Agents headed into December nervously anticipating the full impact of the emergence of the Omicron variant of Covid-19 on travel, despite a relatively stable and buoyant period for new sales and bookings.
The majority of agent respondents – 97% – to TTG’s latest Travel Agent Tracker survey, which covered trading in the two weeks to Friday 26 November, said they took new enquiries, down two percentage points (ppts) on the record level set two weeks earlier.
Nearly nine in 10 respondents (87%), meanwhile, said they took new bookings during the same period – down one ppt fortnight-on-fortnight and down six ppts on the record (93%) set in the two weeks to Friday 29 October.
