Q&A: NextTrip COO Ian Sharpe Talks JOURNY TV Relaunch and the Future of FAST and Adventure Travel MediaTravel and adventure-focused FAST channel JOURNY TV relaunches this month with a new slate of global storytelling and a new level of commerce-ready brand integration, following the channel’s acquisition by tech-forward travel brand NextTrip in April. That’s why we acquired the JOURNY channel. For the past seven years, there hasn’t been a travel channel worthy of that name to deliver against that huge ad spend.

FAST Channels TV has just released its What to Expect from FAST in 2025 Trends Report, and Russell Foy, CEO of FAST Channels TV, outlines how FAST platforms can remain competitive in this rapidly developing streaming space.
