It’s easy to think of a change of government as a seismic moment, but after six changes of prime minister since 2010 – as many as there were in the 30 preceding years – travel has become, if not wholly adept, but certainly accustomed to navigating an ever-changing political landscape.
Abta chief executive Mark Tanzer is certainly unfazed; he has seen eight PMs come and go during his tenure. And while the eighth, Keir Starmer, leads Labour back to power, he is used to taking on the myriad challenges travel must face down within new political parameters, both here in the UK and overseas.
