Are you obsessed with travel? You're not alone.
In 2024, many of us are hungry for more experiences to make up for the adventures lost to COVID-19 and the surreal disruption of virus-related travel restrictions.
Travel industry leaders report that the cost of living crisis has not dampened appetite. “Our members are seeing great opportunity and great growth,” said Julia Lo Buesaid, CEO of Advantage Travel Partnership. She said: “It is true that the numbers are effectively back to pre-pandemic levels.”
And Paul Charles, chief executive of PC Agency and former communications director for Virgin Atlantic and Eurostar, predicts: “It will undoubtedly be the busiest summer on record.”
In this virtual event,independent person's award-winning travel correspondent Simon Calder and global travel editor Annabelle Grossman appear live from the studio with Ben Parker, deputy travel editor, to discuss how demand and prices will rise in 2024. We'll help you navigate the best summer holiday deals inside.
This trio has the best tips, tricks, and deals for heading out this summer.
The issue also revolved around how best to avoid getting caught up in travel disruptions, following last summer's disruptions to air traffic control, mass cancellations by major airlines, and large-scale disruptions at airports due to industrial action. We also plan to work on this.
As always, there are no travel-related questions. You can ask the team anything from how to get the best deal on flights and where to find the summer sun to last-minute deals.
The event will be held on Zoom and will last one hour. It will be held on Tuesday 16th April and starts at 6:30pm BST.
Once you register, you will be able to ask questions to the panel. You can also post your questions in the comments section of this article.
