Celebrating Pride Month: The Connected Traveler at the Proud Conference in Los Angeles
In June, we celebrate the LGBTQIA+ community, and this year, The Connected Traveler was honored to attend the Proud Conference in Los Angeles. This prestigious event brought together travel suppliers and buyers from around the globe, all focused on the unique and vibrant world of travel.
A Global Gathering
At the Proud Conference, we connected with industry leaders, innovators, and visionaries dedicated to creating inclusive and welcoming travel experiences for all. Over two full days, we had the privilege of meeting representatives from resorts, cruise lines, airlines, hotels, railways, and destinations from every corner of the world. Our appointments were more than just meetings; they were the start of meaningful collaborations and partnerships that will shape the future of travel for all of The Connected Traveler family.
Building Bridges, Creating Futures
Our participation in the Proud Conference was not just about making connections for today but also about planning for tomorrow. We are excited to announce that we are already working on group tours for 2025, 2026, 2027, and 2028. The diverse contacts and relationships we established during the conference will play a pivotal role in crafting unforgettable travel experiences that celebrate diversity and inclusion.
The Importance of LGBTQIA+ Travel
Travel has the power to bring people together, to open minds, and to foster understanding and acceptance. For the LGBTQIA+ community, and really all of our Connected Traveler community, having safe, welcoming, and affirming travel options is essential. The Proud Conference highlighted the strides the travel industry is making in this regard, showcasing destinations and accommodations that prioritize inclusivity and celebrate the vibrant diversity of their guests.
Looking Ahead
As we look to the future, The Connected Traveler is committed to continuing our support for LGBTQIA+ travel and all travelers within our Connected Traveler family. We believe everyone deserves the chance to explore the world with confidence and pride, and we are dedicated to making that a reality through our upcoming group tours and travel offerings. Whether a member of the LGBTQIA+ community or not, our goal is to provide you a safe environment for you to experience something new—whether it is another land, cruise, cuisine, or culture.
June may be Pride Month, but our commitment to celebrating and supporting the LGBTQIA+ community and all travel communities extends throughout the year. We are excited for the journeys ahead and for the opportunity to create lasting memories for our travelers.
Stay tuned for more updates on our upcoming group tours and the incredible destinations we will explore together. Here's to a future of travel that is inclusive, diverse, and full of pride!
