Please join us for a Tourism Economics webinar presentation with Adam Sacks, President and Dave Goodger, Director of Europe as they provide key insights and answers your questions on the topic.

As coronavirus has spread worldwide a growing number of countries have imposed restrictions on travel. These measures to combat contagion are causing a serious disruption to economic and travel activity. Large falls in travel are now expected for all destinations worldwide, but there remains significant uncertainty in the magnitude of the declines. Tourism Economics’ latest forecasts and scenarios will be discussed with a focus on the developments in European and North American hotspots.

We will be holding this presentation on Thursday, 19 March, at 4:30 pm GMT (12:30 pm EST). Fill out the form on the right-hand side of this page to attend.
