In 2001, two former airline employees, Nina Slawek and Suzanne Christie, launched Canada's first online travel industry publication. At that time, many wondered if travel agents would ever fully adopt the internet. Nina and Suzanne decided to invest their savings into Open Jaw, believing that agents would not only adopt this innovative platform but would also rely on it as their main source for news, product updates, and video training. Open Jaw provides a daily roundup of news specifically tailored for Canadian travel agents. With a distinctly Canadian flair, it features the only cartoon strip in the industry, spotlighting the spirited character Tina The Travel Agent. Additionally, Open Jaw is famous for its video newsmagazine, "The Pink Couch," which has gained recognition throughout the travel sectors in the U.S., Canada, and the Caribbean.

Whipping down the Malecón in a Barbie pink convertible 1955 Chevrolet, past people strolling along the seaside esplanade, Havana feels for a moment just like it did during my last visit just prior to the pandemic. But truthfully much has changed. Vintage car owner Julio Moret admits that business is slow when he agrees to take me to my hotel since he’s not busy doing city tours. Just 2.2 million people visited Cuba in 2024, down from 2.6 million the year before and 4.2 million in 2019.
