The BTA Pulse | Business Travel Faces Rising Costs, Sustainability Challenges and Border Delays
Description
Welcome to The BTA Podcast. In these podcasts we will endeavour to share our thoughts, concerns, optimism and build those all-important human connections with our Partners, Members and Guests.
Episode Overview:
In this episode of The BTA Pulse, hosts Clive Wratten and Andrew Clark cover a hot couple of weeks for the Business Travel Association, in more ways than one.
Clive's been all over the airwaves discussing Heathrow drop-off charges, following RAC research into rising costs for the travelling public, while Andrew unpacks Edinburgh's new 5% hotel levy and what a similar set-fee model could mean for English cities.
The pair also reflect on the Sustainability Conference, where buyer and industry voices explored SAF progress, ESG and accessibility, before looking ahead to a packed autumn — including the Mobility Conference and the eagerly-anticipated Autumn Conference in Alicante, now nearing capacity.
There's also the latest on EES delays and the reported pushback of ETIAS, plus a look at how BTA members are supporting ground transport logistics behind the scenes of the Glasgow Commonwealth Games.
