The Top 50 is 25 years old and we are celebrating with the fattest edition ever. This anniversary edition contains a lot of news. After years, the list of the 50 largest travel companies has a new top three. In addition, many newcomers, not only in the Top 50, but also in the sub-lists of largest tour operators and retailers.

\n<\/strong> It shows how dynamic the travel world is. Nothing is set in stone. Sometimes companies disappear, such as the bankrupt Vacancesoleil, which appears in the list one more time, but more often new companies pop up. It gives confidence for the future. And that’s what we look at in this edition in particular; the future of the travel industry, with a brief look at the past year. Not for nothing, then, is our theme “Back to the Future. Wondering how the travel industry will shape up over the next few years? This and more can be read in the new edition of TravMagazine’s special Top 50 issue<\/a>, which reaches subscribers this week and can also be read digitally. In the traditional Top 50 interview, we discuss the opportunities and challenges facing the travel industry over the next five years. We look ahead with Hilda van der Wel-Gonzalez (Avila Reizen), Frank Oostdam (ANVR), Joyce Fonteijn (Kupers Reisinfo), Nico Bleichrodt (Holland America Line), Hans Knottnerus (Sunny Cars), Don Kaspers (The Travel Club), Charles Verstegen (Transavia), Arjan Kastelein (Personal Touch Travel), Helen van Berkel (ATPI), Maaike van der Windt (de Jong Intra Vakanties). Discussion leader is publisher Tom van Apeldoorn (TRAVel Media). In the same issue, we speak with Arjan Kers (TUI) about his moment when he walked into TUI’s Rijswijk headquarters nine years ago and how the travel industry has changed in recent years. But also how he developed himself. Martin van Kranenburg once stood at the cradle of the D-reizen website, but is now one of the most in-demand conversion, personalization, – and neuromarketing specialists in the Netherlands. The author of the book “Writing for the Brain,” he knows better than anyone how to influence the unconscious brain on websites, in newsletters and on social media. He tells us what impact AI is going to have on the travel industry. Young talent is also featured. Thijs van Toorenenburg (Travel Talent 2023) gives us an insight into how his generation looks at the future of the travel industry and which topics will play a bigger role in the future. Read all the interviews, the figures, the expectations and more in the special Top 50 issue<\/a> that reaches TravMagazine subscribers this week and can also be read digitally. https:\/\/issuu.com\/trav_media\/docs\/top_50_2023?fr=xKAE9_zU1NQ
