Advantage Travel Partnership chief executive Julia Lo Bue-Said told a Travel Technology Initiative (TTI) webinar on Thursday (17 June) the industry was in a “really dark place”, but could use its anger over current government policy constructively by taking part in events such as the Travel Day of Action on 23 June.
Lo Bue-Said said the industry’s lobbying of MPs was already “seeing some momentum” with more politicians now “positively supporting travel”.
She also noted the number of Conservative MPs who voted against the government’s decision to delay the final unlocking of Covid-19 restrictions until 19 July.
