Skål Benefits

Skål is the only international organization whose members are active in all sectors of the tourism industry.  These professionals gather at local, national and international levels in an atmosphere of friendship to talk about topics of mutual interest.

The word Skål comes from Scandinavia and has a long tradition. The “Skål“, a bowl with a welcome drink, was offered to visitors when they entered the home. One would say “Skål” as a sign of friendship.
