Κατασκευή Ιστοσελίδων

Έχετε ακούσει από επιχειρήσεις και ελεύθερους επαγγελματίες να λένε “κάποιοι τους τάξανε λαγούς με πετραχήλια” και το website τους κόστισε ένα κάρο, δεν το βλέπει ούτε οι μάνα τους και το χειρότερο ότι δεν ξέρουν πώς να κάνουν μια αλλαγή ή να προσθέσουν κάτι (σελίδα, φωτογραφεία, video, κλπ.), ακόμα και αν τους είπαν που να πάνε να το κάνουν.

ITB Berlin 2010 countdown has begun

The countdown has begun for the exhibition, ITB Berlin where the whole world meets. The exhibition organizers call it, “Where Global Business Happens”. Its true!

To be more precise its not only an exhibition. Its a combination of trade exhibition, public exhibition and the biggest professional convention worldwide, which attracts tens of thousands of visitor, exhibitors and media representatives every year.

Last year, ITB Berlin 2009 was conducted occupying 160.000 sq. m. with 11.098 exhibitors of which 8.702 were foreign exhibitors. The statistic which is really outstanding is the number of visitors – 178.971!

All of this, the year that the world economic crisis was at its best. I bet that this years ITB Berlin 2010 will top last years numbers.

This year, ITB Berlin 2010 will begin on March 10th and will go all they way to March 14th 2010 at the fairgrounds of Messe Berlin. The exhibition doors will open at 10 am and close at 6 pm every day. The first three days, March 10 – 12 are only for trade visitors and the last two days are open to both trade visitors and the general public.

As in any serious exhibition there is an entrance fee or one may call it a ticket. The Trade Visitor Pass and the Exhibitor Pass have a cost of 46 Euro and can be purchased ahead of time from representatives found in each country or online at the ITB Berlin online ticket shop.

Now if you want to get your ticket on location you can do it only from ICC and the Entrance South. They will be open for sale on March 8 from 12am to 5.30pm, March 9 from 10am to 7pm, March 10 – 12 from 9am to 5.30pm. For the days 13 and 14 of March, tickets will be available from 9am to 5.30pm.

Once you have your ticket/pass you can use all the entrances which are:

  • Main Entrance South / Hall 1/2 (Jafféstrasse)
  • Hall 7.2a (opposite the Deutschlandhalle)
  • Hall 9 (Messedamm)
  • Hall 14.1 (opposite the ICC Berlin)
  • Hall 19 (Hammarskjöldplatz)
  • Hall 25
  • ICC Berlin (entrance only for exhibitors and trade visitors)

Travelling will be at ITB Berlin 2010 with its special editions of “Hellenic Travelling” and “Travelling News ITB Berlin Special Edition”, (last year’s issue of the special edition). Both of our publications will be available from the stand of the GNTO. As for our newspaper, Travelling News will also be available from the ITB Berlin International Trade Press Stand, following an agreement with ITB Berlin as we did last year and the past several years.

ITB Berlin International Trade Press Stand

The ITB Berlin International Trade Press Stand guarantees “Travelling News” free distribution at the world’s leading travel trade show and unbelievable awareness and visibility of “Travelling News” and the advertisers of that issue.

Since last year we pioneered using online video to report what was happening during the exhibition. You can take a glimpse by clicking on the link ITB Berlin 2009.

You can call us predictable, but at this years ITB Berlin 2010 we will do the same, with lots of improvements.

So, stay tuned.

How to use the Athens Subway

The Athens Subway has been a long-desired dream come true. Finally, Athens has the subway that we are all proud of. It is the quickest and most trustworthy public transportation mean and it can compete with any other European subway. It was completed in 2004, right before the commencement of the Athens Olympic games and connects the gateways El. Venizelos Athens international airport, Piraeus port and the city center.

The Athens Subway is modern, clean and above all it hosts some very important archeological findings. Riding the subway is like visiting a museum, since all the archeological artifacts are exhibited in showcases at the stations where they were found during the extraction.
