ABTA statement and advice on the latest coronavirus travel restrictions

An ABTA spokesperson said:

“The latest restrictions on UK travellers entering some foreign countries shows the ongoing uncertainty around travel and the extremely difficult operating environment for UK travel businesses. Not only do the latest developments affect people’s ability to travel but also consumer confidence to plan and book future holidays. The Government must step in and provide tailored support for the travel sector – in recognition of the number of jobs at risk and the important role the UK travel industry will play in supporting the UK’s wider economic recovery. The Scottish Government has already pledged tailored support for the travel industry, the UK Government and other devolved nations must follow suit without delay."
