October 2022 Issue
Women in Travel
It’s been said “The future of travel is female.”
This month’s edition of Leisure Group Travel takes that to heart as we unveil our Women in Travel issue. This edition features a variety of female-focused pieces that showcase women: the most influential demographic in travel.
This issue highlights five industry-leading women who are changing the corporate landscape for the better. We also pay a visit to Maryland and explore how courageous female figures have shaped the Old Line State. LGT even traverses the Midwest in our Wonder Women story as we find historical attractions across the heartland that tells the tales of some of the most accomplished women in American history. LGT even has a story for adventurous female souls as we explore California’s many backpacking destinations where women can embark on mesmerizing retreats.
The travel industry is waking up to the economic power of women. Learn more about how women make the travel world go round in this month’s Leisure Group Travel.
