OUR STRUCTURE
The General Assembly is the highest governing body of Association of European Travel and Tourism Agencies (AETTA). The General Assembly is held once a year and has the power to decide on most important areas of the life of AETTA including membership, annual budget and appointment of the President and the Secretary General. The General Assembly also determines the objectives and specific areas to be addressed by AETTA. All the decisions are taken by the simple majority of the votes cast by strategic members.
The President is elected among the strategic members of the Association for a two-year term on a rotating basis. The decisions taken by AETTA's General Assembly are executed by the Secretary General under the supervision of the President. The Secretary General is supported by staff and five research groups dedicated to safety and security, environment, transport, competition and infrastructure. The research groups are coordinated by an AETTA staff member and consist of representatives of strategic members.
