Australian cruise passengers are increasingly seeking out European summer sun, with a 60% year on year increase in winter sailings in the Mediterranean – could this become the new peak season? MSC Cruises Australia Managing Director, Lisa Teiotu joined fellow industry leaders to discuss current trends and forecasts, at Travel Daily’s Travel24 conference in Sydney, ‘Charting Tomorrow’s Travel Landscape’. Key discussions during Lisa’s panel ‘Riding the Wave of Ocean Cruising’ included the growth of multi-generational travel, the lower age of cruise passengers, desire for a more interactive travel experience and environmental issues the industry is working to overcome. Congratulations to Travel Daily for their inaugural conference, which shows how truly global the passion for cruising is. #MSCCruises #TravelDaily
