🌴 GMBHA × Expedia Group | Strategic Revenue & Growth
What’s ahead for Miami’s upscale and full-service hotels in 2027? On October 8, GMBHA, in collaboration with Expedia Group, brought hospitality leaders together at Four Seasons Hotel Miami for an insightful discussion on strategic revenue growth, premium guest experiences, and stronger destination storytelling.
Moderated by Peggy Benua, the panel featured Francisco Scarpitto of Expedia Group B2B, Harry Carr of Davidson Hospitality Group, David Whitaker of the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau, and Mary Rogers of Turnberry.
The conversation explored strategies for maximizing revenue through curated packages, room upgrades, a balanced business mix, and informed distribution strategies—all while preserving rate integrity and strengthening Miami’s competitive position.
A special thank you to Haytham Said, General Manager of Four Seasons Hotel Miami, for hosting this important industry gathering, as well as to Expedia Group, our panelists, and all the hotel leaders who joined us for this valuable conversation.
