Every year Travel Weekly publishes its year in review, a cover story on the biggest travel stories of the year. Here on the Folo to talk about Year in Review 2023 with host Rebecca Tobin is news editor Johanna Jainchill, who assembles, manages and writes Year in Review, and editor in chief Arnie Weissmann.

During the discussion we examine how many of these many 2023 developments directly affected or were driven by travel sellers – specifically, NDC and the push to expand the ranks of travel advisors (hello, high demand). And we look at cruising’s comeback, airline mergers and JetBlue’s big year, the reach of war, Oceangate, space travel, what’s NOT on the list and how we pull this whole thing together.
