Trade Secrets on the road, part 3: How does Europe’s travel agency landscape compare to the U.S.?

Trade Secrets is on the road for a special, three-episode series recorded on the ground at the ASTA Travel Advisor Conference in Dallas. In this episode, the final in the series, co-hosts Emma Weissmann and Jamie Biesiada welcome Eric Dresin, the secretary general of the European Travel Agents’ and Tour Operators’ Associations (ECTAA), onto the show. They chat about the travel agency landscape in Europe, the phenomenon of Europe’s travel “planners” (who don’t actually book travel) and more. Then, hear from Thekla Kammenou of the Greece-based tour operator Four Ways Travel, about the tourism scene in Greece and some of her favorite spots. This episode is sponsored by Iberostar Hotels & Resorts.  Further resources Eric Dresin on LinkedIn The ECTAA Four Ways Travel online and on Facebook Thekla Kammenou on LinkedIn, Facebook and email Need advice?
