Oneworld, the airline alliance, has relaunched its dedicated Meetings & Events product, designed to make international event travel easier to organize. Oneworld Meetings & Events provides event planners with access to preferential fare products across the alliance’s 15 member airlines, connecting delegates with a global airline network serving nearly 1,000 destinations.

“Even in an increasingly digital world, research shows the enduring value of connecting in person, and that the best events create relationships, ideas and opportunities that are difficult to replicate virtually,” said Roger Blackburn, vice president of commercial and loyalty at Oneworld. As a Globetrender report highlights, he said, “these large meetings around the world are not only here to stay, but growing in importance. The relaunch of Oneworld Meetings & Events, said Blackburn, will make it easier for organizations to bring people together for these important opportunities for connection.”

Oneworld Meetings & Events is designed for a minimum of 50 independently travelling delegates converging on a shared destination. Event organizers receive a dedicated booking link that can be shared directly with attendees or added to an event website. Delegates arrange their own flights from their respective departure points, choosing journeys that suit their individual schedules.

Oneworld Meetings & Events, according to an announcement, has been developed with a broad range of gatherings in mind, from corporate meetings and industry conferences to international association conventions, religious gatherings and large private celebrations.
