    The BTA Pulse | NATS Failures, Heathrow Charges and Hotel Levy Dominate Conversations

    Send us Fan Mail Welcome to The BTA Podcast.  In these podcasts we will endeavour to share our thoughts, concerns, optimism and build those all-important human connections with our Partners, Members and Guests. Episode Overview: Clive Wratten and Andrew Clarke covered a busy period for business travel. Air traffic control: Andrew's own trip was hit by Gulf airspace and volcanic disruption, but the main focus was NATS' latest UK failure — the third in three years. Both criticised NATS' muted response and the government's "inquiry, lessons learned" approach, noting airlines bear the cost while NATS faces none. Heathrow charges: BTA continues backing "Heathrow Reimagined," having written to the CAA and Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander over cost mechanisms that could pass development costs to travellers. Hotel levy: Clive discussed it live on Radio 5 — reports suggest no cap on rates and a percentage rather than flat fee. Hosts rejected the "tourist tax" framing, calling it a tax on business and growth, warning it risks pricing UK cities out of major events. Budget submission: Ahead of the October budget, BTA's asks include no further APD rises, regrading premium economy tax, and firm rail investment (HS2/Euston), coordinated with GBTA. Upcoming events: BTA Autumn Conference in Alicante (~2 weeks, ~190 attendees, Andrew moderating) and the London Mobility Conference (next Tuesday, alongside the People Awards).

    The BTA Pulse | Gearing Up the Autumn Conferences, Politics and Industry Change

    Send us Fan Mail Welcome to The BTA Podcast.  In these podcasts we will endeavour to share our thoughts, concerns, optimism and build those all-important human connections with our Partners, Members and Guests. Episode Overview: In this episode of The BTA Pulse, hosts Clive Wrattan and Andrew Clarke record together in person for a change — fresh from a full day planning next month's Autumn Conference in Benidorm. Andrew, on moderating duty this year, previews a stacked agenda including Steve Richards on post-recess politics, Andy Burnham's return to the Commons, and a rare session on the TMC commercial model from the BTA's own board directors. Elsewhere, the pair reflect on a busy podcast run — including upcoming episodes with Cvent on AI in events and Fly Victor on private jets — before turning to the Commonwealth Games' first-ever combined Para and able-bodied format, and what its accommodation and logistics challenges mean ahead of the BTA's Mobility Conference on 15 September in London. They close by looking to a busy September, with government back from recess and the industry gearing up post-summer.
