World Travel & Tourism Council has joined the Common Trust Network, which aims to help countries restart their economies as the world emerges from the Covid-19 pandemic.

The requirement for travellers to take a PCR test within two days of arriving in England is set to remain

The move by the WTTC is part of an extended partnership with the World Economic Forum, which will also promote the Safe and Seamless Traveller Programme that aims to increase the competitiveness and sustainability of the global travel and tourism industry.

Gloria Guevara, WTTC’s chief executive, said: “We believe that through our leadership and collective expertise, we will be better able to raise awareness on the importance of travel and tourism and drive forward strong research and initiatives for its sustainable development.”
