Inbound chief insists Trump re-election ‘won’t stop US travellers visiting UK’
Trump’s historic election victory this week prompted speculation about the impact the result would have on the global travel and tourism sector.
TTG spoke to several UK agents in the hours immediately following confirmation of the election result to assess and gauge the mood throughout the outbound travel sector.
However, speaking to TTG at WTM London, UKinbound chief executive Joss Croft played down the Republican candidate’s return to office, insisting the US would remain the UK’s top source market both in terms of volume and spend.
“The US is our most important market by an absolute country mile,” said Croft. “It’s not going to change, as there are common bonds there between the UK and the US. The UK is considered a safe destination for Americans so it doesn’t matter who the president is.”
