The Meetings Show Asia Pacific marks a successful return to Singapore

The Meetings Show Asia Pacific made a successful return to Singapore for 2025, solidifying its reputation as a key anchor event for the meetings, incentives, conferences, and exhibitions (MICE) industry within Asia and the Pacific.  Building on the  momentum of its debut last year, this vibrant second run brought together  MICE professionals from in and around the region on 16th and 17th April at the Sands Expo and Convention Centre. The Meetings Show was made even more exciting by the presence of close to 300 dynamic exhibitors, a strong Hosted Buyer Programme, as well as a number of curated knowledge sessions that presented key insights regarding the industry. The event was held concurrently with the first-ever Business Travel Show Asia Pacific, another gathering that drew in professionals from the field of corporate travel, along with senior buyers and preeminent suppliers for a highly insightful conference. In total, the joint conventions welcomed 1,773 attendees from over 72 countries,  including 347 hosted buyers.  Exhibitors and buyers alike were enthusiastic about the high  quality of engagement and meaningful connections made throughout the show floor.  The 2025 edition of The Meetings Show recorded growth of around 35 percent over its debut year, reflecting  broader participation, richer programming, and deeper regional involvement. On enduring relevance and support Northstar Travel Group chief executive Jason Young remarked during the opening of the dual event: “For more than 80 years, our brands  have been the trusted voice of the travel and tourism industry. Our market-leading events and media products are relied upon by the most important professional audiences that drive the US$2  trillion travel market across the MICE, corporate and leisure segments. We truly embrace our role  as the champion of travel.”   Young added that the geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainties have made travel more important and more essential than ever before because it brings communities  together and makes business happen. He said: “That's why we are here: to bring communities together and to make business happen. We couldn't be more bullish and excited  about the opportunity that The Meetings Show Asia Pacific brings.”  Ong Huey Hong, assistant chief executive of the industry development group and chief sustainability officer of the Singapore Tourism Board, likewise expressed her enthusiasm over the event. She said: “It is with great pleasure and excitement that we get to witness not only  the growth of the second edition of The Meetings Show Asia Pacific, but also the inaugural launch of BTS APAC in  Singapore. The co-location of the two events will form an even stronger gateway to quality  connections and insightful sessions tailored to the meetings and corporate travel sectors.”  Ong further pointed out that Singapore aims to triple its MICE tourism receipts by 2040 despite the uncertainty regarding the global economy at present. She added: “It is too early to determine the impact on our business; in the meantime, we will continue working towards our target by building on our leadership position and unwavering commitment to excellence. We have a robust pipeline of events  leveraging the range of vibrant industries in Singapore, and will refresh our hardware and software  to support this growth.”

Namia River Retreat in Hoi An, received two nominations for the Travel + Leisure Luxury Awards Asia Pacific 2025. The luxury retreat is up for consideration in two categories, namely Hotel Spas and Upcountry Hotels.  This recognition highlights Namia's commitment to luxury and exceptional hospitality, offering a blend of cultural discovery and holistic wellness. Inclusive, elegant, exceptional Since it opened in December of last year, Namia River Retreat swiftly established itself as one of Asia’s most unique wellness destinations.  Nestled on a tranquil islet along the Thu Bon River, just a 15-minute bicycle ride from the UNESCO Heritage Town of Hoi An, the resort is a sanctuary where the rhythms of nature and the essence of Vietnamese culture come together, making it the perfect destination for an authentic and mindful escape. In just a short time, Namia has captured the attention of global travellers and media alike, being featured in a slew of global lifestyle, travel, and luxury publications including The New York Times, Wallpaper, Financial Review, Robb Report, LATTE, and Tatler Asia among others.  This nomination from Travel + Leisure further cements Namia's place among Asia Pacific's most distinguished hospitality experiences. A jewel in the Vietnamese countryside Namia's nomination in the Upcountry Hotels category reflects its unique location and cultural experience offerings.  The resort offers guests an escape into nature while paying homage to Hoi An's rich heritage and the vibrant fishing villages through its design.  Drawing inspiration from Hoi An's traditional fishermen's boats and countryside houses, Namia's 60 villas feature private pools, seamlessly blending with the natural surroundings and offering breathtaking views of either the verdant forest or the serene Thu Bon River.

Such programmes include: Two distinctive wellness pathways available under the wellness-inclusive offer (Mind & Body), tailored to guests' self-assessments or preferred goals during their stay; and treatments and prescriptions are designed in collaboration with local herbalists and traditional doctors. The herbal hammam experience, inspired by the Vietnamese herbal steam therapy “Xông Hơi” using herbs found in southern folk steaming remedies.

Asia Pacific airlines showed a19.9% year-on-year growth for Jan 2025

Preliminary January 2025 traffic figures released by the Association of Asia Pacific Airlines (AAPA) showed that international passenger markets enjoyed a robust start to the year, driven by a surge in leisure travel during the Lunar New Year festive period. The region’s carriers achieved a solid 19.9% year-on-year growth for the month, transporting a combined total of 35.2 million international passengers. Demand as measured in revenue passenger kilometres (RPK) increased by 22.5%, markedly surpassing the 17.4% year-on-year expansion in available seat capacity. Consequently, the average international passenger load factor rose by 3.5 percentage points, to an elevated 83.7% in January. Despite growing uncertainties in the broader trade environment, air cargo markets also sustained growth in the new year. Higher demand for consumer goods in anticipation of the festive season, resulted in a 4.7% year-on-year increase in international air cargo demand as measured in freight tonne kilometres (FTK), adding to the double-digit growth recorded in January 2024. Expansion in belly-hold space, drove a 10.9% year-on-year increase in offered freight capacity. Average international freight load factor dipped 3.3 percentage points to 55.2% for the month. Commenting on the results, Subhas Menon, AAPA Director General, said: “The year began on a positive note for Asia Pacific carriers, with both international air passenger and cargo markets posting encouraging growth, underpinned by the timing of the Lunar New Year holidays.” Menon added: “The relatively high load factors reflect strong demand but also ongoing capacity constraints, compounded by the grounding of aircraft due to engine issues and delays in aircraft deliveries. These challenges have contributed to an increase in expenditure on maintenance, aircraft leasing, and labour, while greater competition saw to lower yields and operating margins.” Looking ahead,  Menon concluded: “Growth prospects remain promising in the coming months, against a backdrop of steady expansion in global economic activity. However, ongoing geopolitical and trade tensions pose potential risks to both business sentiment and consumer demand in the months ahead. The region’s airlines are closely monitoring developments, whilst carefully managing costs to boost operating economics.”
