Dong DMC to Attend ASEAN Tourism Forum & TRAVEX 2026 in Cebu

Let’s Schedule a Meeting in Advance

ATF & TRAVEX 2026 | Cebu, Philippines

After ten years since last hosting the ASEAN Tourism Forum, the Philippines welcomes the region once again — this time in Cebu, the economic and tourism hub of the Visayas.

Dong DMC confirms its participation in ASEAN Tourism Forum (ATF) 2026 and the official B2B platform ASEAN Travel Exchange (TRAVEX) 2026, taking place from 28–30 January 2026 in Cebu, Philippines.

This year’s participation is part of our supplier sourcing and product development strategy as we expand structured travel programs across Southeast Asia.

Why Cebu Matters for Supplier Development

As host city, Cebu offers a strong combination of tourism infrastructure, island connectivity, and operational maturity. Beyond its cultural heritage and coastal landscapes, Cebu serves as a practical base for:

• Inter-island routing (Cebu – Bohol – Boracay – Manila)
• Scalable group handling
• Growing MICE and incentive capabilities

For buyers developing new markets, Cebu provides a realistic operational testing ground, not just a destination showcase.

About TRAVEX 2026: A Buyer–Seller Working Platform

TRAVEX is the official business exchange of ATF, designed for pre-scheduled, outcome-oriented meetings between ASEAN sellers and international buyers.

From a buyer perspective, TRAVEX allows us to:

• Evaluate ground operations, logistics, and service readiness
• Discuss contracted rates, allocations, and capacity planning
• Align on product standards, escalation processes, and communication flow
• Identify partners suitable for long-term cooperation, not spot buying

What Dong DMC Is Looking For at TRAVEX 2026

During TRAVEX 2026, Dong DMC will focus on meeting suppliers and operators who are interested in developing the Vietnam outbound market in a structured and sustainable way.

We are seeking discussions with:

• DMC / Ground Handlers

Operations, logistics coordination, licensed guides, group handling

• Local Tour Operators

Day tours, multi-day routing, themed and experiential products

• Hotels & Resorts

Contracted rates, group allocations, clear booking and release terms

• Transport Providers

Coaches, vans, airport transfers with reliable fleet management

Our priority markets include Manila, Cebu, Bohol, Boracay, as well as other key destinations with scalable potential.

How We Work: Partnership-First, Not Spot Buying

Dong DMC approaches market development with a clear structure:

Build rates → co-develop products → scale volume

We prefer partners who value:

• Transparent pricing and working models
• Clear points of contact and responsibility
• Long-term cooperation over one-off transactions
