LGBTQ+ Travel Today: challenges and opportunities
IGLTA International Gay and Lesbian Travel Association Chairman Of The Board Of Directors Felipe Cardenas speaks about the challenges and opportunities for the tourism industry when tapping into the LGBTQ+ clientele to build a safe and inclusive travel experience for all.
Across the tourism industry today we often speak about embracing a more inclusive and diverse approach and mindset. But what does it exactly mean? How do we practically develop a more ‘inclusive’ company culture and what are the benefits of this approach?
The travellers profile is growing more and more complex by the day, the tourism industry operators have come to understand and even enhance a more gender neutral approach to their customers but a lot more remains to be done and the challenge is that many tourism operators do not quite know how to tackle this social change, which will inevitably have an impact on the future of their business.
- WHY LGBTQ+ travel is crucial to building an inclusive future of travel
- HOW you can get on board, put your destination on the map and learn what are the direct financial benefits of tapping into this social movement and
- WHAT can you do to champion change across your company culture
