on environment.
IATA ensures that people and goods can move around the global
airline network as easily as if they were on a single airline in a
single country. In addition, it provides essential professional
support to all industry stakeholders with a wide range of products
and expert services, such as publications, training and consulting.
IATAs financial systems also help carriers and the travel industry
maximise revenues.
For consumers , IATA simplifies the travel and shipping
processes, while keeping costs down. Passengers can make one
telephone call to reserve a ticket, pay in one currency and then
use the ticket on several airlines in several countries.
IATA allows airlines to operate safely, securely, efficiently
and economically under clearly defined rules.
IATA serves as an intermediary between airlines and passenger
as well as cargo agents via neutrally applied agency service
standards and centralised financial systems.
A large network of industry suppliers and service providers
gathered by IATA provides solid expertise to airlines in a variety
of industry solutions.
For governments , IATA seeks to ensure they are well informed
about the complexities of the aviation industry to ensurebetter,
long-term decisions
IATA's goal is to help its Members provide a seamless travel
experience to their customers. As today's business is driven by
consumer expectations, our challenge is to meet those expectations
in a financially sustainable business environment.
E-ticketing (ET) is one of the Simplifying The
Businessinitiativeswith the mostsignificant opportunities to reduce
costs and improve passenger convenience. It reduces ticket
processing charges, eliminates the need for paper and allows
greater flexibility to the passenger and the travel agent to make
changes to the itinerary.
The Simplifying Passenger Travel (SPT) Program is an initiative
that focuses on the passenger and facilitating their journey while
emphasizing the security benefits of processing 'known' passengers
automatically, thereby freeing-up resources to concentrate on
'unknown' passengers.
The aim is to improve the passenger travel experience by
replacing repetitive checks of passengers and their documents with
a new streamlined system. The new system will collect the
information once and then share it electronically with subsequent
service providers to clear the passenger through their entire
journey.
The SPT Program has built a unique multi-sectoral membership
consisting of airlines, airports, control authorities and
technology suppliers, all working towards the common goal of
bringing the vison of "simplified and secure passenger processing"
to reality.
This will provide:
hassle free travel for passengers
easier pre-travel procedures for travel agents
streamlined processing for airlines
better use of resources by airports
efficient and secure transportation for governments
IATA was instrumental in developing the first version of the
passenger ticket
During the 1920s, each airline used a different form of the
passenger ticket with no standard conditions of carriage
The industry recognised need for standardisation of traffic
documents, regulations and procedures
It became the main focus of the IATA Traffic Committee which
developed the standard ticket for multiple trips (1930)
Warsaw Convention (signed in 1929 implemented in 1933)
established the conditions of international air transportation
documents and carrier liability
IATA developed a neutral paper ticket in 1972 to support the
global distribution system that is prevalent today more than 60,000
travel agents around the world
This is what is being eliminated by the industry
In 1983 IATA established the Automated Ticket and Boarding Pass
(ATB)
It allowed information to be printed on the face of the ticket
and encoded on a magnetic stripe on the back which could be easily
read by computer
Montreal Convention of 1999 replaced the Warsaw Convention
introducing the concept of unlimited liability
Around the same time document requirements for passenger,
baggage and cargo
were simplified to take advantage of new information
technologies
became basic foundation for the development and global
implementation of the electronic ticket
Financial Services:
Efficient and cost-effective management of revenues and cash is
essential for the financial health of your organization.
With IATA, you benefit from the unique strengths of our
financial settlement systems established for the industry.
Universal Federation of Travel Agents Association (UFTAA).
The United Federation of Travel Agents Associations (UFTAA)
emanates from the Universal Federation of Travel Agents
Associations created in Rome, Italy, on November 22nd, 1966. UFTAA
was originally founded as a result of a merger of two large world
organizations, FIAV and UOTAA, recognizing the need to unify travel
agencies and tour-operators into one international federation.
In 1989, coming from Brussels, UFTAA set up its General
Secretariat in the Principality of Monaco.
UFTAA started its operation as a Confederation on January 1st,
2003. It is a non-profit Confederation of international scope,
representing Regional Federations comprising some80 national
associations.
UFTAA is a world body representing the travel agency and
tourism industry. UFTAA effectively represents Travel Agents and
Tour Operators views on both Inbound and Outbound travel by
continuous dialogue and consultation with other international
organisations such as the International Air Transport Association
(IATA), the International Hotel and Restaurant Association
(IH&RA) the International Union of Railways (IUR), the
International Road Union (IRU), and the International Chamber of
Commerce (ICC) to mention only a few. UFTAA has consultative status
with the UN/NGO/ECOSOC, and works closely with other world bodies
such as UNESCO, WHO etc for a sustainable and responsible tourism.
UFTAA is an affiliate member of the World Tourism Organisation
(WTO) and its Business Council (WTOBC).).
UFTAAs mission is to be an international forum where matters
affecting the world travel industry are addressed, representing and
defending the interests of incoming and outgoing tour operators,
travel and tourism agencies before the governmental bodies,
suppliers and other entities of international scope. It also aims
at strengthening its members image and enhance the world travel and
tourism industry and a sustainable tourism. - To comply with its
mission, the Confederation develops the following functions : - To
unite and consolidate the Federations of Travel Agents National
Associations and to globally enhance the interests of their members
; - To represent the travel agents activities before various
world-wide bodies, governmental authorities and suppliers ; -
To work towards the adoption of measures that will ease travel
for the consumer and to offer services to its member federations ;
- To be an investigation and information centre supporting the
member Federations work and to offer information for technological
development ; - To offer, as a voluntary mechanism, an arbitration
service which assists in solving conflicts resulting from
commercial relations for which amicable settlement cannot be
reached ; - To organise a world congress of travel agents and other
meetings necessary to the exchange and transmission of
knowledge.

