    Tourism Ireland’s new campaign set to ‘win hearts’ around the world!

    Specially timed to coincide with this week’s St Patrick’s Day celebrations, the new adverts will be seen in some of Tourism Ireland’s key markets, including Great Britain, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, Switzerland and the Nordic countries. The campaign will continue to be rolled out in other markets over the coming weeks.The ‘Fill your heart with Ireland’ campaign is all about celebrating the different ways in which the island of Ireland fills the hearts of its visitors and of locals, and inviting potential holidaymakers to come and experience those for themselves. The advocates and personalities starring in the adverts share the things that fill their heart with Ireland, dialling up what differentiates Ireland from other destinations. They will shine a light on Ireland’s characters, character and culture, through engaging personal anecdotes told by those who love it best – its stars, local characters and visitors.
    The first adverts of the new campaign feature actors Sharon Horgan, from Bad Sisters, and Saoirse-Monica Jackson and Jamie-Lee O’Donnell, from Derry Girls. On St Patrick’s Day, Tourism Ireland’s new ‘Fill your heart with Ireland’ campaign will be rolled out in Great Britain with a special TV ‘mega spot’. At 21:00, a bespoke 60-second advert will air on more than 100 channels across Great Britain, including ITV, Channel 4, Dave and Channel 5 – reaching more than 7.7 million people. Click here to view the advert.

    Niall Gibbons, Chief Executive of Tourism Ireland, said: “As people everywhere around the world celebrate St Patrick’s Day, we are delighted to roll out our new ‘Fill your heart with Ireland’ campaign this week. It will highlight our rich and authentic experiences, breath-taking landscapes and, in particular, our warm welcome – encouraging people to put the island of Ireland on their holiday ‘wish-list’ for 2023.
    ADVERTISEMENT“Our aim is to deliver ‘stand-out’ for Ireland in the hugely competitive international marketplace. Our ‘Fill your heart with Ireland’ campaign will position the island of Ireland as a place that fills the heart and restores the spirit. Our people and welcome are key differentiators for Ireland from our competitor destinations; and this campaign puts them front and centre.”

    The ‘Fill your heart with Ireland’ adverts will run on multiple channels including TV, cinema, social media, online and outdoor. They will also be shared on Tourism Ireland’s social media platforms, including YouTube, Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and TikTok.

    St Patrick’s Day traditionally marks the real start of the tourism season and, as the rebuilding of overseas tourism to the island of Ireland continues this year, it offers a unique opportunity to launch the new ‘Fill your heart with Ireland’ global campaign, as Tourism Ireland capitalises on Ireland’s heightened profile around the world during this St Patrick’s Day period.

    The campaign will deliver over 100 million impressions (opportunities to see) in the first half of 2023. An additional 50 million impressions will be delivered in the second half of this year.

Visitors exploring the Studio Tour will be able to imagine how Hogwarts students would have felt and enjoy the same experiences as they journeyed to Hogwarts.
    The Platform 9 ¾ set was created by the original Harry Potter filmmakers using authentic techniques. It’s home to the Hogwarts Express which is an original British steam locomotive that was built in 1929 called The Dumbleton Hall. Operated by the Great Western Railway, it continued to run for over 35 years until it was retired. The locomotive was refurbished in England, then shipped to Japan to take up its position at the Studio Tour.ADVERTISEMENTTorben Jensen, VP and GM, Warner Bros.

Depicting the scene where Newt Scamander leads an intrepid team of wizards, witches, and one brave Muggle baker on a dangerous mission, the mannequins display the costumes of Newt Scamander, Jacob Kowalski, Theseus Scamander, Bunty Broadacre, Yusuf Kama and Eulalia “Lally” Hicks.
    The Studio Tour will also be home to the largest Harry Potter shop in the world, featuring 14 themed sections that are decorated with over 7,000 bespoke and specially sourced props.

