The fast-growing South Korea market for New England tourism will start growing even faster when Korean Air launches its non-stop Seoul-Boston service in April 2019.

The DNE sales mission will spend a day and a half in Seoul, for a market briefing, seminar, presentations and networking.

Then on to Tokyo for 2 days of sales calls and presentations.

Cost is $2800 per person - 7 seats available - plus travel to be coordinated by DNE.

Pricey, but could be worth it, especially for urban destinations with good transit connectivity to Boston or NYC.

Discover New England is a nonprofit cooperative DMO which promotes in international markets tourism to the - er - 5 New England States (VT has opted out and looks to be pursuing new residents instead of tourists). The DNE 2019 Tourism Summit & Marketplace will be held 13-15 May at Foxwoods Resort Casino in CT.
