For the third year in a row, the Aruba Tourism Authority has signed on as the supporting sponsor for The Boston Globe Travel Show, which will be held at the Seaport World Trade Center in Boston on February 20-22. The Aruba Tourism Authority has led the island’s marketing efforts for more than 50 years, encouraging leisure and business travelers to choose Aruba for their holidays, meetings, incentives, and conventions.
