The Advantage Travel Partnership will hold a meeting in Westminster next month as part of its plans to develop a UK outbound travel forum.

Chief executive Julia Lo Bue-Said said the travel industry has "struggled" to get its "collective voice heard" by the government during the pandemic

Chief executive Julia Lo Bue-Said, who proposed the forum in December, said the meeting will discuss how the industry can move forward on the new initiative to increase and improve the sector’s lobbying of the UK government.

"Our lack of profile, specifically as an outbound sector, with the UK government over the last two years of the pandemic has showed us that we need to work considerably harder in making our sector known and understood with MPs and government officials, in order to influence decision making in the future," Lo Bue-Said added.
