WARNING - FRAUDULENT HOTEL BOOKING AGENCY
We have recently been made aware of a fraudulent hotel booking company who are contacting exhibitors and claiming to be either a preferred supplier or, in some cases, working for the show/exhibition itself.
We would urge all registered delegates to be vigilant and cautious of any such communications. The Official Hotel Booking Agency/Accommodation Partner for World Routes 2014 is Events in Focus, please choose from the links below to make your hotel reservation.
