The aviation minister has urged the travel industry to get in touch, not just about the issues they would like changed, but also the positive elements of travel, “otherwise I might get rid of those things”, she warned.

Speaking at the Abta Travel Matters conference on Tuesday (6 December) in Westminster, Baroness Vere of Norbiton, minister for aviation, maritime and security, acknowledged “the thing I know about people in travel and transport is that they rarely agree.”

“But I’m always here for consultation,” she said. “And don’t just tell me what’s wrong with something. Tell me what you like about it too – think about the balance of what you’re saying. I’m always happy to meet people,” she added.
