New Ideas For Luxury Travel
Travel Edge wrapped up its Limitless virtual luxury conference this past weekend, providing over 400 attendees with two days of “inspiration, education, and connectivity.”
Highlights included keynote addresses from Kyle Mabry, VP Global Sales at American Airlines, and Jane Burnell, Vice President Global Luxury Sales, Hilton Luxury Brands.
Destination spotlights were featured throughout, showcasing some of the finest resorts and experiences for clients, while the panel discussion moderated by Annie Fitzsimmons, Luxury Travel + Advisor Editor for AFAR, the three professional power sessions and organized roundtables provided interactive networking opportunities.
In addition to the compelling content and updates, guests were immersed with experiential moments, including a Captain-led ship tour, a walk-through of Quebec’s outstanding Ice Hotel, an “aloha” from a surf shack in Hawaii, and many more.
Michael Johnson, President of Travel Edge, said: “This Limitless was an amazing opportunity for our luxury travel advisors to come together as a community for support and inspiration.”
Johnson continued: “The world is beginning to re-prioritize travel, and keeping our advisors connected and informed is more important than ever. Being virtual has shown the importance creating compelling content that really engages and informs our advisors. And their feedback on this event was outstanding. We couldn’t be more proud.”
