Celebrity Cruises Launches ‘Dream Makers’ Program for New Celebrity Xcel®

The post Celebrity Cruises Launches ‘Dream Makers’ Program for New Celebrity Xcel® appeared first on TD (Travel Daily Media) Travel Daily Media.

In an exciting industry first, Celebrity Cruises is inviting travellers to dream up their perfect vacation aboard the new Celebrity Xcel® through its innovative Xcel ‘Dream MakersSM’ program. This global initiative allows vacationers to contribute their ideas and preferences across culinary, entertainment, and interior design to help finalise the cruise line’s newest billion-dollar ship, set to launch in November 2025.

A Collaborative Approach

Celebrity Cruises aims to involve its guests in the decision-making process to ensure their satisfaction with the final product. Michael Scheiner, Chief Marketing and Product Officer of Celebrity Cruises, shares, “We want to ensure our guests love our products and experiences, so involving them in the process to perfect Celebrity Xcel was a great way to achieve this. Celebrity Cruises is known for groundbreaking innovation in ship design and experiences unlike any other at sea. When Xcel launches, guests won’t have just found their happy place, they’ll have helped us build it.”

The Role of Dream Makers

Dream Makers, passionate contributors from around the world, will have the final say on key elements of the Celebrity Xcel’s offerings. Through online polls and unique experiential in-person events, the public will help perfect the ship’s design, culinary, and entertainment options. They will put their skills to the test by:

  • Choosing textiles, managing interior design elements, and curating service offerings.
  • Selecting their favourite dishes and beverages, choosing table settings, and shaping dining concepts.
  • Providing input on headline shows, curating props and costumes, selecting playlists, and participating in decisions for pivotal entertainment positions onboard.

Pushing Boundaries of Leisure Travel

With the help of Dream Makers, the Celebrity Xcel is set to push the boundaries of leisure travel. The ship celebrated a major milestone on January 18, floating out of dry dock at the Chantiers de l’Atlantique shipyard in Saint-Nazaire, France. This float-out ceremony marked the completion of the ship’s exterior, bringing it one step closer to welcoming guests.

The Celebrity Xcel will also advance Royal Caribbean Group’s commitment to sustainability with its first tri-fuel capable engine, representing a significant step toward Destination Net Zero, the company’s vision for net-zero emissions by 2050.

Inaugural Voyages

Celebrity Xcel’s inaugural season will launch from Fort Lauderdale, offering seven-night itineraries to the Bahamas, Mexico, Cayman Islands, Puerto Plata, St. Thomas, and St. Maarten. In Summer 2026, the ship will embark on her inaugural European season with seven- to eleven-night journeys from Barcelona and Athens, including new overnight stays in Madeira, Portugal.

Hong Kong Airlines Touches Down on the Gold Coast Just in Time for Lunar New Year

The post Hong Kong Airlines Touches Down on the Gold Coast Just in Time for Lunar New Year appeared first on TD (Travel Daily Media) Travel Daily Media.

In a highly anticipated move, Hong Kong Airlines has resumed its Australian services after a six-year hiatus. The inaugural flight arrived on the Gold Coast in perfect time for the 2025 Lunar New Year celebrations, marking a significant boost for local tourism and trade.

The seasonal service is set to bring 5,000 seats to the Gold Coast over the next four weeks, with flights operating until 15 February. The festive atmosphere at the terminal was electric as lion dancers kicked off the celebrations. Among those present to welcome passengers from the first flight were Queensland Tourism Minister Andrew Powell, Queensland Airports Limited CEO Amelia Evans, and other dignitaries.

Tourism Minister Andrew Powell expressed his excitement at the influx of visitors from Hong Kong during the Lunar New Year period, highlighting the positive impact on the local economy and job market. “We are excited to welcome thousands of travellers over this four-week period,” Minister Powell said. “This service is expected to bring $9.14 million in overnight visitor expenditure, supporting up to 90 local jobs.”

The seasonal service offers visitors quick and easy access from the tarmac to the beach, presenting an excellent opportunity for the local economy and tourism operators. This initiative is another success story for the $200 million Attracting Aviation Investment Fund.

