Thank you for joining us and Happy New Year.
Enjoy this week's fresh program with a serious look at security, safety, education and business travel for 2010.
Next week, we will be attending the Morocco Travel Market (MTM) in Marrakech, located in northwest Africa. MTM is a member of the International Trade and Travel Fairs Association (ITTFA). This association represents approximately 20 travel fairs around the world in some very exotic and interesting destinations like Belgrade, Serbia, Montenegro, Moscow, Kazakhstan and Italy. We hope to be covering many of these conferences as part of a partnership we have formed with the ITTFA.
If you would like a leisurely look at travel, please join us for our broadcast of TravelTalkRADIO this coming Sunday from 9 - 11AM Pacific Time. We are commercial radio station in many areas and online! 
Interested in the Moroccan Travel Market? This includes much of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. If so, let us know.
We will be bringing you programming from MTM later this month.
Have a great week,

Stenden
attracts meetings to their on-site hotel and meeting
facilities as part of the program they offer to students who
come from all over the world to this renowned hospitality
university tucked in a quaint Dutch village called
Leeuwarden.. At the heart of these forums and conferences
are the students who plan and coordinate the meetings as a
part of the ‘problem-based learning’ technique. The upscale
hotel and meeting facilities are under one roof and with the
university allowing visitors a chance to work directly with
the students and their professors. From a personal point of
view, it is a delightful and rewarding experience!

campuses throughout the world including ; Netherlands,
Qatar, South Africa, Thailand, Germany and Bali. http://www.stenden.com

Travel
Association (LABTA) |
From Los
Angeles, the head of the largest single city chapter of the
National Business Travel Association (NBTA) talks with us
about the full body scanners now in use at LAX and soon to
become universally omnipresent. Just how intrusive are
these? Are there legitimate moral objections to these
machines? What does Casper the Ghost have to do with all of
this? We'll also hear about LABTA's goals for 2010 and they
are ambitious indeed!
