Pre-Scheduled Appointments (PSAs), Destination Presentations & Hotel Presentations What is a Pre-Scheduled Appointment (PSA)? A Pre-Scheduled Appointment (PSA) is a one to one appointment between a buyer and an exhibitor. Each buyer must select 10 exhibitor appointment preferences per day of attendance (i.e. 20 total preferences for the 2 show days), in order for AIBTM to match appointments with buyer and exhibitor availability. Approximately 4 weeks prior to AIBTM, we will match a minimum of eight (8) appointments per day of attendance (i.e. 16 total appointments for the 2 show days). Your Pre-Scheduled Appointments then will be available to view in your Hosted Buyer Zone. Each PSA is scheduled for 20 minutes and start every half hour throughout the day. There is a 10 minute “travel� period after each appointment.
What is a Destination Presentation/Hotel Presentation? Destination and Hotel Presentations provide you with the opportunity to learn more about a country, region or city, their services available and specific hotel brands. Destination and Hotel Presentations are appointments in the form of presentations given to a group of individual Hosted Buyers who are interested in a particular destination or hotel brand. Each buyer must select one Destination/Hotel Presentation per day of attendance during the 2 exhibition days. Selected Destination/Hotel Presentations will be available to view in your Hosted Buyer Zone schedule immediately after selection.
Each Destination/Hotel Presentation is scheduled for 20 minutes and are offered at 12:30pm and 2:30pm on each day of the show.

Pre-Scheduled Appointments (PSAs), Destination Presentations & Hotel Presentations Step 1 – Arranging appointments
There are two ways for Hosted Buyers to Pre-schedule appointments at AIBTM:
1. 2.
AIBTM Matching System with Appointment Preference Selection Self-Selected Appointments (SSAs)
Matching System with Appointment Preference Selection (must be selected by May 9th, 2014) • In the Hosted Buyer Zone, you will select 10 Appointment Preferences per day of attendance by searching the Exhibitor list. You may search by company name, products/services and geographic location. You will rank your selections in order of priority: 1 being the most important, and 10 (or 20 if attending 2 days) being less important. • The Appointment Preferences are automatically matched (via computer) against exhibitor availability on May 12, 2014. The system will match buyers with up to 8 appointments per day to create a custom schedule of confirmed appointments. • Note: 10 preferences are selected but 8 are matched – the two overage allows for excess in case an exhibitor schedule is already full. • The system will not match multiple appointments with the same exhibitor. • Your preferences will remain in the selection tool until the appointment match has taken place on May 12th, 2014. • AIBTM will not match an appointment taking place at the same time as Destination/Hotel Presentations, and appointments will be matched in line with approved arrival and departure times.
8 For questions, contact aibtm-hosted@reedexpo.com
Pre-Scheduled Appointments (PSAs), Destination Presentations & Hotel Presentations Self-Selected Appointments (SSAs) • After the Appointment match on May 12th, 2014 (noted above), you will have access to the Self-Selected Appointment scheduler in the Hosted Buyer Zone to make additional appointments to maximize your time. • The SSA tool allows you to search the exhibitor list and request an appointment at a mutually available time. The tool is designed for you to book exhibitor appointments with whom you do not already have a pre-scheduled appointment. Only available time slots will be displayed. Buyers may use both the Matching System and the SSA system to fulfil and/or exceed their appointment commitment.
Step 2 – Destination Presentations (DPs) and Hotel Presentations (HPs) (must be selected by May 9th, 2014) • Hosted Buyers are required to select 1 Destination Presentation or Hotel Presentation per day of attendance from the list of available presentations via the Hosted Buyer Zone. • Destination/Hotel presentations are group presentations which give an overview and introduction to a specific location, country or region, or hotel brand. • Destination/Hotel presentations are held two times per day at 12:30pm and 2:30pm and are 20 minutes long. • Each Destination/Hotel Presentation has a limited number of places available; we suggest you make your selection as early as possible to ensure your place. Top Tip: Please note that the attendance of all appointments and Destination Presentations is mandatory. If you are running late or miss an appointment, please visit the exhibitor at the earliest opportunity to arrange another time for the appointment. If you do not appear for your appointments you will be reported as a “no show” and may incur “no show” penalties.

Step 3 – Viewing your confirmed Schedule • Once AIBTM has completed the appointment match, you will be able to see confirmed appointments in your schedule. You will receive an email advising you as soon as this is available. • The schedule will also include education, group functions, Destination/Hotel Presentations and AIBTM networking functions you are attending. • If you have not been matched with a minimum of 8 pre-scheduled appointments per day of attendance, you will be required to make additional appointments via the self-scheduled appointment tool, available in the Hosted Buyer Zone.

Travel arrangements Flights Step 1 – Choosing your preferred airports You must select a departure airport which is closest to your home location during the application process.
Step 2 – Selecting your flights Once qualified and accepted, you will automatically be contacted by our BCD Travel Partner via e-mail to offer a coach flight option. You will have 48 hours to respond back to BCD to book your flight and/or to discuss alternate flight options. BCD will only book flights which will conform to specific arrival and departure times within the show schedule. If you would like to extend your stay, requests can be processed after they are qualified. Flights will be arranged for you based on the show schedule and your registration details. Arrival flights will usually be booked for early morning departure and show departure flights will be booked for the evening of June 12th, 2014, after the show ends.
Step 3 – Flight changes Once a flight is booked, travel change requests will be considered on a case by case basis. Flight changes will incur a travel change charge to be paid by you, the buyer, in addition to any flight fare differences. The cost will be charged to your credit card provided during registration.
Flight Reimbursement Options If you select the flight reimbursement option during registration, you have agreed to arrange and purchase your own flights/travel at your own expense.
The guidelines are as follows:
1. 2.
You must submit your full flight itinerary to your AIBTM Account Manager for written approval BEFORE you book your flight. You will be reimbursed ONLY for the monetary amount noted on the registration site, per your originating country or state, regardless of your actual flight fare. There will be no exceptions. Reimbursement amounts are based on average fare costs from each location for June 2014.
11 For questions, contact aibtm-hosted@reedexpo.com
Buyers Who Cannot Accept a “Hosted� Offer If you are unable to accept complimentary flights and/or accommodation due to your company guidelines, you may register for one of these alternate options during the application process:
1. 2.
Semi Hosted: includes all the Hosted Buyer benefits and accommodation; does not include flights. Appointment only: includes all the Hosted Buyer benefits; does not include flights or accommodation.
Ground Transfers On arrival at Orlando International airport (airport code: MCO), you will be greeted by AIBTM ground transfer staff who will direct you to the Hosted Buyer transportation. Dependent upon arrival date and time, you will either be transferred directly to the exhibition venue (Orange County Convention Center) or to your hotel. Hosted Buyers who choose to arrive and/or depart outside the official show arrival/departure dates will not be provided ground transfers. If you are transferred directly to the Orange County Convention Center, there will be secure luggage storage located near the bus drop-off area.
Top Tip: Buyers who book their own flights under the reimbursement option must enter the flight information in the Hosted Buyer Zone in order to be listed on the ground transfer manifest.
Your AIBTM Account Manager will provide more information on Hosted Buyer transfers closer to the show.