Acropolis of Athens
The stunning rock defines the city and is the main attraction
when it comes to things to do in Greece.
The Acropolis in Athens is the most famous acropolis in Greece,
and the entire world, for that matter.
Things to consider at the Acropolis are the fact that you have
to check any bag you are carrying before entering, and during the
summer it can get pretty warm on the Acropolis during the peak
daytime hours.
Red Beach
The Red Beach found on the Greek island of Santorini is a
mesmerizing stretch of red sand that is set against a truly
stunning backdrop of scaling red cliffs.
The crystal-clear blue waters of the Aegean Sea uniquely
contrast the stunning red-colored sands, all set against a prolific
cliff background.
Temple of Zeus
The Temple of Zeus in Athens is located near the center of the
city, just about a quarter of a mile to the southeast of the
Acropolis, and within a quarter mile south of Syntagma Square and
the Parliament Building.
An interesting note in the history of the temple of Zeus is
that Hadrian, upon dedicating the temple to Zeus, erected two large
statues in the center of the building. Both were large and one
depicted Zeus, the other one Hadrian himself.
Plaka Market
The Plaka in Athens, is the citys oldest neighborhood, and most
of it has been relegated to foot traffic.
Although every day shopping in Plaka is a good day, Sundays are
when the masses arrive.
Vlihada Beach
On the Island of Santorini, the stunning vistas and relaxing
beaches are mostly what attract visitors to this highly popular
vacation destination
Vlihada is a small, coastal village that can be found on the
southern side of the island
Spain
The history of Spanish people is a mixture of the Roman,
Moslem, Greek, Phoenician, and North African people that have, at
one time or another throughout history, called the Iberian
Peninsula home. With access to both the Mediterranean Sea and the
Atlantic Ocean, present-day Spain (which shares the Iberian
Peninsula with Portugal) was a vital trading link and entry point
into both northern Africa and Southern Europe. The history of Spain
has been influenced tremendously by this cross current of
ethnicities and religions

