Episode Notes Disney has unveiled expansion plans for its parks, cruise line and digital platforms, writes Travel Experiences Reporter Jesse Chase-Lubitz.  Disney announced it will debut four new cruise ships between 2027 and 2031, an expansion that will increase its cruise line fleet to 13 ships. Meanwhile, the Disneyland Resort in California will feature a water-based Avatar attraction and Disney's Animal Kingdom in Florida will be home to Indiana Jones and Encanto-themed attractions.   In addition, Disney is working with Epic Games to incorporate its characters into digital environments linked to the popular online game Fortnite.  Next, India's outbound travel market is projected to reach $55.4 billion by 2034. And the country's clout in the global travel industry is expected to continue growing, writes Asia Editor Peden Doma Bhutia. Several travel executives addressed India's role in global tourism during recent earnings calls. Accor CEO Sebastien Bazin said the number of Indian outbound travelers could double in the near future, which would have a big impact on Southeast Asia and Middle East hotel markets. And Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky said Airbnb is a crucial market, with the company seeing a 30% increase in nights booked in 2023 from the previous year.  Finally, the three largest U.S.-based sellers of vacation ownership, or timeshares, have reported a pullback in consumer spending behavior, writes Senior Hospitality Editor Sean O'Neill.  Executives at Hilton Grand Vacations, Marriott Vacations Worldwide and Wyndham Destinations said they noticed an increased consumer hesitancy to buy timeshares, particularly for new buyers in the bottom-third of income. O'Neill notes the pullback follows a high level of demand. The sector saw sales volume hit $11 billion last year, marking a full recovery from pre-Covid levels.  Where will growth come from? “Global” was the most-used word by timeshare executives in recent earnings calls. Marriott Vacations Worldwide is planning a new resort in Thailand. Hilton Grand Vacations sees opportunities in boosting its sales of units to Japanese buyers. And Travel and Leisure Co. saw its international tour flow jump over 50% in the second quarter.

The Hilton Grand Vacations earnings call, held on Thursday, February 29th, 2024, featured CEO Mark Wang's statement that they concluded the year favorably: “We closed out the year on a positive note, with a solid margin performance enabling us to deliver annual adjusted EBITDA slightly ahead of our revised guidance.” This conversation with investors gave substantial insight into Hilton Grand Vacations' financial performance, consumer trends, and potential for future growth. Financially, the vacation timeshare company's Q4 report aligned well with expectations, showing an increase in non-GAAP profit compared to the previous year. However, the reported negative free cash flow might potentially point to liquidity concerns and future risks of cash burn as noted during the call. One of the major contributors to Hilton Grand Vacations' success as stated in the earnings call is their focus on providing timeshare vacation offerings via club membership programs and resorts. Effectively leveraging these offerings for revenue, and achieving a growth in their membership base, has arguably led to a stronger financial profile and market performance for the company. From the earnings call, it was discerned that consumer trends are tilting towards experiential purchases. Consequently, Hilton Grand Vacations has experienced increased demand for its timeshare vacations. Additionally, as noted by the company, the rise of online platforms and alternative accommodation trends have proven advantageous, driving further demand for Hilton Grand Vacations' services. Despite a relatively strong financial position, the details regarding Hilton Grand Vacations' future investment strategies were not disclosed during this call. For stakeholders, understanding the company's strategic direction as acknowledged by the executives is crucial in evaluating Hilton Grand Vacations' growth potential and competitive positioning. The absence of such information presents a challenge in assessing the company's sustainability in the long run and their likelihood of continued success. Conclusively, based on the information provided in the earnings call, Hilton Grand Vacations seems to have consistently capitalized on consumer trends and leveraged its timeshare offerings in the market effectively. However, their undisclosed future investment and strategic plans limit our understanding and full assessment of the company's growth potential and prospects. A more comprehensive insight into Hilton Grand Vacations' future strategies and plans would allow for a more detailed analysis of the company's performance and potential. Irrespective, stakeholders should remain cognizant of the broader market trends and potential risks when considering future growth prospects.

Timeshare operator rivals Hilton Grand Vacations, Marriott Vacations Worldwide and Travel and Leisure Company have all reported financial results recently. Senior Hospitality Editor Sean O'Neill delves into those reports to search for broader trends in the segment.  HGV executives said they've seen more consumers hesitant to agree to deals in part because of inflation. However, O'Neill notes that HGV has actually had to deal with more demand than the group can efficiently handle. Meanwhile, both Travel and Leisure and Marriott Vacations have seen business boom, with each company generating at least $3.5 billion in net revenue last year. Next, Airlines Editor Gordon Smith lists three takeaways from Air France-KLM Group's full-year results. Smith notes geopolitical issues in the Middle East and Africa have hurt the supergroup's profitability. KLM has yet to resume service to Israel. Meanwhile, instability in several West African countries has impacted Air France's bottom line. However, group CEO Ben Smith said Air France might see a slight bump in the amount it earns from each passenger flown during this year's Paris Olympics.  Ben Smith added that the surge in premium leisure travel could make up for any weakness in business travel.  Finally, Visit California is launching its first tourism campaign in a decade as part of the state's efforts to reintroduce itself to travelers, writes Global Tourism Reporter Dawit Habtemariam. The roughly $33 million campaign — titled “The Ultimate Playground” — is looking to remind travelers about the Golden State's abundance of activities. Habtemariam notes Visit California hadn't been able to market itself extensively during the pandemic, when the state's image took a hit due to widespread coverage of issues such as urban crime and wildfires.

Episode Notes Airbnb has seen its listing numbers tumble in New York City due to a regulatory crackdown. But the short-term rental giant believes boutique hotels can help fill the gap, reports Executive Editor Dennis Schaal.  Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky said during the company's recent earnings call that adding boutique hotels to its New York City inventory was an opportunity given the decline in short-term rental listings for homes. He noted that boutique hotels are already listed on HotelTonight, the app Airbnb acquired in 2019. However, despite the possible boutique hotel push, Chesky said Airbnb's core business will always be houses.  Next, timeshare company Hilton Grand Vacations has offered to buy Bluegreen Vacations in a deal that could be worth $1.5 billion, reports Senior Hospitality Editor Sean O'Neill.  Hilton Grand Vacations will offer $75 a share in an all-cash transaction. O'Neill reports Hilton Grand Vacations, which was spun off from Hilton in 2017, is looking to strengthen its position in the vacation ownership and experiences sector. Hilton Grand Vacations runs resorts primarily in the U.S., Europe and the Asia-Pacific region. Finally, Egypt was on track for a record tourism year in 2023. But it's seen rising cancellations recently from American tourists due to the Israel-Hamas war, writes Global Tourism Reporter Dawit Habtemariam.  Habtemarian reports that Egypt had welcomed roughly 10 million tourists in the first eight months of this year. However, travel companies that take American travelers to Egypt have reported a surge of recent cancellations. Kelly Torrens, an executive at Kensington Tours, said the current season will be lost for most tour operators working with the U.S. market. Although some tour operators are optimistic travel to Egypt will increase in 2024, Torrens acknowledged that bookings for Egypt trips next year are low compared to previous years.

He currently works full time for the federal government as an IT training specialist and he teaches as an adjunct professor in the college of business and technology and also teaches people how to travel through his Tricks to Travel course and Facebook group.

This is where Mark gained the bug for wanting to eventually live and work in the US.Mark is an advocate of Steven Covey's "7 Habits of Highly Effective People" which advocates starting with the end in mind.Mark is another example of someone who went to college not knowing what he wanted to do with his career.
