Women Leading Travel & Hospitality is proud to present its third annual report of top women executives in the travel and hospitality industry. In a constantly changing market landscape, the 2023 Top Women in Travel & Hospitality report features women leaders across the industry who have continuously showed resiliency, perseverance and innovation. We’re appreciative of Allianz Partners for sponsoring this year’s report.

Honorees were chosen based on several criteria, including their position within their organization, scope of responsibility within that position, career achievements, and involvement within the travel and hospitality industry. The women featured are leaders of various departments and/or teams within their organizations, including marketing, operations, diversity and inclusion, among others. A sampling of honorees include:

  • Noha Abdalla, Chief Marketing Officer, Choice Hotels
  • Jessica Kimbrough, Chief Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Officer, United Airlines
  • Isis Ruiz, Chief Growth Officer, Virgin Voyages
  • Eleanor Flagler Hardy, President and Co-Owner, The Society of International Railway Travelers
  • Jessica Shannon, Chief Experience Officer, Sandals Resorts
  • Alexandra Legend Siegel, Vice President and Global Head of DEI – Talent, Expedia

While as an industry we have much work ahead of us in regard to elevating more women into leadership roles, we’re also grateful to live at a time when we can fill this annual report with incredible people year after year.
