ABTA will be holding the last round of regional business meetings for this year on Zoom.

The meetings start from 9 November and run through to 22 November.

During the meetings ABTA will provide an update on COVID, ATOL consultation and ABTA’s position on sustainability, particularly in light of the COP26 summit currently taking place in Glasgow.

Sustainability will also be the theme of a panel discussion and whether members are seeing an increase in interest from customers for sustainable travel arrangements.

Other matters to be discussed will be the Package Travel Regulations, bonding renewals, and ABTA’s Travel with Confidence campaign.

“As travel opens up with restrictions lifting in many of our most popular overseas destinations, we will have a great deal to talk about in the regional business meetings,” said Danny Waine, ABTA’s Head of Membership.

“Sustainability is increasingly taking centre stage and we will set out what the industry is doing to limit our impact on the planet and how ABTA can support members to develop a sustainability approach which is right for their business. 

“These informal, free-to-attend events help members to keep on top of the latest industry developments, policy updates and industry trends. Members will hear from ABTA’s team of experts who will also be on hand to field any questions or queries that members may have.”
