Email: query-bqcx@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: The Washington Post

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 5 January

Query:

I'm researching a story about the things that would make you
feel safer in 2021 -- safe enough to plan a trip or to go on
vacation. What are some of the things your airline, cruise line,
hotel, car rental company, or travel agent can do to make you
feel more comfortable about traveling? What are some of the
things it should not do? From people in the travel industry, I'm
interested in any new initiatives that are designed to make
people feel safer. What do you think it will take to make
travelers feel more secure?

Category: Travel

Email: query-bqcy@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: The Washington Post

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 5 January

Query:

Many travel agencies have gone out of business during the
pandemic. I'm looking for someone whose agent is no longer in
business and has had to find a new advisor. Where did you find a
new agent? Did you find an agent through a website or a personal
referral? I'm also interested in hearing from agents who have
added new clients during the pandemic. Were there any who came
to you because their agent was no longer in business? How did
they find you? From travel experts, I'd be very interested in
your advice for finding a good travel agent after the pandemic.
