The CDC has changed its guidance on travel for Americans who are fully vaccinated, and more and more people are planning vacations. But they’re not just planning any trip: They’re taking bigger, longer, more expensive trips with upgrades and all the trimmings. Some are calling this “revenge travel.” How are people traveling with a vengeance?

In this episode, retail editor Jamie Biesiada and host Rebecca Tobin talk with Anne Scully, a longtime travel advisor who is now a partner of agent development at Embark Beyond. But you’re also hear part of our discussion from our cruise-focused chat with Vicki Freed of Royal Caribbean International and Alex Sharpe of Signature Travel Network, and from our ski-resort discussion with Rusty Gregory of Alterra and Natalie Ooi, who runs the ski management program at Colorado State University.

We hope you agree with our experts that travel – planning, anyway – is coming back with a vengeance.
