The Events Industry Council (EIC) released the Travel and Transportation Accepted Practices Guide. It is the latest accepted practices guide produced by EIC’s APEX COVID-19 Business Recovery Task Force.
The new guide:
- Assists travellers in evaluating the risk level before booking a trip
- Provides resources to educate on destination regulations and restrictions
- Addresses major travel modalities (ground, air, rail, cruise) and highlights new safety and cleanliness policies that enhance traveller safety
- Emphasizes the personal responsibility required to maintain a safe travel environment
“Bringing businesses, communities and people together face-to-face is at the heart of our industry’s purpose. The travel experience is a fundamental and foundational element to the journey of participation and event curation,” said Amy Calvert, CEO, Events Industry Council. “This guide is intended to be a helpful tool for us all as we contemplate our path forward. These resources represent an industry-wide commitment to safety and security, and serve as a reminder that while we will never be able to mitigate all risk associated with travel, we have a commitment and the expertise to create safe travel and meeting experiences.”
The guide includes information on:
- Pre-travel evaluation, during and post-travel guidance
- Government and travel regulation resources
- Safety protocols by travel modes including a resource guide
“This is about building trust and confidence,” said Travel and Transportation working group Chair Amanda Armstrong, CMP, Assistant Vice President, Enterprise Holdings, Inc. “The best way to do that is to provide the information and tools needed to ‘know before you go’ as well as during a trip and afterward. That’s exactly what this guide does for the most experienced road warrior and novice traveller.”
Members of the Travel and Transportation working group will host a webinar on Friday, 30 October at 11:00 am EDT/UTC -04:00 to review the guide. Register for the free webinar: https://bit.ly/31SHwZh.
Previous releases of EIC accepted practices guides and supporting materials include the Meeting and Event Design Accepted Practices Guide, a Code of Conduct, Health and Safety for Hotels Accepted Practices Guide, EIC Principles for Recovery, Key Questions for Event Organisers, and Resources for Workforce and Wellness Accepted Practices Guide.
The APEX COVID-19 Business Recovery Task Force is led by Co-chairs Michael Dominguez, President and CEO, Associated Luxury Hotels International (ALHI), and Kristin Horstman, Senior Director, Strategic Events, Salesforce. With representation from across the many sectors and regions of the global events ecosystem, the APEX COVID-19 Business Recovery Task Force provides a voice in planning, preparing and participating in our recovery and our future. The task force is also amplifying the story of our economic and social impact as advocates for our industry.
“The engagement with the task force resources shows how much our industry depends on centralised, accessible and trustworthy sources of information,” said Dominguez. “We are all working toward a path of recovery, and these aggregated resources continue to provide a valuable framework for meeting face-to-face again.”
