COVID-19: Business Travel Association Warning

The Business Travel Association have warned that the 14-day quarantine measures could be putting jobs at risk

The Business Travel Association have warned that the 14-day quarantine measures could be putting jobs across the travel industry at risk.

Clive Wratten, CEO of the Business Travel Association, said: “If we leave it until the end of June before getting the first travel corridor in place, be it with Italy, Spain or Portugal, many jobs across the travel industry are at risk of being lost forever.

“Quarantine crushes the innovation and dynamism that the Home Secretary applauded today. At this desperately difficult time for our industry, she offered no hope to the millions employed across the travel industry and its supply chains.

“All of the country specific criteria required for the implementation of a travel corridor must be published immediately. There must be transparency about why these travel corridors are being delayed.”
