Thursday, 5 November, 2026

On today’s Skift Daily Briefing, Bailey Schulz, Skift’s Global Tourism Reporter, breaks down why the FTC’s surveillance pricing study puts airline fare-setting under a new microscope, why more passengers on short cruises doesn’t automatically mean better economics, and what BON Luxury Theme Park means for incentive planners weighing Mexico’s safety concerns.
