May 21, 2026

Planning a trip that includes the Middle East? Here’s an update that might affect your travel plans. The organizers of the Arabian Travel Market – the region’s biggest tourism conference – have announced another postponement of their Dubai event.

The conference, which brings together travel professionals from across the Middle East, was delayed “to increase participation and maximize business opportunities in the tourism industry,” according to the organizers. While they haven’t announced the exact new dates yet, this marks the second postponement due to ongoing regional security tensions.

For travelers considering visits to Israel and the broader Middle East region, this reflects the current cautious approach many in the travel industry are taking. However, Israel’s tourism infrastructure remains robust and welcoming to international visitors.