Queensland Airports Limited CEO Amelia Evans was thrilled to welcome Hong Kong Airlines back to the Gold Coast. “We’re delighted to welcome Hong Kong Airlines’ guests to our beautiful city and can’t wait for them to experience the best of an Australian summer across the whole region,” Ms Evans said. She recalled that China was the Gold Coast’s number one international market before the pandemic, attracting more than 300,000 visitors a year. Evans expressed hope that this renewed connection with Hong Kong would pave the way for long-term services across key markets in Hong Kong, the Greater Bay Area, and Mainland China.

Hong Kong Airlines Chairman Mr Yan Bo celebrated the full flight of passengers on their inaugural voyage. “We are delighted to have a full flight of passengers on our first voyage, with around 300 travellers coming to experience Queensland’s warm climate and exciting tourist activities,” Mr Yan Bo said. He also looked forward to welcoming visitors from the Gold Coast and Queensland to Hong Kong during their operation period, encouraging them to immerse in the vibrant Lunar New Year celebrations and enjoy authentic Hong Kong cuisine.

Hong Kong Airlines President and Captain Mr Sun, who joined the cockpit crew for the first flight, emphasised the airline’s commitment to providing high-quality services. “As one of Hong Kong’s leading full-service airlines, Hong Kong Airlines is committed to providing high-quality, comprehensive services, including flexible baggage allowance options, complimentary inflight meals, and comfortable seats, to ensure that every passenger can enjoy a pleasant journey,” Mr Sun stated.

The return of Hong Kong Airlines’ service was met with enthusiasm by Acting City of Gold Coast Mayor Donna Gates. “It’s a touchdown for our city, and what a welcome return after six years,” said Cr Gates. “Let’s hope that just like Hong Kong’s famous orchid, something magical grows from the return of this seasonal service to our city. We have so much to share, and I applaud all involved.”

Tourism and Events Queensland’s (TEQ) Ollie Philpot and other partners marked the milestone arrival. Mr. Philpot noted the collaborative effort between Hong Kong Airlines, Experience Gold Coast, and Tourism Australia to highlight the Gold Coast in Hong Kong and Mainland China. “This is an exciting moment, and one we hope signals the beginning of a major boost to the festive period on the Gold Coast,” said Mr Philpot.

Experience Gold Coast CEO John Warn celebrated the resumption of Hong Kong Airlines’ services as a significant step forward for the tourism industry. “China is a hugely important source market for the Gold Coast, so we are thrilled to see Hong Kong Airlines’ services lift off again,” Mr Warn said. He noted that visitation from China had increased to 56,000 visitors in the year ending September 2024. “While the market is still on the long road to recovery, this is a very positive sign, and we’re confident the new Hong Kong Airlines seasonal service will only bolster those numbers further.”

This seasonal service will continue to operate until February 15th, 2025, thanks to the support of the Queensland Government’s Attracting Aviation Investment Fund. With the renewed connection between Hong Kong and the Gold Coast, the region will enjoy a prosperous and vibrant Lunar New Year.

Consumers in favour of sustainable travel but cost is king: WTTC

The post Consumers in favour of sustainable travel but cost is king: WTTC appeared first on TD (Travel Daily Media) Travel Daily Media.

The World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) unveiled its latest report, exploring the critical gap between travellers’ desire for sustainable options and their actual behaviour. Launched at FITUR 2025, Madrid, the report Bridging the Say-Do Gap: How to Create an Effective Sustainability Strategy by Knowing Your Customers was developed in collaboration with WTTC knowledge partner YouGov.
The report explores the disconnect between what travellers say about sustainability and the choices they ultimately make.
It provides actionable guidance to Travel & Tourism businesses on how they can address this gap by offering solutions that make sustainable travel both more accessible and more attractive, ultimately balancing economic growth and environmental responsibility.
The study, drawing on a survey of more than 10,000 respondents, categorised travellers into six consumer segments, ranging from the eco-conscious “Hopeful Worriers” to the disengaged “Climate Change Agnostics”. Each group comes with unique behaviours, priorities, and barriers to selecting sustainable choices.
Understanding these diverse perspectives is essential for businesses to craft effective sustainability strategies that resonate with their audience and drive real impact.
According to the data, cost and quality remain the dominant priorities for travellers, outweighing sustainability considerations. Across all consumer segments, more than 50% say cost is the most important factor influencing purchasing decisions, while around 30% prioritise quality.

