Millennials in Travel® The future of the travel industry! Summer 2022 Newsletter | |

Dear ,
Kicking off our very busy summers, the CHS Chapter of MIT enjoyed a warm Island Vibes evening with St. Kitts Tourism, Four Seasons Nevis/Punta Mita, Anguilla Tourism, Muse Collection, and Grand Case Beach Club, Hawks Cay, & Sands at Grace Bay. It was a great evening of networking and highlights from fabulous tropical destinations.
This month, we are also taking a beat to reflect on the results of our most recent survey to our members. We are listening here at MIT and would like to thank those members who responded indicating they see the most value in exclusive networking opportunities, and tools for professional development.
You can bank on seeing more of those in the months to come. We are also happy to report that most of you indicated an interest in more communication around sustainability initiatives within our organization and an annual conference. We will continue to communicate to our members using email as your preferred platform.
Keep an eye out for upcoming chapter development announcements including the relaunch event for our Phoenix/Scottsdale chapter, August 8th!
As usual, see below for our latest Exclusive Membership Benefits, FAM and networking opportunities, and upcoming events!

We Are Supporting Our Friends at ASTA Who Need Your Voice! Travel restrictions in the U.S. continue to plague travel plans and hurt local businesses. The House passed H.R. 3807, the Relief for Restaurants and Other Hard Hit Small Businesses Act, in April that would provide some financial relief to industries that were most adversely affected by COVID and would be the best possible way for the travel industry, including travel advisors, to get relief due to the disproportionate loss our industry as incurred over any other.
The travel industry was the first to be affected by the pandemic and by all measures will be the last to recover. Your Senators need to hear directly from you that cherry picking industries for relief is the wrong course of action. Please take two minutes out of your day to call or email your Senators through our grassroots portal HERE. | |
