The travel industry is always the first to feel the tremors of a changing world - whether it’s the pandemic, volcanic ash clouds, strikes, or sudden geopolitical conflict.

The Geopolitical Minefield

Most travel professionals spend hours navigating a “geopolitical minefield,” trying to decode news headlines, sketchy sources and bureaucratic advisories.

Just in the past couple of weeks I’ve seen agents working 18-hour days just to make sense of news headlines about the situation in the Middle East for their clients.

This is the exhausting reality of managing by hindsight - reacting to crisis after crisis which has already cost you time, stress, hesitant clients, and potentially commissions.
