97% Full

Hi there,   I’ll keep this short, because there isn’t much time and there isn’t much room. Skift Global Forum opens Tuesday, September 22, at the North Javits Center in New York. As of this morning, the room is 97% full.   Here’s who is on stage: the CEOs of Airbnb, Uber, Booking Holdings, Expedia Group, Hilton, Accor, Hyatt, and Qatar Airways Group. Bret Taylor, chairman of OpenAI. Ken Chenault. Christine Duffy of Carnival. More than 50 leaders, one agenda: what is actually driving travel forward as AI rewrites how people search, book, and decide.   Last year, about a thousand executives came from 590 companies and 40 countries, with 76% at director level or above. This year is bigger, and nearly sold out.   If you’ve been waiting, this weekend is your last chance.   Reserve your seat: https://my.skift.com/event/skift-global-forum-2026/?promo=SGF2026FINAL   See you in New York.   Rafat Founder & CEO, Skift     Skift, 35 W 31st St., Frnt 1, New York, NY 10001, USA Manage preferences
