"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. interfacetourism.es/en/2020/04/24/…

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.

La periodista Almudena Domenech lleva trabajando dos décadas en EFE, pero en los últimos cinco años se ha dedicado en cuerpo y alma a una de las noticias más importantes del siglo: el brexit Conoce a la delegada de EFE en el Reino Unido #EFEsiempreestá efe.com/efe/espana/por…

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. es.surveymonkey.com/r/7TSN7RQ

Last day here @WTM_LDN - come and get your reusable water bottles for just £5 from our stand BL4 on Main Boulevard. Thank you to all our water station sponsors @affordableCH @AirEuropa @atta_tourism @PalmBeachesFL @SKAL_Intl and to @MMGY for their continued support! #WTMLDN

Great to see a full house on #WorldResponsibleTourismDay for an inspiring panel of change-makers with @FionaJeffery from @JustADrop at the center makers #tourism4good

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.

@Ted_Sullivan looking cool and smiling stoically throughout !

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 youtu.be/QmZNPBZYoTc

@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.

Com os colegas do @MTurismo e da @EmbraturNews, participei do workshop sobre promoção turística. Capacitação como esta é muito importante para quem trabalha com a divulgação e a promoção do turismo.

👉 Futuro da Promoção Turística é debatido em Workshop bit.ly/2McJj1q (via Locomotiva Viagens) #TurismoNews

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

@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

Surely Gatwick Airport can manage the passport waiting lines better than this? Not like we’ve all turned up by surprise. Airport tax takes a big part of flight cost. @Gatwick_Airport #Airports

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 twitter.com/r_travel/statu…

@r_travel Thank you for this excellent and much needed work.
