Post by COLUMBUS Reisen

When an industry forum starts with boarding at the shipyard, you know it will be anything but ordinary. We look back on two inspiring days at the TRAVELStar Forum 2026 – held on board a ship for the very first time. One of the highlights was the exclusive opportunity to experience the new Mein Schiff Flow by TUI Cruises before her official entry into service. Boarding directly at the shipyard in Monfalcone was a truly memorable moment. From there, we sailed towards Trieste, where the christening of Mein Schiff Flow will take place on 20 June. Beyond the ship experience itself, the forum was all about meaningful exchange with industry colleagues and insightful partner workshops. COLUMBUS Reisen was represented by around 20 colleagues on board, and we are taking home valuable impressions, ideas and fresh perspectives. Thank you to TRAVELStar and TUI Cruises for the excellent organisation and this special experience at sea.