Italy
For thousands of years, Italy has been at the forefront of
modern culture. The birthplace of the Roman Empire and fountainhead
of the Renaissance, Italy has retained a prominent spot atop the
global radar since long before the time of Caesar.
Giuseppe Garibaldi formed the current kingdom of Italy in 1861,
but the roots of Italian history date back to a largely
undocumented tribe called the Etruscans.
Attractions
Leaning Tower of Pisa
Vatican museum
Italian Opera
Piazza Navona
Mount Etna Volcano
Leaning Tower of Pisa
The Tower of Pisa is the bell tower of the Cathedral. Its
construction began in the august of 1173 and continued (with two
long interruptions) for about two hundred years, in full fidelity
to the original project, whose architect is still uncertain.
Both because of its inclination, and its beauty, from 1173 up
to the present the Tower has been the object of very special
attention.
Vatican museum
Located on the north side of Vatican City, a spiral ramp leads
visitors inside the Vatican museum, a haphazard array of corridors
and papal spaces.
Even though the Renaissance paintings garner much of the praise
heaped on the museum, the Vatican library holds an impressive and
enchanting collection of crumbling documents, medieval treaties and
antique books.
Italian Opera
The history of Italian opera is forever interwoven with the
aristocratic leaders of the time - the musical form was derived
from courtly entertainment in palaces all over the world and
originally conceived as a recreational activity performed for only
the very wealth
Many Italian opera houses built during this time still exist
today, and most of them still hold performances on a regular
basis.
Piazza Navona
Piazza Navona Rome is one of the finest squares found in all of
the city, and anywhere else, for that matter.
Three magnificent fountains occupy the Navona Square, built
upon the ruins of the first century Stadium of Domition.
This explains its long, oval shape and it is a place where
ancient Romans used to watch a variety of games and races.
Mount Etna Volcano
Standing at almost 11,000 feet, Mount Etna dominates the
Sicilian skyline, a vague threat situated near the island's eastern
coast.
This is the most active volcano in the world.
The ancient Greeks believed it to be the home of Vulcan, the
god of fire - to them, Mount Etna erupting merely meant Vulcan was
forging weapons for Mars, the god of war
France
F rance is an independent nation in Western Europe and the
center of a large overseas administration. It is the third-largest
European nation (after Russia and Ukraine).
S ince the 17th century, France has played a major role in

Flea Market
Versailles and its Chateau
Grand Theatre - Opera National de Bordeaux
Eiffel Tower
The Eiffel Tower is the most recognizable landmark in Paris and
is known worldwide as a symbol of France.

Thalys when coming from Brussels) stops and its own RER (commuter
train) station, so when visiting Paris you can hop on the RER and
stop right in the park.
Flea Market
In French "aux Marche Puces de St Ouen" or if we want the real
French spelling "aux March Puces de St Ouen". Probably the greatest
antique market in the world.
Versailles and its Chateau
Versailles used to be an unimportant village a few miles west
of France until May 6, 1682 when King Louis XIV moved his court to
the Palace of Versailles there. Versailles is now a very bourgeois
suburb of Paris.

departure
Schengen Visa
Yellow fever certificate if arriving from infected areas.
Exempt infants under 6 months.
Spain
A valid Passport
Schengen Visa
No compulsory vaccinations

of the visa
Schengen Visa
No compulsory vaccinations and immunizations needed
France
A valid passport up to 3 months from the expiry of the
visa
Schengen Visa
No compulsory vaccination and immunization needed
Reason why less documents are needed for these countries:
Countries that we have selected Greece,Spain,Italy and France
needs only few documents to travel because we are carrying a common
visa that is Schengen Visa instead of carrying individual Visas for
each country.
A Schengen visa allows the holder to travel freely within the
Schengen countries for a maximum stay of up to 90 days in a 6 month
period.
Schengen Visa
The Schengen Visa has made traveling between its 15 European
member countries much easier and less bureaucratic. Traveling on a
Schengen Visa means that the visa holder can travel to any (or all)
member countries using one single visa, thus avoiding the hassle
and expense of obtaining individual visas for each country. This is
particularly beneficial for persons who wish to visit several
European countries on the same trip. The Schengen visa is a visitor
visa. It is issued to citizens of countries who are required to
obtain a visa before entering Europe. The purpose of the visit must
be leisure, tourism, or business. Upon the issuance of the visa,
the visa holder is allowed to enter all member countries and travel
freely throughout the Schengen area.
