In a pioneering move for sustainable tourism, the Belize Tourism Board has become the first Destination Partner of the Sustainable Hospitality Alliance. This partnership, announced at ITB Berlin on March 5th, 2024, signifies Belize's commitment to advancing sustainable tourism practices and climate goals on a global scale. Belize, known for its dedication to preserving its natural and cultural heritage, including the globally renowned Belize Barrier Reef, is setting a precedent in the tourism industry for environmental and social responsibility.
The Sustainable Hospitality Alliance, which unites the hospitality sector to address global sustainability challenges, welcomes Belize as a trailblazer in the movement towards Net Positive Hospitality. The Destination Partner initiative aims to unify tourism organisations and authorities under a shared sustainability agenda, accelerating the industry's progress towards more sustainable and socially responsible practices.
As part of this groundbreaking partnership, Belize will actively participate in the inaugural 2024 World Travel Sustainability Awards in September. These awards aim to promote sustainability in the travel and tourism industry, highlighting innovative practices that contribute positively to the environment and local communities. Additionally, Belize will engage in various Environmental and Social Accelerator programs orchestrated by the Alliance, aimed at fostering sustainability across the hospitality sector within the country and sharing valuable insights and innovations with the global community.
Glenn Mandziuk, CEO of the Sustainable Hospitality Alliance, expressed enthusiasm about Belize joining as a Destination Partner, applauding the country's leadership in sustainability and responsible tourism. This collaboration not only showcases Belize's ongoing efforts in sustainable tourism development but also encourages other countries to follow suit in prioritising environmental stewardship and social impact in their tourism strategies.
Anthony Mahler, Minister of Tourism for Belize, reaffirmed the country's dedication to sustainable tourism, emphasising Belize's pride in being the first country to join the alliance. "We look forward to collaborating with the Sustainable Hospitality Alliance to drive positive change in the industry," Mahler stated, highlighting the mutual goal of achieving responsible travel and sustainable development.
This partnership between Belize and the Sustainable Hospitality Alliance marks a significant step forward in the global tourism industry's journey towards sustainability. By joining forces, Belize and the Alliance aim to create a more responsible, prosperous, and sustainable hospitality sector that benefits both the planet and its people.

Following the release of the visually striking trailer of the Bollywood entertainer Tu Meri Main Tera, curiosity around its breathtaking coastal backdrops has surged among Indian audiences. From turquoise waters to sun-drenched decks and high-energy yacht parties, the film’s sailing sequences have quickly become talking points online.
Yacht Week has now confirmed that these iconic scenes are not cinematic fantasy. The sailing lifestyle, vibrant social moments, and the much-talked-about circle raft parties featured in the trailer are part of its real-world experience and Indian travellers are officially invited to join.
Shot along Croatia’s stunning Adriatic coastline, the film showcases destinations such as Hvar, Vis, and Brač. These islands form the core of Yacht Week’s legendary Original Route, a carefully curated sailing journey that has long been popular with travellers from around the world.
For Indian audiences, this marks a chance to step beyond the screen and experience the lifestyle themselves. Yacht Week combines island-hopping, sailing, and immersive social experiences that closely echo the companionship, romance, and freedom portrayed in Tu Meri Main Tera.
The week-long journey mirrors the spirit of the film, taking guests along the same Adriatic waters, stopping at historic coastal towns and hidden bays. Days are spent soaking up the sun on deck, swimming in clear blue waters, and enjoying relaxed seaside meals. Evenings transform into open-air celebrations, culminating in the iconic Circle Raft, a signature Yacht Week moment where yachts connect in the middle of the sea to create a floating celebration, just as seen in the trailer.
Despite its global reputation, Yacht Week is positioning the experience as accessible for Indian millennials, couples, and groups of friends. Flexible instalment plans are also available, allowing guests to secure their spot with an initial deposit.
Commenting on the growing interest, Sahil Wahid, Director, Revel Travel — Official Travel Partner for India, said,
“We were thrilled to see Bollywood bring the energy of Yacht Week to the big screen with Tu Meri Main Tera. The trailer perfectly captures the spirit of friendship and freedom that defines our global community. We know Indian travelers have a deep love for travel and cinema, and we are ready to welcome them to live the journey they've fallen in love with on screen — real yachts, real people, and the real Adriatic summer.”
Bookings are now open for the upcoming summer season, offering Indian travellers the opportunity to experience the exact route, lifestyle, and energy that made the film’s sailing scenes go viral.

PRISM, the parent company of OYO, has announced a full refund policy for guests who could not check into their hotels between December 5 and 15, 2025 due to the widespread flight disruptions across India. With more than 1,400 flights cancelled over the weekend and multiple delays crossing four hours, thousands of travel plans were affected at the peak of the wedding and holiday season.
Under this policy, guests who booked through the OYO or CheckIn apps will receive automatic refunds once they submit valid proof of cancellation or delay. PRISM is also coordinating closely with its hotel partners to ensure the process is smooth and does not burden small and mid-sized properties that depend heavily on seasonal business.
Sharing more details, Varun Jain, Chief Operating Officer, PRISM Asia, said, “Our early estimates indicate that significant bookings across our hotel network may be affected by the ongoing flight disruptions. Coinciding with the peak wedding and holiday season, both leisure and business travel plans are being impacted. Our decision to offer full refunds is guided by empathy and a sense of responsibility to ensure our guests are not financially burdened by circumstances entirely beyond their control.”
PRISM today operates 13,000+ hotels under brands such as Townhouse, Sunday and Palette across India. To support the increased volume of queries, the group has also expanded its customer service team to help guests with refund requests and clarity on documentation. The company will continue to monitor the situation and extend the refund window if required.
Guests can access detailed policy information or raise requests through the CheckIn policy page or contact the dedicated support helpline.
