S1:E6 - (The Lost Episode) Talking "Ship" Cruise Planners Convention

In Season 1, Episode 6 of The Travel People, we're taking a trip back in time with what can only be described as The Lost Episode. Somewhere between packing for cruises, recording podcasts, and chasing the next adventure, this episode mysteriously disappeared... only to be discovered buried deep in the archives of our old YouTube channel. After a successful recovery mission, we figured it was finally time to give it a proper home on Spotify. This special feature takes you inside the Cruise Planners Convention, where we sat down with some of the incredible advisors who make this company unlike any other. From unforgettable travel stories to the friendships and support that define the CP Family, this episode is a celebration of the people who make Cruise Planners such an amazing place to belong. To everyone who shared a few minutes with us at the convention, thank you. We couldn't fit every conversation into one episode, but we hope this captures the energy, passion, and love for the travel industry that brings us all together. Sometimes the best adventures are the ones you almost forgot about. Welcome to The Lost Episode.
