Corridors: Political pawn
Story: Canaries chaos warning with ‘devastating’ removal of travel corridor Richard Slater: Doris [sic] can’t get a deal so this is his idea of playing hard ball. Never mind who gets in his way. It should ease; they are just using [travel corridors] as a political pawn with the Brexit thing.

travelweekly.co.uk @travelweekly travelweeklyuk @travelweeklyuk 17 DECEMBER 2020 27 Grants: Seems I’m a ‘fraud risk’
Story: Agents in Surrey blast ‘inconsistent and unfair’ government grants scheme Rob Haynes: I have zero income from my business and still don’t qualify for a penny of help. Apparently, as a director of a limited company, I’m considered a ‘fraud risk’, my MP told me. Maybe I could sue her for slander to make myself a few quid till things pick up.
The best of your letters, comments and social media this week Brexit: Holidays sure to survive Canaries: Total confusion
Story: Beware ‘sting in tail’ of no deal, industry warned Hasn’t the industry been flying into non-EU countries for decades and also employing people in those countries? It can’t be rocket science. The EU are not going to jeopardise their holiday industry and we aren’t going to stop selling holidays. But that won’t stop those with a vested interest in making money out of the situation adding fuel to the fire. ChrisJ
Miles Morgan @MMTMan Miles Morgan Travel It’s been an awful year for travel but we still celebrated Team MMT-style at a fab Zoom Christmas Party! 2020 has only confirmed I have every right to be a super-proud boss of an amazing bunch of people.
Story: Agents question blanket approach to Canary Islands corridor One arm of government says one thing, another arm says something else – leaving the holidaying public and the travel trade in total confusion. I am on my hobby horse again: if ever there were a case for having a standalone minster of tourism, this is it. Patrick Doyle
Abta @ABTAtravel From January 2021 you will not be able to use your existing pet passport to take your pet into the EU and pet travel requirements will change. Check for further advice or contact your vet at least four months before you travel.
