Marriott, despite a recent 16% cut in corporate staffing, reported record growth last year, and CEO Anthony Capuano emphasized his commitment to serving employees, guests, and owners while working to clarify the company’s brand portfolio and expand into unconventional hospitality offerings like safari experiences and a yacht collection. Tripadvisor has recently laid off over 150 employees and contractors, impacting teams focused on trip planning, reviews, and experiences, though sister brands such as Viator and TheFork remain unaffected. European airline groups, organized under Destination 2050, are calling on the EU to provide stronger support for sustainability initiatives, including the development of sustainable aviation fuel and recognition of aviation as a challenging sector for emission reductions.
