The Hidden Goldmine: Opportunities & Challenges Reshaping the Market

The charter industry is facing a new wave of travelers whose expectations differ from traditional sailors. From all-inclusive experiences to comparisons with hotels and short-term rentals, charter companies must rethink how they package and deliver their services. Balancing exclusivity, affordability, fleet renewal, and workforce development has never been more important. Join our expert panel as industry leaders explore how charter businesses can stay relevant, competitive, and profitable.

We’ll dive into: 

  • The evolving customer mix: tourists vs. sailors - and how to serve both effectively
  • The rise of all-inclusive packages and whether they are the future of chartering
  • Is chartering now comparable to hotels and Airbnb, and are we competing for the same customers?
  • Affordability vs. exclusivity - how to offer value without lowering standards
  • The growing pressure for rapid fleet renewal - is it realistic, and how can businesses achieve it sustainably?
  • Setting industry-wide chartering standards - do we need a rating or “star” system?

Jump into a discussion about what today’s customers truly want and how the charter industry can evolve to meet expectations without compromising its identity.
