The furlough scheme, officially known as the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme, came to an end on Thursday (30 September) leaving many in travel with uncertain futures amid predictions of another wave of redundancies.
Government figures published last month revealed nearly 27,000 travel agent and tour operator staff were still on furlough at the end of July.
Many agency staff have already agreed to continue working at current levels of reduced hours and pay, according to a survey by Advantage Travel Partnership.
