The Conference sessions are being developed by industry expert, James Shillinglaw, editor in chief and founder of Insider Travel Report.
“Travel + Leisure is one of the most influential brands in travel and the International Travel Show comes at a time when the world is eager to travel like at no other time in recent history.
