Day 1

Augmented and Virtual Reality is moving from a dream to an actual reality in the travel industry, as a variety of agents, hotel chains and airlines experiment with new immersive experiences to inspire and persuade potential travelers. But even as consumers and marketers get excited, many are asking if VR is just the latest form of marketing hype or a legitimate business tool. What best practices are emerging to guide successful VR campaigns, and how are travel marketers approaching the technology as interest grows?

Day 2

If content marketing is all about storytelling, then “travel” should be about the easiest vertical to storytell around. That is, unless, you have every other destination, hotel, and airline telling the same story. Content may still be king, but context is definitely the queen. Watch industry stalwarts discuss the content strategies that will gain traction with travel brands in 2019.
