*In case a tour operator comes to us asking for a program, we will charge 2% commission on sales if it is on an occasional basis and 1% for years if it is an ongoing account. Sales representation for the Spanish market will carry a 5% commission on sales. In case we get an FIT request we will ask a B2B price and add 7% to the customer invoice.

For Micro and Specialist memberships we have another type of membership which includes access to either the ITB Berlin or WTM London Global Discovery booth without additional fees.
