Conexo Travel is taking on new-to-travel applicants so long as they show sufficient passion for travel

Carruthers said travel agents now have to answer more customers questions than they previously did following the pandemic, and believes clients will start raising issues with the European Travel and Information Authorisation System (Etias) in the coming months.

 

Etias, an Esta-style visa waiver scheme, has been delayed for several years, and remains dependent on the EU launching its new Entry-Exit System, which will introduce biometric checks at EU borders.


“When we read in the trade press about people being denied boarding because their passports have expired, I tell my staff to look at their customers’ passports,” explained Carruthers.

 

“Next customers are going to be asking travel agents about is Etias. Travel agents can see the dangers ahead.”
