Reflecting on an Inspiring Week in Cannes: Building the Future of Travel
By Duncan Greenfield-Turk
Wednesday, 18th December 2024
 

What a whirlwind week it has been in Cannes! From the moment I stepped onto the red carpet at the Palais des Festivals for the Global Forum to the final champagne toast at the Hôtel Martinez Closing Party, this week has been nothing short of extraordinary.

The opportunity to meet with so many incredible partners, suppliers, and fellow travel professionals has left me inspired and energised about the future of travel.

I am deeply grateful for the time and effort everyone invested in sharing their knowledge, ideas, and innovative experiences.

Highlights from Cannes

Over the past week, I’ve had the privilege of meeting representatives from around the globe—Japan, South Africa, Portugal, Argentina, and more.

Each meeting offered a unique insight into the world of luxury travel, from immersive cultural experiences to sustainable travel solutions and hidden gems off the beaten path.

But one standout moment for me was meeting the remarkable team from Boleega. Their approach to personalisation and craftsmanship in the travel space is truly next-level. They’re redefining what it means to create bespoke experiences, blending artistry and innovation in ways that resonate deeply with the modern luxury traveller.

From custom-tailored itineraries to extraordinary handcrafted touches, Boleega embodies the future of personalised travel.

Gratitude and Excitement for What’s Ahead

I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to every supplier and partner who took the time to meet with me and share their vision for the future of travel. Your insights and passion have inspired me to think bigger and bolder when designing unforgettable journeys for my clients.

This week wasn’t just about business; it was about connections, creativity, and collaboration. It reminded me why I love this industry—because we have the privilege of crafting experiences that enrich lives, foster understanding, and make the world feel just a little more connected.

The Road Ahead

As I reflect on this incredible week, I’m excited to take what I’ve learned and transform it into opportunities for my clients. Whether it’s exploring new partnerships, curating unforgettable experiences, or pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in luxury travel, this week has set the stage for an exciting future.

To all the amazing people I met this week—let’s stay in touch and continue building the future of travel together!

💬 Let’s connect: What do you think is the next big trend in luxury travel? How do you see personalisation shaping the industry? I’d love to hear your thoughts!