In stark contrast, sustainability is a primary factor for only a small minority, ranging from 11% to 7%, even among the most environmentally conscious groups.
A lack of visibility also remains a significant barrier to progress. Over 10% of respondents reported no exposure to sustainability messaging or information through any channel, including mainstream media, social platforms, or community-driven initiatives.
Julia Simpson, WTTC President & CEO, said: “Travellers care about sustainability but when buying travel, cost and quality are king. Customers expect businesses to create affordable sustainable options. But many WTTC companies inspire change – whether that is regrowing coral reefs or reducing food waste. Customers engage with brands that have strong values.
“I am delighted to collaborate with YouGov for such a crucial piece of work. By closing the say-do gap, we not only protect the planet but ensure more rewarding experiences for customers and a brighter and more resilient future for our planet.”
Research was also carried out by WTTC Member, Trip.com, culminating in The Sustainable Travel Consumer Report 2024. Trip.com’s report supports WTTC findings, noting the importance of cost and making sustainability hassle-free, encouraging consumers towards more sustainable action.
Business Recommendations
WTTC’s report offers seven key recommendations to help the industry bridge this divide, calling on businesses to lead by example, partnering where possible with other businesses and governments on sustainability initiatives.
To drive real change, the report recommends highlighting the economic and personal benefits of sustainable travel, ensuring eco-friendly options are simple and convenient for consumers, and introducing tiered reward programmes to motivate action at all levels.
Tailored marketing that speaks directly to the values and needs of individual consumers has been shown to significantly increase engagement across different segments. Designing out unsustainable options to make sustainability the default choice can facilitate the decision-making process and improve the overall experience.
Many Travel & Tourism companies are actively adopting sustainable practices and communicating them to consumers.
Intrepid Travel prominently labels trip itineraries with their carbon impact and offsets
emissions automatically. Iberostar leverages AI technology to reduce food waste in its hotels and prioritises underutilised fish stocks. Hilton has equipped over 1,800 hotels with EV charging points, with nearly a third of its EMEA properties powered entirely by renewable energy.
As climate action becomes an imperative rather than an option, this report equips businesses with the tools and insights they need to thrive in a rapidly changing world.
WTTC urges all Travel & Tourism business leaders to leverage this report to inspire innovation and chart a sustainable path forward.

CSMIA International Cargo grows 17% over CY2023

The post CSMIA International Cargo grows 17% over CY2023 appeared first on TD (Travel Daily Media) Travel Daily Media.

Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSMIA) capped off 2024 on a high note, solidifying its role as a cornerstone of India’s air freight network by achieving significant milestones in cargo operations. International cargo volumes rose by an impressive 17 percent. Demonstrating continued efficiency, the airport’s cargo operations achieved the highest-ever daily tonnage of 204 MT, marking another milestone in the airport’s commitment to enabling seamless global trade.

CSMIA’s Cargo Terminal achieved remarkable growth across both international and domestic cargo categories. In March 2024, the cargo operations set a new milestone by handling a record-breaking 60,659 metric tonnes (MT) of international cargo, underscoring its strategic significance and operational excellence.

Throughout the year, CSMIA significantly enhanced global connectivity, now serving 687 international destinations. This expansion included new destinations such as Tripoli, Khabarovsk, Kaliningrad, Zhukovsky, Tyumen, Damascus, Honinabi, and Chisinau. Domestically, the airport reinforced its position as a vital logistics hub, prioritising pharmaceuticals, automobile goods, and dangerous goods (DG), thereby strengthening its role in a comprehensive air cargo ecosystem. Notably, international cargo volumes at CSMIA were split between 55 percent of exports and 45 percent of imports, with London, Frankfurt, Chicago, Dubai, and Amsterdam emerging as the top global destinations.

