Luxury Travel: Meet the Media
Join us for an unmissable deep dive into the uber-chic world of luxury travel from three of the sector’s acknowledged media experts.
Our guest panellists will guide PR professionals through the latest trends shaping luxury travel, from cutting-edge wellness offerings to once-in-a-lifetime (for the mere mortal), bucket-list experiences – and will discuss the destinations, resorts and hotels that look (jet) set to entice luxury travellers to splash out in 2025.
Travel PR professionals will be guided on how to pitch to our experts and how to build lasting relationships with key luxury travel media.
Register now to enjoy an hour of pure and unadulterated luxury in our company, as we bring you our second TravMedia Meets webinar of the year.

What We’ll Cover
Our writers will consider the top destinations for luxury travel in 2025, and the sector’s latest offerings to woo high-spending travellers – from conservation experiences to coolcations, ‘six-star’ hotels to private jet travel. Expect input also on the issues underpinning media angles such as sustainability, geopolitics, and, of course, tax and wealth management!
Tune in for a masterclass as our experts give travel PRs the insider track on how to pitch for inclusion in their stories, and how to build long-term relationships. For anyone with a luxury brief, it’s time to make a date in your diary.
