If you're interested in #sustainable travel practices, you need to join us for the groundbreaking session, “Can Carbon-Based Air Contracts Save Business Travel?” on July 23!

Panelists OLIVIER Benoit of Advito, Scott Gillespie of tClara, and Glenn Hollister of United Airlines will explore: 👉Understanding the core concepts of carbon-based airline contracts 👉Debating the costs, benefits, risks, and implications of these contracts 👉Building a strong procurement-based case for buyers and airlines interested in innovation Come listen, weigh in, and together we’ll look at the transformative implications of this bold concept. Your insights could be pivotal in shaping the future of business travel.

What an incredible first full day at Cannes TFWA (Tax Free World Association), filled with thought-provoking insights from key speakers. Three key takeaways that really resonated with us: 1️⃣ Cruise Retail on the Rise: The TFWA President's opening remarks highlighted the booming cruise retail sector—more than 1 in 4 guests are new to cruising, and 1 in 3 are under 40. We're seeing significant shifts in guest profiles and exciting growth in this space! 2️⃣ Hillary Clinton's insights on technology: In her dynamic conversation with Stephen Sackur, Clinton emphasized how technology is reshaping public discourse. With a "super-computer" in every pocket, there's an incredible opportunity—and responsibility—to create relevant and engaging content for the evolving demographic groups who are our customers. 3️⃣ Experience is Key: At a #departmentfortradeandbusiness / DFNI event this afternoon, Tab Musleh underscored the importance of experience in retail. Customers today want more than just a product—they seek storytelling, trials, tastings, and something different. This rings true for both cruise and airport retail. Looking forward to another action-packed day of meetings and discussions tomorrow! #TFWA #TravelRetail #CruiseIndustry #RetailInnovation
