What a strange year it’s been, and what an ending it looks set to have. This year, between advising on brand identity, talking to journalists and facilitating trips, we have spent a lot of our time checking travel advice on behalf of our clients, and wondering what the industry landscape will look like in 2021 (we have everything crossed for a green bounce back).
