TTG’s latest Travel Agent Tracker survey found 88% of agent respondents believe the latest changes will finally allow the industry to “start trading its way out of the Covid crisis in a meaningful way”.
Confidence has been boosted after agents and operators reported a “significant” increase in bookings since the government announcement on 17 September, including strong demand for autumn sun breaks and October half-term.
Figures from the Advantage Travel Partnership showed the consortium’s members enjoyed their best week since the start of the pandemic immediately after the latest rule changes, with 60% of bookings for 2021 departures.
