“As South Africa is the strategic hub for connectivity to the rest of the African continent, this move will motivate and enhance member states to follow suit with travel and tourism making a critical economic contribution to the regional gross domestic product,” said Cuthbert Ncube, Chairman of the African Tourism Board.
The business and event travel and tourism sector has been proactive in making sure that industry-specific public health and safety protocol standards are developed and implemented in compliance with the Safer Tourism Seal endorsement program.
The ATB is also in line with the African Union's initiative towards the Single African Air Transport Market (SAATM) as a flagship project for the Agenda 2026.
