Not enough Pride

AROUND two-thirds of travel programs do not take the needs of the LGBTQ+ travellers into consideration, a recent poll conducted by Business Travel Show Europe revealed.

The study, which surveyed 229 European travel managers, showed that only 26% of respondents believe their travel policy/program was built with special consideration for LGBTQ+ people, while only 8% said they “plan to do so this year”.

Compared to other historically underrepresented groups included in the survey, such as people with accessibility requirements, the LGBTQ+ group is the “least well provided for”.
