the experience of Patrick Richards, chief commercial officer for combined buying and distribution at Cox & Kings, the Indian travel group with operations in 25 countries. His 30 years in the business includes seven years as chairman of the European Tour Operators Association (ETOA), the trade body for the European inbound sector.


He left ETOA in 2014 but remains a board director, giving him insight into how Brexit is not only impacting organisations such as Visit Britain but also changing the overall European travel landscape. Elsewhere, the airline industry is


more exposed than most to economic fluctuations, and Brexit has led to a


degree of global uncertainty. Andrew Swaffield is chief executive


officer for Monarch Group. His analysis of Brexit’s impact on UK outbound will be from the global airline industry’s perspective, as well as any specific changes he foresees to how a UK- based international airline will operate in a post-Brexit environment. Similarly, inbound will also be


affected by potential changes in the relationship between the UK and the world’s other aviation authorities. The session also features analysis


from Euromonitor International’s head of travel Caroline Bremner. The research group has looked at visitor numbers for arrivals in to and out of the UK before and after Brexit.