    National Veterans Memorial and Museum to Host National Vietnam War Veterans Day Ceremony on March 29

    In observance of National Vietnam War Veterans Day, the National Veterans Memorial and Museum (NVMM) invites the public to join in honoring and welcoming home our Vietnam Veterans with a special in-person and live-stream ceremony on March 29 at 10 a.m in the Great Hall. This year marks the 50th anniversary of the return home of U.S. combat troops from Vietnam and the repatriation of U.S. prisoners of war (POWs).Museum admission is free to all guests on March 29, thanks to the support of NVMM sponsors. Free Welcome Home Ceremony tickets are available on the NVMM website. The event will be live-streamed on NVMM’s Facebook and YouTube channels.
    “The Vietnam War was the first war from which many Americans did not welcome our Veterans back home as heroes, so we want to take this day as a time to recognize these Veterans and say ‘thank you,’” said Lt. General Michael Ferriter, U.S. Army (Retired), president and CEO of the National Veterans Memorial and Museum. “Vietnam Veterans served when they were called upon by our country, and they and their families deserve our honor and gratitude for their service and sacrifice.”
    The Welcome Home Ceremony will feature a keynote speech from Captain Charles “Charlie” J. Plumb, U.S. Navy (Retired). He will share his story as a “Top Gun” jet fighter pilot who completed 75 combat missions before being shot down by a surface-to-air missile. Plumb ejected from his aircraft, parachuting into enemy territory where he endured six years as a POW. He now uses his journey of courage and resilience to help others face their challenges during speaking events and through his book, Who Packs Your Parachute: A True Story about Charles Plumb. Books will be available for purchase at the event, and Plumb will meet with guests after the ceremony.
    National Vietnam War Veterans Day was established as a national observance in 2017, the 50th anniversary of the start of the Vietnam War, to recognize the 9 million Americans who served during the Vietnam War. March 29, 1973, was the day U.S. Military Assistance Command, Vietnam, was disestablished and the last U.S. combat troops departed Vietnam.

    ATM has launched an ‘Exhibitor Environmental Checklist’ and ‘Most Sustainable Stand’ award

    The organisers behind Arabian Travel Market (ATM) 2023 have implemented an ‘Exhibitor Environmental Checklist’ and introduced a brand-new ‘Most Sustainable Stand’ award as part of their commitment to ensuring the upcoming show is the most climate-conscious in its history. The 30th edition of ATM will take place at Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) from 1-4 May.Developed by show organiser Reed Exhibitions (RX) in line with ATM 2023’s theme of ‘Working Towards Net Zero’, the new checklist has been created with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in mind. It features practical advice for participants on how to manage waste, minimise their energy consumption and reduce CO2 emissions, as well as guidance on how to create greener promotional materials and exhibition stands.
    By introducing a ‘Most Sustainable Stand’ category to the ATM 2023 Best Stand Awards, RX aims to highlight the importance of ‘thinking green’ when it comes to large-scale conferences and exhibitions. Entries will be judged based on an extensive range of sustainable criteria, including supplier choice, material usage, operational efficiency, and even what happens to the stand once the show has concluded.
    Danielle Curtis, Exhibition Director ME, Arabian Travel Market, said: “We’ve really had to think outside the box this year when it comes to supporting and encouraging sustainability. From an internal perspective, our team has implemented a range of purposeful innovations and changes ahead of ATM 2023, such as the removal of printed show guides, QR codes for scanning purposes and digital leads capturing to remove the need for exhibitor to hand out brochures.
    “We are confident that by engaging stakeholders with tools and initiatives such as our Exhibitor Environmental Checklist and Most Sustainable Stand category, ATM 2023 will not only set a new benchmark for sustainability within the Middle East’s exhibitions space but also help drive climate-conscious decision-making across the region’s travel, tourism and hospitality industry,” Curtis added.
    Other on-the-ground innovations set to shape ATM 2023 and future editions include a ban on single-use plastic across the venue, water refill stations, a reduction in the volume of printed graphics and signage, and the use of recyclable materials across the show.ADVERTISEMENTOn a broader level, ATM 2023 will explore the future of sustainable travel in line with its theme of ‘Working Towards Net Zero’.

