Meaningful Travel? Supporting Local Communities? Impact on Destinations?

Shayna Zand and Steph join forces with Cazavia Travel to host a special edition this week's Friday 15 to celebrate Earth Month. Cazavia’s host agency is Montecito Village Travel and you can check out their HAR profile HERE!  Also, we have a veritable barrage of questions this week, which you can read below, and then come and join us 12 pm CST for the podcast. 

Don't forget that you can submit questions and sign up for reminders for the F15 here!

1. How can travel advisors influence client decisions without being pushy—especially when sustainability isn’t already a priority for the traveler?

1. Can you share an example of how an advisor made a trip more meaningful or sustainable for a client, even if that wasn’t the client’s original goal?

1. What role do travel advisors play in supporting local communities and economies through the trips they plan?

1. What do you wish more people knew about the impact their travel decisions have on the destinations they visit?
