The World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) has created the world first global stamp ‘Safe Travels’ protocols around the world for use as best practice guidelines to help restart the recovery of the Travel and Tourism sector.

The stamp provides travelers and tourism stakeholders to recognize destinations and companies around the world that have implemented health and hygiene protocols that are aligned with the Safe Travels protocols providing consistency to ensure the safety of travelers, once restrictions are eased.

The protocols for hospitality, outdoor retail, aviation, airports, tour operators, and convention centers, meetings and events industry are available and under development the protocols for the rental industry, attractions, insurance, car rental and cruise.

The latest research from WTTC’s 2020 Economic Impact Report shows that during 2019 the Travel & Tourism sector generated 330 million jobs, 1 in 10 jobs around the world, making a 10.3% contribution to the global GDP.  Another good reason to implement the global protocols to restore confidence to travelers and reinforce the sector.
