Upcoming Webinar: Covid-19 and The Future of Travel

Travel will return, but not like you've ever seen it before. What can we expect the new normal to look like?

Despite the gloom and doom surrounding Covid-19, it’s only a matter of time before borders are reopened and travel once again becomes possible. Singapore just announced its intention to gradually reopen borders and allow transit passengers, and around the world we see countries like Iceland and Italy planning to do the same.

However, make no mistake- travel after Covid-19 will be nothing like it was before. With all the talk of “travel bubbles”, “green lanes”, and “immunity passports”, not to mention potential social distancing on planes and cabin crew decked out in full PPE, this won’t be travel as usual. 

So what can we expect the new normal to look like? Join me next Wednesday as I discuss the possible scenarios with David Flynn and Brendan Sobie.

Registration is free, and can be done through the link below.

The previous session we ran was oversubscribed, and although there was a Facebook Live stream for spillover, I understand the experience isn’t anything like being in Zoom. So I’ve gone ahead and upsized the webinar plan to 500 people, which should be more than enough.

For the best experience, please download the Zoom desktop or mobile app before the session begins. 

Look forward to welcoming you all and taking your questions!
