Coronavirus has become a daily consideration for agents up and down the country – but is it impacting sales?

David Speakman discusses the importance of trust

Several agents have told TTG this week answering clients’ questions about the infection has become a routine part of the booking process.

Queries range from what the impact of a change of Foreign Office travel advice will mean for their bookings, to whether it’s possible to catch the infection on an aircraft.

It comes after the government on Tuesday (3 March) published its coronavirus action plan, offering a full guide to what the impact of the infection could be on the UK.

The FCO, meanwhile, continues to only advise against travel to mainland China, two cities in South Korea and several towns in northern Italy.
