New Year, New Leap

Isn’t a New Year, like a new book in our life? Just pause for a moment and give it a thought. It’s a fresh year and we have blank pages just like a new book. If we want, we might not make the mistakes which we made in the previous years. Of course, we cannot change the past, but the beauty of a New Year is that we can start afresh.

So, what if we had some rough experiences while travelling in 2019, let bygones be bygones. Let’s pack our bags again, clean our favourite shoe and tie our hair and march on – just the same way we are always excited to go on a new trip! Likewise, year 2020 brings in a new chapter for Netpal Travel EZine.

We operated in B2B (business-to-business) space till now, but 2020 onwards, we merge with the bandwagon of B2C (business-to-consumer) to become B2B2C online travel publication. Today, travel agents play a huge role in arranging our holidays, but from now on our updates, help keep the consumers upbeat too! Netpal Travel will bring in more news from the entire tourism fragment across the world, including shopping, restaurants, music, cosmetics, electronics and so on.

The list is exhaustive and we will flood you with information – just the way you want it.

Moving on, in this issue, our LEAD story extensively discussed on – 2019 feedback and anticipation of 2020. Not far to seek the updates on how eco-friendly, sustainable tourism and slow travel gain extreme importance in 2020. How millennials are happily mixing business with leisure?

Don’t you miss – the interview of Ethiopian Airlines Group CEO Tewolde Gebre Mariam, recognized as ‘Airline Executive of the Year’ at the annual Global Aviation Awards for Excellence organized by Centre for Aviation (CAPA).

Move over hotels, home stays are in and ragingly popular. We just came back from a beautiful home stay in Udaipur. Read to know the details. If we are talking about staying, then how can food be far away? We do have a special section on restaurants, shopping and also on our remarkable visit to Sri Lanka.
