Session Information
Insurance premiums and operating costs are climbing across the motorcoach industry, putting pressure on margins and ultimately the price of group travel. Using new ABA Foundation insurance research as the starting point, this session will examine what is driving the increases, how operators are responding and what higher transportation costs could mean for the broader travel industry.
What You’ll Learn
A better understanding of the cost pressures facing operators, where the market may be headed, and how companies should budget, price and plan ahead.
