Travel Trends in 2021: The SUITCASE Guide ft. Olivia Lopez

It’s here. The big one. The SUITCASE guide to travel 2021 has
landed.


We’ve been itching to share with you the trips our travel editors
are planning, the hotel openings on our radar and the travel
trends on the horizon. 

Chatting about workations and carbon-neutral holidays,
seaside-town revivals and a Hawaiian island that’s undergoing
creative regeneration, India and Fleur share insider intel on the
next big trips to plan. They’ll also be talking (read: arguing)
about the next wave of hotel openings and why Southend-on-Sea is
the new Shoreditch. 

We also catch up with travel influencer, content creator and
podcast host Olivia Lopez to get the lowdown on the trips she’s
taking, the places she’s revisiting and how her travel philosophy
is changing.


Race you to departures...
