"This is my first foray into the travel sector, and I'm excited about the direction it's heading. The show has been helpful in terms of generating leads and allowing for reconnections. I've noticed a nice mix of suppliers and exhibitors, which has made for a more diverse range of products on display. We're anticipating that gut health will be a significant in-flight trend in the next few years, following closely behind retail."