    Budapest Airport Implements Salary Hikes of Over 17% for Employees Despite Economic Challenges

    It is important for Budapest Airport that the employees of the BUD group should be able to count on the company even in difficult economic circumstances, which is why the airport operator increased the salaries of its employees by an average of 13 percent last March and by 10 percent in October, in an extraordinary procedure, bringing the 2023 wage increase forward.Part of this year’s wage increase was thus already introduced last fall, and the employer, taking into account the current economic circumstances, implemented the second instalment of the wage increase in March this year, raising wages by a further 7 percent. The employees of the BUD group will thus take home more than 17 percent more on average than last fall, and the company has increased basic wages by an average of more than 30 percent in a year.
    Budapest Airport implemented two significant wage increases last year, in response to soaring inflation and the difficult economic conditions. In March, the wages of BUD group employees increased by an average of 13 percent (15 percent in some positions) and by a further 10 percent in October, with a part of the 2023 wage increase being brought forward. With a part of the 2023 wage increase being brought forward, Budapest Airport employees received increased salaries earlier than usual, thus supporting their livelihoods, and in March this year, the airport operator implemented the second part of the 2023 was increase. Together with the additional 7 per cent pay rise provided with March salaries, the wages of employees at Budapest Airport, RÜK Kft. and BUD Security Kft. increased by more than 17 per cent in six months and more than 30 per cent in a year, on average.
    The amount of the Christmas bonus and the loyalty bonus have also increased. The allowance for staff commuting to work by car from outside Budapest is rising to 20 HUF/km from March, while employees from Budapest will continue to be entitled to a gross monthly travel allowance of 14 286 HUF gross, the net amount of which is equal to the price of a monthly public transport pass. For staff commuting from outside the city by train or bus, 86% of the fare is reimbursed, in line with legal provisions.
    Budapest Airport also wants to support families, so in the case of paternity leave, where the father is entitled to ten working days of leave upon the birth of a child, but only 40% of the absentee pay is due after five days, the airport supplements the allowance to 100%.
    Zsuzsa Zahorán-Pirisi, the chief human resources officer of Budapest Airport, emphasized: “We recently received great recognition; Budapest Airport was named the best airport in Europe among airports with 15-25 million passengers, which would not have been possible without the dedicated work of BUD group employees. Even though 2022 was the third year impacted by the downturn caused by the global pandemic and full recovery is still to come, it is important for us that our employees feel that Budapest Airport is grateful for their work and understands the difficulties they face every day, due to the increased prices. We are doing everything we can to support them in this difficult situation, and I am proud that with our current wage offer, we have managed to provide an outstanding wage increase. The supportive atmosphere characteristic of the company further reinforces the stability we offer them as an employer.”ADVERTISEMENT

    The best (and worst) tourist attractions around the world

    Nobody wants to think ‘is this it?’ when arriving at a tourist attraction. But every traveller has experienced the disappointment of reality not living up to expectations at some point.With this in mind, Stasher, the luggage storage network, has ranked 99 global tourist attractions to find out what’s worth visiting and what might be worth skipping.
    The data analysts collected the latest city and country-level data available for key categories* including TripAdvisor and Google reviews, quality of local accommodation, distance from the nearest international airport, tourist safety and TikTok popularity to give each attraction an overall score out of ten.

