Travel industry highlight
Friday’s episode of Radio 4’s You and Yours included a spotlight on the travel industry, looking at how a quarter of UK travel agents and a fifth of tour operators are in danger of going out of business.
It featured Nick Hood, insolvency practitioner with Opus Restructuring, using Company Watch data to show that there needs to be a focus on ordinary travel agents rather than the really big players, as these are more likely to fail and therefore cause consumer problems.
