What Our Members are Saying:

"My main highlight in 2022 was the good vibes to collaborate and work closely as partners. I think sharing and embracing new ideas to do business is the next step in our evolution. Exhibiting with ALHI allows our brand to reconnect and be exposed to this community and also the industry updates on where ALHI is with future programs. I appreciate the opportunity to promote Mexico as a travel destination to Europeans mainly, and I am confident that over the years, ALHI consistently supports both Posadas Brand and my resort in bringing more group programs our way.", said Eva Lopez, Associate Director of Group Sales at Grand Fiesta Americana Coral Beach Cancun.
