Episode Notes

This is Brand USA Talks Travel, Episode 1, with special guest Chris Thompson, our President and CEO. Our topic: the USA is open for international travel once more.

Mark's questions for Chris are timestamped below.

0:29 - As you speak with leaders in the travel industry, what are you hearing about the opening?

0:59 - Tell us about the [reopening] event in New York.

1:22 - All the travel sources that I read seem to indicate that travelers are feeling a high propensity to book, but at the same time, can be confused about the messaging surrounding health concerns. How do we begin to mitigate that?

3:00 - In thirty seconds or so, can you tell us about how Brand USA's partners can participate in the effort?

3:36 - I know that you attended Arne Sorenson's memorial service this past week. Would you mind sharing a little bit about the service?
