In the context of its recovery initiative, WTTC will work with Members, governments and health experts to design new operational & health protocols and protocols to support the sector’s recovery.

Specifically, WTTC will create short protocol documents for at least eight industries within Travel & Tourism so as to align the private sector behind common standards to ensure the safety of its workforce and of travellers are the sector shifts to a new normal. The proposed initial industries within Travel & Tourism are:

• Hospitality

• Outdoor Retail

• Aviation

• Airports

• Cruise

• Tour Operators

• Convention Centres and MICE

• Car Rental

• Insurance

• Short Term Rental

• Insurance

This work will take a collaborative approach and build on the efforts underway by international organisations and industry associations in Travel & Tourism and our Members. WTTC will collaborate with governments and health experts whilst ensuring that the needs of the private sector are considered and integrated within public policies.
