This issue also covers the recent TAFI Convention in Vietnam, which was widely recognised for delivering a powerful message on sustainability and responsible travel. Additionally, we take a deep dive into the 2025-26 Budget, analysing its impact on the travel sector, and explore a thought-provoking question: Is artificial intelligence—and its applications—a boon or a bane for humankind?
In addition, we shine spotlight on industry stalwarts, celebrating their invaluable contributions and insights. Our FAM reports this month transport you to fascinating destinations, including Saudi, and Moscow, providing firsthand experiences and fresh perspectives. A major highlight of this edition is our special feature on TTJ Konnect, our debut event in Delhi, which successfully brought together industry partners for meaningful networking and collaboration.

I approached them with a blank slate, letting their magic paint vivid strokes on the canvas of my mind.
