ENSURING SAFE TRAVEL IN "THE NEW NORMAL"

Return to travel and main complexities: the current environment
1Total passenger numbers are expected to reach 2.3 billion in 2021. This will grow to 3.4 billion in 2022 which is
similar to 2014 levels and significantly below the 4.5 billion travelers of 2019.

In today's ever-changing environment, impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic, travel has undoubtedly become more complicated - although for many businesses and organisations it is still essential to ensure their business continuity.

In this context, more assistance is needed than ever before - in Europe alone, we have seen a 60% increase1 in the number of cases handled by our Assistance Centres per 100 trips². Travellers and their managers are commonly seeking our advice to help them navigate the complexity of country restrictions and, of course, managing the threats of the disease itself.
International SOS can support you and your organisation at every stage of your travel plan, and can provide you with support and assistance both while planning, to prevent and mitigate any travel risks, and during the trip itself, where we are ready to assist you in case of need.
