Each year World Travel Holdings has a national conference for all Cruises Inc., CruiseOne, and Dream Vacations travel professionals. Last year our conference was held virtually due to Covid-19. It was to have taken place on the brand-new Celebrity Apex, but the ship was grounded like the rest of the cruise industry.
Finally we are all back together in person for our annual event. We are still holding it aboard Celebrity Apex which has just come over from Europe to begin her Caribbean season out of Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

Follow along on our social media platforms for an inside look at the ship and how the crew of Celebrity Apex hosts their largest group to date. We have over 800 people in attendance making up 45% of the ship's capacity on this sailing.
Tonight we will be kicking things off with a preconference cocktail party at Le Méridien Dania Beach at Fort Lauderdale Airport
. Tomorrow morning we will take a shuttle to the pier and board our ship for the next 7 days.
#2021TogetherConference
The theme for this year's conference is Together. What a fitting theme since this is the first time in over 18 months that we are able to meet face to face with each other. Normally we'd also have had regional conferences in addition to our national event. As travel professionals, we are always continuing our education on the products we sell, destinations, and other industry knowledge. Being together gives us the opportunity to network with our peers as well as others in the industry from our various travel partners.
We flew into Fort Lauderdale this morning and it's already great to see our friends in the industry, shake hands and give hugs to each other. This will be an emotional week for all of us. We are thrilled to be sharing it with you, our loyal readers and new followers.
