David Burling, CEO markets and airlines, said a new strategy will be announced within “weeks or months”, and will include investment in local communities in its destinations.

“We’re looking at how we can help [the supply chain] develop more sustainable business models, reusing and recycling as much as possible,” he told delegates at WTM London this week.

“We’ve got to be really ambitious with this, to help those destinations get to net zero [on emissions targets] more quickly than overall targets,” he added.
