Simon Press, Exhibition Director, WTM London, said: “To some extent, the industry so far has dodged the Brexit bullet because the Covid crisis overshadowed and dominated what would have been the first peak holiday season of the Brexit era.
“But as Covid restrictions start to ease, Brexit-related concerns around visas, financial protections, security, duty-free allowances, health cover and so on will come to the fore once more. These changes will need to be considered – and applied – in the context of the post-Covid travel landscape.
“The industry needs to get ready for Brexit again, in terms of not only our own business operations but also how we let customers know about the new requirements. WTM London helped businesses prepare the first time around and will continue to offer insights and education as Brexit reasserts itself into the travel conversation.”
