Off Broadway Travel, based in Welwyn, is calling for Welwyn Hatfield s MP and Secretary of State for Transport Grant Shapps to visit its shop to see the reality of the role of the travel agent in 2021.
The invitation for a meeting follows Shapps’ comment in his May 7 press briefing about travel businesses being “what people would have called travel agents in the past”.
The award-winning travel agency, which has been a part of the Welwyn community for 13 years, wants to speak to the Secretary of State for Transport to show how travel agents are crucial to rebuilding the outbound tourism industry, which is worth over £37 billion to the economy, and explain how government announcements have affected them.
