Qatar Airways was the sponsor of the Airline Public Relations Organisation’s APRO supper networking party held at the Hyde Park Corner Continental Hotel. Some 60 journalists, in-house media types and PR consultancies attended. Qatar’s Head of Corporate Communications, Updesh Kapur, well known in the UK from his time at Virgin Atlantic and Travel Weekly, came over especially from Doha for the occasion.
The event also marked the publication of the APRO 2011/2012 media guide to airline contacts, now 54 pages. The DL size booklet lists all airlines, airports, affiliates and PR agencies involved with the industry, plus useful contacts. www.airlinepr.org
