On this World Tourism Day, let the World heal through TRAVEL

The pandemic has left deep scars on almost everyone… someone lost a family member, someone a friend, some lost work while many lost their jobs and sources of livelihood. Yet they say, human spirit is resilient and bounces back stronger than before after every calamity. On this World Tourism Day, let the world know that people will only heal through travel and let the process begin…

September 27, 2021

‘On this World Tourism Day, I hope that for the coming months, government will start focussing more on skill development and providing financial security to the professionals in the travel trade. The corridors of communication between the agents and airlines need to become more receptive and we at TAAI are working strongly towards it. We are a resilient industry and rise to every occasion to work towards the betterment of tourism and upliftment of the economy of our country.’

 – Jyoti Mayal, President, Travel Agents Association of India (TAAI)

—————————————————————————————————————————-

 

‘Over the years, tourism has contributed significantly to the exchequer and has been a major employer as well. However, the last 18 months have taken a toll on the inbound tourism sector. It has been one of the worst phases for the tour operators and in view of the debilitating hardship endured, IATO earnestly urges the government to restore SEIS benefit to 7%, as was paid a year before. On this World Tourism Day, I hope our pleas are considered seriously.’

 – Rajiv Mehra, President, Indian Associations of Tour Operators (IATO)

—————————————————————————————————————————

‘As Covid cases played their erratic game in the last few months – dipping, rising and then dipping again, many people took solace in the idea of exploring their own country and taking a short driveable break. Domestic Tourism has played a crucial role in helping people maintain their calm and I have no doubt that in the coming year, more and more people will be attracted towards exploring their own country first. On this Would Tourism Day, I can confidently say that India will heal through domestic travel.’

– P. P. Khanna, President, Association of Domestic Tour Operators in India (ADTOI)

———————————————————————————————————————-

‘The MICE sector has been one of the worst hit during the pandemic as the very concept of ‘physical meeting’ underwent a whole new change. On this World Tourism Day, I hope we move forward towards a future where ‘meeting and greeting’ becomes part of our business yet again. MICE and Tourism Professionals should get vaccinated and we must all collectively focus towards showcasing India as a safe destination to host events and exhibitions.’

 – Amaresh Tiwari, Vice Chairman, India Conventions Promotion Bureau (ICPB)

—————————————————————————————————————————-

‘This World Tourism Day, I hope that the worst is behind us and that we are all moving forward towards the end of the pandemic. I hope the government will open up commercial flights so that international travel can resume and people’s faith in international travel is reinstated yet again. On this World Tourism Day, I urge people in the travel trade to please get vaccinated and not be afraid to undertake an international holiday.’

 – Riaz Munshi, President, Outbound Tour Operators Association of India (OTOAI)

—————————————————————————————————————————–

‘As we commemorate the 41st World Tourism Day we stand on the cusp of a revival after the devastation of the last 18 months. Let us today reaffirm out commitment to resurrect the travel and tourism industry with a renewed sense of purpose; with a pledge to make it more responsible, more sustainable, more equitable and more caring of the planet. Tourism is a powerful tool to eliminate poverty, enhance gender parity, heal wounds of conflict and foster peace. Let us embrace this higher paradigm of tourism and work together as an industry to leave the world a better place.’

– Mr. Ajay Prakash, President, Travel Agents Fraternity of India (TAFI)

————————————————————————————————————————–

‘As Founding Member and President of RTSOI, it is my earnest appeal to my Tourism Colleagues to now see for themselves the sincerity, dedication, effort and even sometimes personal resources we have put behind this cause since 2008. We seek their unqualified support!! This is a contribution to our future generations. A CSR activity which has no immediate returns. This is a payback to our Industry and our Country. So, please stand by us in our mission. We are deeply grateful to all those who believed in us and stood by us in our journey so far.’

– Mr. Rakesh Mathur, Founding Member & Honorary President, Responsible Tourism Society of India (RTSOI)
