The panel will also feature a short question and answer session with the audience.

Moderated by Bruce Tschampel, vice president of hotel operations at Lindblad Expeditions, other cruise lines and key industry purchasing groups joining the panel will include CMI Leisure, Lindblad, Oceania, Regent, The Apollo Group, Windstar, Virgin Voyages and The World-Residences at Sea.