On the international front, pharmaceuticals, agro products, and automobile goods emerged as key drivers, recording year-on-year increases of 24 percent, 22 percent, and 20 percent, respectively. On the domestic front, automobile goods led the surge with a remarkable 31 percent growth, followed by engineering goods at 22 percent and post office mail at 15 percent. The festive season further amplified the e-commerce boom, with international shipments witnessing a 53 percent year-on-year growth and domestic e-commerce goods achieving an 11 percent increase. Agricultural exports also reached new heights, with mango shipments hitting approximately 4,700 MT.

The year was also marked by key infrastructure enhancement, including the installation of a 10 MT weighing scale in the export section and the renovation of the main gate with advanced security and vehicle management systems, enhancing operational efficiency and safety. CSMIA was honoured with the prestigious “Cargo Airport of the Year Award” at Air Cargo India for the sixth consecutive year, reinforcing its industry leadership. Sustainability efforts stood out with the destruction of 151 MT of uncleared cargo, exemplifying the airport’s commitment to environmental responsibilities.

CSMIA’s robust cargo operations were further bolstered by the addition of six new cargo airlines in 2024, including Kenya Airways, SF Airlines, and SolitAir, enhancing connectivity and capacity.

The airport’s ongoing digital transformation played a pivotal role in handling increasing cargo volumes. Systems like the Air Cargo Community System (AMAX) and the D-Cube platform for digital import delivery streamlined operations, reduced paper usage, and minimised dwell time. Additionally, the Turant mobile application offered real-time shipment tracking for temperature-controlled cargo, ensuring seamless operations.

CSMIA’s strategic investments in infrastructure, digitisation, and operational excellence position it as a global leader in air cargo logistics. As India’s air cargo industry anticipates continued growth in 2025, CSMIA remains committed to advancing its capabilities, driving efficiency, and setting new benchmarks in the global cargo landscape.

Cebu Pacific celebrates Philippine tribal traditions with its QR Flight Codes

The post Cebu Pacific celebrates Philippine tribal traditions with its QR Flight Codes appeared first on TD (Travel Daily Media) Travel Daily Media.

Cebu Pacific encourages everyone to discover more of the Philippines’ diverse cultural heritage as it unveiled its latest initiative to promote Philippine tourism: the QR Flight Codes patterned after the traditional weaves of various local communities. 

Developed in partnership with the Department of Science and Technology’s Philippine Textile Research Institute, these codes underscore CEB’s commitment to enhancing domestic tourism while shining a light on the artistry and cultural heritage of Filipino weaving communities. 

Chief marketing and customer experience officer Candice Iyog said: “Cebu Pacific takes pride in honoring the rich tapestry of our nation’s cultural heritage. Using our business as a platform for inclusive and sustainable growth, we celebrate the artistry of our local weaving communities, ensuring their timeless traditions are preserved and their stories are appreciated by every Filipino.”

Five distinctive weaving styles

The QR Flight Codes highlight five unique weaving styles from different parts of the country: the intricate and nature-inspired markings of Ilocos Norte’s Binakol, the elegantly-colored stripes of Occidental Mindoro’s Ramit, the bright hues and iconic plaid design of Iloilo’s Hablon, the bold and colorful checkered patterns of Antique’s Patadyong, and the striking geometric patterns and vivid colors of Zamboanga’s Yakan.

Scanning these QR Flight Codes, placed strategically on billboards along major thoroughfares and airports across the country and in select magazines, will allow travelers to learn more about these traditional weaves and discover more attractions in the destinations where they originate. 

Cebu Pacific collaborated with local weaving communities across the country to ensure that the history and significance of these fabrics are preserved in making the QR Flight Codes. 

These include the Paoay Weavers of Ilocos Norte supported by Mariano Marcos State University (MMSU); the Hanunuo Mangyan of Occidental Mindoro supported by the Awati Ti Kape Community Development Program; the Baraclayan Weavers Association of Iloilo; the Patnongon Multipurpose Cooperative and Bagtason Loom Weavers Association of Antique; and the Yakan by Oriental Weaves of Zamboanga supported by MMSU.

Iyog explained: “Every weave is a community’s cultural fingerprint with a story to tell, just as every destination has a unique offering and experience. We encourage every Juan to scan the QR Flight Codes to explore more of the Philippines and learn about our rich culture and heritage.”