    The study crowns the Hungarian Parliament Building in Budapest the world’s number one tourist attraction, scoring an impressive 7.34/10. The large neo-Gothic building overlooks the River Danube and is home to both the National Assembly of Hungary and a must-visit attraction in the city.
    Tourists agree too, with the experience boasting 93.4% ‘Very Good’ and ‘Excellent’ reviews on TripAdvisor and a high average Google Review score of 4.8/5. The quality of local accommodation for travellers is also positive, with an average rating of 8.6/10 on Booking.com and videos featuring the building have been viewed on TikTok 887.1m times and counting.ADVERTISEMENTIn second place is France’s iconic Disneyland Paris, scoring 7.17/10 in the study. The 5,510-acre resort recently celebrated its 30th anniversary and welcomed over 9.7 million visitors before the COVID-19 pandemic in 2019.
    Disneyland Paris is the most popular attraction on TikTok, with tagged posts being viewed a staggering 7.9 billion times. The local accommodation is also high quality – an average rating of 8.6/10 – and visitor reviews are largely positive. While the resort gets a good 4.5/5-star average on Google Reviews, TripAdvisor reviews are less positive, with 58.2% of visitors rating their experience as ‘Very Good’ or ‘Excellent’.
    The geo-thermal Blue Lagoon in Iceland is ranked the third-best tourist attraction in the world, with an overall score of 7.15/10. Located in an awe-inspiring volcanic landscape, tourists flock to the site to see and swim in the silica-rich blue water which is thought to have healing and rejuvenating powers.
    The Blue Lagoon is a favourite among TikTokers, with videos being viewed over 317.5 million times. Iceland is also considered to be one of the safest countries for tourists to visit, with a Global Peace Index score of 1.1/5 – the lower the score the safer a place is.
    The quality of local accommodation is among the highest in the study (average rating of 9.2/10) and visitor reviews are complimentary, with 80% of TripAdvisor reviews either ‘Very Good’ or ‘Excellent’ and an average score of 4.6/5 on Google Reviews.
    Making up the rest of the top five is Plaza de España in Seville, Spain (7.13/10) and Angkor Wat in Siem Reap, Cambodia (7.04/10).
    Plaza de España, a previous winner of Stasher’s top tourist attraction prize, is an architectural marvel formed in a half-circle with tiled alcoves. It houses central government offices, as well as welcoming millions of visitors each year.
    Angkor Wat, is the world’s largest religious monument, spanning 402 acres. The grand Buddhist temple features on the Cambodian national flag and was constructed using five million tons of sandstone – all carried by hand to the site.
    At the bottom of the study’s rankings in 99th position is the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles, scoring just 3.24/10. This is the second time the attraction has found itself in last place in Stasher’s global tourist attraction rankings.

    The world-renowned attraction on Hollywood Boulevard and Vine Steet honours the stars of the entertainment industry past and present. But despite being technically free to visit, the attraction has the lowest average Google Review score (4/5) and just 19.5% of TripAdvisor Reviews are ‘Very Good’ or ‘Excellent’. Many tourist reviews describe the experience as “dirty”, “feeling like they’re in a tourist trap”, “unsafe” and “overcrowded”.
    The Grand Bazaar in Istanbul, Turkey is thought to be one of the world’s oldest malls but fails to impress modern visitors, coming in second-to-last-place in the study (3.48/10). Tourists don’t rate their visits highly either – 4.1/5 is the average Google Review rating and just 41.2% of TripAdvisor reviews are ‘Very Good’ or ‘Excellent’.
    The iconic Taj Mahal in Agra, India also finds itself in the bottom five, scoring 3.83/10. The marble palace that is also a UNESCO World Heritage site is let down by its local accommodation ratings (7.1/10), being over 200 km from the nearest international airport and tourist safety score (2.6/5).
    Jacob Wedderburn-Day, Co-Founder of Stasher commented on the study’s findings:
    “The diversity of attractions in the top ten shows historical sites, natural wonders, religious temples, and amusement parks all make for great tourist destinations.
    “While reviews are a good indicator of whether an attraction is worth visiting or not, there are many other factors that can influence tourists’ experiences which our study has taken into account.
    “We hope our research encourages individuals to combine visiting popular destinations with places that aren’t being so regularly showcased to create their own unique experiences.”
