Abta halved its fees last year owing to the financial strain the Covid crisis placed on many members.
Target, Travel Agents Reform Group Engaged Together, on Wednesday (26 May) urged the association to do the same this year after 20% of Target’s 1,000 members said they would struggle to afford the fees at their proposed levels.
The group wrote to Abta chair Alistair Rowland and chief executive Mark Tanzer calling for "urgent action" to reduce the association’s subscription fees.
