Congratulations to @UKHospKate on getting further specific sector support for hospitality, I only wish the outbound travel industry could get the same support, actually any support. We are forgotten and I for one will not forget it, my staff deserve better #savetravel @RishiSunak

And what about the poor travel sector you are so quick to impact and no help again ?
Nicola Sturgeon has said her 'heart breaks' for hospitality businesses who have had a 'sucker-punch' so close to Christmas. bit.ly/3m3BEpQ

“All of a sudden we’ve got a green list, a green watch list, an amber list, an amber plus list. It just goes on and on and it’s just an absolute shambles” @lahtravel owner Linda Hill Miller discusses Covid travel restrictions. #TheNine

£4.95 for a PCR test? Secretary of State says these are available for people traveling from a government approved supplier. On the gov. website? This shows you then how much people are being ripped off #Testing #Travel

Today is the #TravelDayOfAction. I was delighted to meet @lindahillWK at Westminster today. The industry has been abandoned by the Scottish Government. We need a whole UK approach to reopening international travel & appropriate levels of support for an sector under such pressure

Hardly the great surge in daily infections in popular parts of #Europe that #UKGov would have you believe. What is the vaccine for if you can’t travel to such low-risk areas? @ThePCAgency

As the Scottish Government announces that Scots looking to travel abroad will be able to access proof of their vaccination status, will summer holidays be on or off? Is the government messaging clear enough? @lindahillWK & @SimonCalder join us to discuss. #scotnight at 10.40pm
Today I’m taking further steps to support airlines as we head into Summer ✈️. Extending the slots waiver will mean that airlines can restart services as soon as it’s safe, while preventing environmentally damaging ghost flights gov.uk/government/news/slots…

Hi @RishiSunak with the increased quarantine measures and further restrictions on travel - due to the pandemic - our industry is being even more decimated - when we will see tailored financial support in order to keep travel alive for when it is safe to do so! #keeptravelalive

We sent a message last week to @FergusEwingMSP & @FionaHyslop in regards to the travel industry needing some urgent sector specific support - can someone come back to us on this? #SNP20 #SNP2020 we need to #keeptravelalive
How is everyone today? Hopefully we should receive a response soon from @FergusEwingMSP in relation to the questions that were asked to the Scottish Government at Holyrood on Wednesday in relation to support for our travel sector #keeptravelalive

Yesterday in Scotlands Parliament @GLindhurstMSP asked @FionaHyslop questions in regards to support for the travel industry - here is the reply to the questions. @FergusEwingMSP please engage with us soon to discuss this proposed support. #keeptravelalive
News from the Transport Sec this morning...what are peoples thoughts on this?
✈️ TEST TO RELEASE FOR INTERNATIONAL ARRIVALS ✈️ We’re cutting the self-isolation period by two thirds from 15 DECEMBER for passengers arriving into England. Taking a privately provided #COVID test on day five & receiving a negative result will end self-isolation.
Dear @AlokSharma_RDG can you advise why the latest covid support grants which are being distributed regionally do not include support for the travel industry? travel agents, tour operators etc - we are looking forward to hearing from you????
