旅行顾问预计乌克兰新闻后会有更多的业务中断
经过丹尼尔·麦卡锡(Daniel McCarthy)/This week, the world braced as Russia's invasion of Ukraine made headlines everywhere in the world, picking up from COVID-19 as the biggest risk to the world's return to normalcy.
旅行顾问本周与TMR交谈说,他们已经接受,不可避免的是,旅行计划将受到危机的影响 -suppliers, including Viking Cruises, Globus, and othershave already responded by canceling itineraries in the area, and news of war in Eastern Europe could also increase fear amongst clients who finally felt safe traveling post-COVID.
现在的任务是放心客户,同时也准备进行更改并依靠供应商合作伙伴。
“我认为我们只需要真正依靠我们的全球合作伙伴。我想我们都知道事情必须改变,我们会随拳而奋斗,”安吉拉·皮尔森(Angela Pierson),TMR的MasterAdvisor第47集的客人华莱士·皮尔森(Wallace Pierson)的所有者在阿米莉亚岛(Amelia Island)说。
“基本上,它只是让我们的客户知道我们已经与所有高管人员进行了对话,并非常注重事物和变化将出于最大利益而进行。”
Deborah导演是SmartFlyer的旅行顾问,他还加入了TMR,担任MasterAdvisor 47的客人,并补充说,在某种程度上,大流行为大火提供了这么多危机管理中的许多顾问的审判,以及他们可以向他们学习的时期。
她说:“我觉得如果没有别的,库维德在学习许多情况都在不断发展的情况下是一个很好的练习,作为顾问的工作是我们的顾问,以及在人们可能到达任何地方的国家 /地区与我们的合作伙伴进行沟通。”“联络的工作是传达信息,以确保每个人都保持镇定和自信。”
董事补充说:“我们有这些情况,我们能做的最好的就是从中汲取并从中学习,而不是受到折磨。”“因此,学习并说‘在这种情况下很好,这就是我们的运作方式,这是有帮助的。’
Other advisors who joined TMR on Thursday also reflected a level of uncertainty, and an acceptance of changes to come.
“我对东欧发生的事情感到非常难过。我担心住在那里的人们。但是我有客户今年夏天前往罗马和阿姆斯特丹。南卡罗来纳州Cilla Travel的所有者Priscilla Holmes说:“必须保持警惕。”
Amy Cohen, owner of Cohen Travel, said that she has clients on a Baltic cruise to St. Petersburg in June and that there is concern over cancellations from clients, but the best strategy is to “take it a day at a time.”
“我们担心他们在六月的离开,但必须一次参加一天。这次旅行在2020年由于共同而被取消,两年后,我们正在处理这场世界危机。”她说。“对于居住在欧洲的人们,旅行,我们和我们的行业,在我们再次与客户一起工作和计划时,这非常令人担忧。”
Michelle Pate, from California’s Surf City Cruise and Travel, told attendees “I'm sad that on the heels of the pandemic finally letting up a bit we are now having quite serious concerns again with people going to Europe at this time because of this geopolitical situation in Eastern Europe.”
“And just because it's in Eastern Europe now doesn't mean it will stay put there without sliding into central and/or western Europe. So many aspects of tourism in Europe, from FIT to guided vacations to river cruising and beyond, are bound to be impacted by this new situation,” she added.
