In this episode of Karryon's Luxury Unpacked, join host Fiona Dalton as we board one of the world’s most iconic rail experiences to explore the renaissance of luxury rail Alicia Triggs, Executive General Manager at Journey Beyond.

Explore how Australia’s legendary trains like The Ghan, Indian Pacific, and Great Southern are capturing the hearts of a new generation of luxury travellers.

Unpack the shift toward slow, immersive travel; the design of luxurious onboard and off-train experiences; and what makes rail journeys such a uniquely emotive way to explore Australia.

With demand for global luxury rail up 158% and The Ghan ranked among the world’s top five luxury trains, this conversation celebrates a category whose moment has truly arrived.
