| | | In a series of trendcasts, we've interviewed travel insiders and analysts from Germany, China, and the USA about the current state of the global travel industry. Charuta Fadnis (Phocuswright) notes that the general trend is positive, and the recovery of the global travel industry is expected to stabilize in the summer of 2023. Lydia Li (ITB China) explains how a late opening of borders led to recovery, with domestic and international travel resuming and customized trips and technology taking the spotlight. Andreas Wulfes (Neusta Data Intelligence)expects moderate growth in bookings for the German travel market, with inflation significantly driving bookings despite price increases.
|
| | In the podcast episode "LGBTQ+ Tourism in Eastern Europe â How to Get Involved," learn how the travel industry can contribute more to LGBTQ+ tourism in Eastern Europe. Host Charlotte Lamp Davies (A Bright Approach) discusses with Pavel Subrt (East meets West) how the travel industry can engage in the discussion to ensure it not only acknowledges but also supports ongoing conversations about inclusion in tourism.

| | ENTRY INTO THE EU | ETIAS TIPS FROM TRAVEL PROFESSIONALS | If you're not from the European Union and hearing about Etias for the first time, pay attention:
The EU entry system Etias is starting next year. Travelers from 60 non-EU countries will need an electronic Etias authorization for visa-free entry into the Schengen area starting January 2024. Experts recommend timely preparation to avoid complications. This applies to countries like Canada, Israel, Japan, New Zealand, South Korea, Singapore, and the USA. The applications are straightforward but important. Without an Etias authorization, flight cancellations or rejections are possible. Travel agencies should also sensitize their customers in a timely manner.
Know Etias regulations and enter the EU smoothly to participate in ITB Berlin 2024!
