I really felt they too could benefit from their own radio station. It’s another communication channel and somewhere to combine business with some more light-hearted elements.” Lucy Huxley, editor-in-chief of

Travel.Radio and providing our leading industry news content throughout the week. “Throughout this crisis, we
have done all we can to inform and connect our readers, and it is clear that the team at
Travel.Radio shares that desire to support, inspire and entertain the travel trade as it faces its greatest challenge.”
