James got back from Sri Lanka at the end of October. Here he details why he thinks Sri Lanka is the ideal holiday choice right now.
Covid
The Covid-19 pandemic began in early 2020 and shook the world beyond belief.
Travel was one of the industries and freedoms to be the first hit and, to be frank, we are still reeling.
Here, ETG detail what has happened to us as a company (and our partners in Asia) during the pandemic. Our primary concern, as ever, has been for the welfare of our travellers: we describe our commitment to repatriating clients at the start of the crisis, as well as how we have been dealing with postponements and cancellations. We also focus on the future of travel, during and after the pandemic eases.
You’ll find out about our Travel Forecast events and what we and our clients think about the new normal. You’ll also discover what we’re doing to protect clients’ money and bring back confidence to the holiday booking process.
