Travel leaders map out their 2026 vision, talk about expanding global and local footprints

India’s premier travel consultancies and operators are shifting gears from recovery to aggressive expansion. From establishing offices in London and Dubai to deepening penetration into India's Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, industry stalwarts are redefining what it means to be a global travel partner.

Somya Deep by Somya Deep

Arjun Mukundd

Director Tourism, T&A Consulting 

At T&A Consulting, our vision for 2026 is to strengthen our position as a trusted market-entry and growth partner for international tourism boards, hotels, and attractions across high-potential markets. As India continues to emerge as one of the world’s most influential outbound travel markets, we remain focused on delivering integrated solutions that combine sales excellence, credible public relations, and emotionally intelligent marketing. In line with our growth, we have expanded our office presence into the Middle East and now represent Marina Bay Sands in the region.

Noel Saxena

CEO, Blink Brand Solutions

Our vision for 2026 is anchored in expansion, innovation, and deeper market engagement and impact. By 2026, Blink aims to significantly expand its portfolio of represented destinations, hotels, attractions, and such suppliers and tourism-related services across East Asia, ASEAN, the Middle East, Central Asia, Europe, and even long-haul markets. Beyond India, we will further strengthen our footprint as an international tourism marketing partner, supporting clients not only with India-focused mandates but also with multi-market, cross-border campaigns, including overseas roadshows, trade shows, and global events.

Pankaj Nagpal

Managing Director, Travstarz Global Group

2025 marked an important year for Travstarz as we expanded into Japan and Georgia. We also re-entered the cruise segment through a strategic partnership with Worldwide Cruise Associates, giving us direct access to major cruise lines worldwide. This strengthens our ability to serve charter, MICE, wedding and group travel segments. In 2025, we hosted over 14 trade networking events, and in 2026, we plan to organise 18 more workshops across key Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, strengthening engagement and deepening partnerships across India.

Mahendra Vakharia

Managing Director, Pathfinders Holidays

Our vision for 2026 is rooted in sustainable expansion and innovation. With a larger new office and a growing team, we are well positioned to scale responsibly. We continue to benefit from strong client referrals while steadily expanding our international presence. Investment in advanced travel technology remains a priority, helping us improve speed, efficiency and service delivery. Our focus is on building long-term relationships, strengthening operational excellence and offering thoughtfully designed travel experiences. As demand becomes more experience-driven and discerning, we aim to stay agile, responsive and customer-centric.

Mahi Singh

Founder & CEO, AndamanExperts.com

From an organisational perspective, by 2026, Andaman Experts aims to strengthen its position as a leading island tourism specialist for Andaman and Lakshadweep. Our focus is on sustainable growth and responsible destination management, with a targeted year-on-year growth of 35–40%. We plan to expand across key domestic and select international markets while introducing low-impact, high-quality island experiences. A major priority is strengthening our on-ground operations, with our team of over 20 local representatives expected to grow by at least 50%.

Mahendra Pratap Singh

Chairman, IATO Madhya Pradesh & Chhattisgarh Chapter

Looking at our organisational vision for 2026, my focus is on building a globally integrated, experience-driven travel brand that authentically reflects India’s richness and diversity. While our roots remain strong in Madhya Pradesh and Central India, our outlook is increasingly global. With existing outbound, inbound and experiential operations in Dubai, opening a London office by year-end is a key milestone that will strengthen our European presence and support inbound travel to India.
