Travel minis may seem like a small luxury, but their impact on the planet is anything but tiny. Every year, billions of these single-use plastic bottles are produced, used, and discarded – contributing to a staggering waste problem. So why do they still exist?

She explores the hospitality industry’s reliance on them, the challenges of replacing them with sustainable alternatives, and whether luxury and sustainability can truly coexist.
