"We need to basically turn this organization upside down, return it to the member states and not to the bureaucracy."
Candidate for UNWTO Secretary-General @htheoharis on reforming the UN's tourism agency.
It's going to be a very long and treacherous climb back up for the tourism industry. Before we even start on a "roadmap" for recovery we need a "mindmap" so here are some of my first musings. https://t.co/MuUyAoS8iK
Viajar en tiempos de coronavirus: estoy en Birmania, país fronterizo con China. No voy solo. Me acompañan 20 personas. Hay más viajeros de todas nacionalidades. Bagan está lleno. Los aviones van repletos. Nadie usa mascarillas. La vida sigue. En Europa nos hemos vuelto locos.

I am preparing a paper on how destinations are approaching marketing to European travellers. If you too work in #DestinationMarketing please find 3 minutes to answer this survey. If you are interested, I'm happy to share the results and my paper with you. https://t.co/04pxyPOn4n
The uncomfortable truth is that #Brexit cannot be delivered. It’s time we all faced the reality and were honest with the British people. We owe them a huge apology for a referendum with an option that was undefined & undeliverable.
You know how annoying it is when TV shows are only half dubbed and you can hear both languages? Well here's me talking through a Spanish interpreter who has to handle marketing, tourism and a British sense of humor https://t.co/fz0s19TBXS

@vlummertz@MTurismo @EmbraturNews It was an honor to listen to your vision of the future of Brazil's international tourism promotion and to humbly share mine.
What an honor to be asked by Brazil's minister of tourism and the president of Embratur to share my humble opinion of "the future of tourism marketing". My workshops lasted a full 5 hours so by the time I was done the "future" was a bit closer! @MMGYglobal
A @EmbraturNews realizou um debate sobre futuro da promoção turística, no @MTurismo. O objetivo foi mostrar as novas estratégias de marketing para conquistar turistas internacionais para o Brasil.
@roman_townsend@Gatwick_Airport Consider yourself fortunate they didn't arrest you for filming in the airport! When flying from Barajas you get a double whammy...queue to get out then queue to get in and low-cost seats in between. #JoysOfSummerTravel
Travel industry debate follows fads...2016 was all about security, 2017 was Sustainability and the catchy term #overtourism ...the "year of sustainable tourism" has been and gone but the problem has not and will not unless we all CHANGE. A timely, peak season reminder https://t.co/hJQeIcehXA
