Aito, which currently has just over 100 tour operators and 300 agents as members, has launched the Aito Financial Protection Scheme (AFPS), which protects customers booking package holidays that do not include flights, as well as single holiday components if required.
The move is the end of a three-year process that saw Aito secure permission from the government to become an “approved body” in November 2024. It is only the third travel association to acquire this status – Abta and Abtot are the other two.
