The Duke of Sussex , who is the company's founder, made a virtual appearance at the meeting from his home in Montecito, California , where he told bosses 'communities are the beating heart of travel'.
Prince Harry has made a surprise appearance by video link at the annual general meeting of eco-tourism firm Travalyst.
Harry's address comes as a surprise after rumours circulated last year that the Prince had relinquished his role with Travalyst after the company announced it had entered an 'incredibly exciting' era with no mention of the royal. Advertisement Like his father King Charles , who has spoken out for more than 50 years on issues such as sustainability and climate change, Harry has also been a vocal champion of environmental causes.
Harry flew to the Netherlands on a commercial plane for the launch event in Amsterdam, having spent three years working on the initiative, which was founded along with brands including Booking.com, Skyscanner, Tripadvisor, Trip.com and Visa. In the same year of Travalyst's launch Harry and Meghan faced intense criticism after reportedly taking four private jet journeys in 11 days
In July that year, Harry made an opening speech at a virtual global summit for Travalyst, urging the travel industry to 'build back better' after the pandemic.
