This week’s epsiode of Travel Today with Peter Greenberg comes from the Kimpton Fitzroy in London, a legendary hotel (and architectural showpiece) that most Americans don’t know about. Simon Calder, Travel Editor for The Independent, discusses the collapse of the famous Thomas Cook travel agency and its global impact on the tourism industry. Caroline Bremner, Head of Travel and Tourism Research at Euromonitor International, with her 2019-2020 forecast, and a few surprises as we enter the election cycle in the U.S. And in our continuing series of conversations with travel industry leaders, we talk with two heavy hitters: Keith Barr, CEO of InterContinental Hotels, on what travelers really expect from hotels — and the current mega acquisition boom among big hotel brands. There’s all this and more as Eye on Travel broadcasts from the Kimpton Fitzroy in London.
