'Copy and paste job'

Speaking at Abta’s Travel Law seminar on Monday (9 May), Themis Advisory director Jo Kolatsis said flexibility "was here to stay", and stressed she felt people were booking closer to departure due to the additional flexibility businesses are offering.

Addressing delegates on the potential changes businesses may have to make to people’s trips owing to the pandemic, Kolatsis warned businesses that their terms and conditions needed to be watertight.
