Forbes Travel Guide 2026 Star Awards: Luxury Travel’s Global Recalibration

February 11, 2026 By admin Leave a Comment

The 2026 Star Awards from Forbes Travel Guide mark a subtle but unmistakable shift in how luxury defines itself. In its 68th annual edition, the ratings now span more than 100 countries, extending into destinations that not long ago sat outside the traditional luxury circuit—Bhutan, Croatia, Georgia, Grenada, Laos, Poland, Sri Lanka, Tanzania and Uzbekistan among them. It feels … [Read more...] about Forbes Travel Guide 2026 Star Awards: Luxury Travel’s Global Recalibration

Disney Cruise Line Summer 2027 Itineraries, Europe, Caribbean, Alaska & Southeast Asia

February 11, 2026 By admin Leave a Comment

By the time summer 2027 arrives, families looking at cruise maps will notice something interesting: the fleet of Disney Cruise Line will be stretched across three continents, from the fjords of Norway to the warm shallows of The Bahamas and the humid skyline of Singapore. It feels less like a seasonal deployment and more like a deliberate global statement. Europe, Alaska, the … [Read more...] about Disney Cruise Line Summer 2027 Itineraries, Europe, Caribbean, Alaska & Southeast Asia

SBTS–ZIM Connections Travel eSIM Launch, Live Now, Japan Focus

February 10, 2026 By admin Leave a Comment

A new piece quietly slid into the global travel infrastructure today, the kind you only really notice when it works smoothly and then fades into the background of your trip. SBTS, the joint venture between BTS and SoftBank Corp., together with ZIM Connections, announced the commercial launch of a travel eSIM service, with the first rollout squarely aimed at inbound and outbound … [Read more...] about SBTS–ZIM Connections Travel eSIM Launch, Live Now, Japan Focus

Bedouin Hospitality at IMTM 2026, Tel Aviv, Israel

Bedouin Hospitality at IMTM 2026, Tel Aviv, Israel

The scene unfolds inside the controlled chaos of a travel trade show hall, yet this corner feels oddly grounded, almost anchored to the desert rather than the polished concrete floor beneath it. At the Bedouin hospitality stand, color does most of the talking first: deep reds, greens, and blacks woven into thick striped textiles that drape over counters and spill onto the floor … [Read more...] about Bedouin Hospitality at IMTM 2026, Tel Aviv, Israel

How Risky Is Visiting Georgia Right Now?

How Risky Is Visiting Georgia Right Now?

The photo sets the tone before the argument even begins. A brightly lit national pavilion rises inside a cavernous exhibition hall, all clean lines, pale wood panels, and glowing white signage that repeats the slogan “Emotions Are Georgia” from every angle, suspended like a promise above the crowd. Large, high-resolution screens show postcard versions of the country: … [Read more...] about How Risky Is Visiting Georgia Right Now?

Destination First: How Places Market Themselves Before Selling Anything Else

Destination First: How Places Market Themselves Before Selling Anything Else

The photo catches a moment that feels almost incidental, which is exactly why it works. At the Taiwan pavilion at IMTM 2026, a small group of exhibitors stands close together behind a counter, heads slightly bowed, hands busy with brochures and badges, the choreography of a trade fair happening without performance. Pink lanyards cut clean lines across sweaters and jackets, soft … [Read more...] about Destination First: How Places Market Themselves Before Selling Anything Else

Selling the Sea on Solid Ground: Cruise Marketing at Travel Trade Shows

Selling the Sea on Solid Ground: Cruise Marketing at Travel Trade Shows

This image from IMTM 2026 is a neat, almost textbook example of how cruise brands market aspiration through structure, and how the romance of the open sea is deliberately staged inside fluorescent-lit exhibition halls. The MSC Cruises and Explora Journeys pavilion doesn’t try to overwhelm. It doesn’t rely on flashing screens or loud promises. Instead, it builds authority … [Read more...] about Selling the Sea on Solid Ground: Cruise Marketing at Travel Trade Shows

Does Showing Up Still Matter? The Real Payoff of Travel Trade Shows

Does Showing Up Still Matter? The Real Payoff of Travel Trade Shows

The first thing you notice in the image is the contrast, and it’s almost theatrical. In the foreground, a small trade-show booth with a clean counter, branded in calm blue, staffed by tired but alert professionals clutching paper cups of coffee. Lanyards hang loosely, jackets are draped over chair backs, conversations hover between polite sales pitch and genuine curiosity. … [Read more...] about Does Showing Up Still Matter?

Queen Mary 2 Cruise Ship

Travel and Tour World has unveiled its Top 50 Cruise Ships Around the World for 2026, and beyond the glossy headlines and superlatives, what stands out is how clearly this list mirrors the evolving psychology of global travelers. These ships are no longer judged purely by size, novelty, or onboard spectacle, but by how convincingly they deliver a sense of place, timing, and … [Read more...] about Top 50 Cruise Ships Around the World for 2026 Revealed by Travel and Tour World

IMTM 2026, February 3–4, Expo Tel Aviv

February 1, 2026 By admin Leave a Comment

It’s a reminder of what tourism trade shows are actually about

The first image captures a moment that already feels like a preview of what’s to come: a large, airy exhibition hall, people moving between stands, conversations happening in small circles, bodies slightly angled toward one another in that familiar trade-show posture that means business, networking, curiosity. It looks calm, almost routine, but the timing gives it weight. IMTM … [Read more...] about IMTM 2026, February 3–4, Expo Tel Aviv
