AGP Executive Report
Last update: an hour agoTravel Safety Pulse: Long-haul demand is cooling again this summer, but Europe still leads travellers’ perceptions of safety, even as overall interest dips and people book more cautiously with price and safety weighing more heavily. Border Rules & Queues (EES): The EU’s Entry/Exit System (EES) is causing extra waits at European airports, and Heathrow is warning travellers heading to Schengen areas like Spain and France to plan for delays. Andorra in the EES Exemptions: The EU says some travellers don’t need to use EES, including Andorra passport holders, which could mean fewer queue headaches for eligible travellers. Passport Pitfall: A UK holidaymaker was turned away for a Tenerife trip after his passport was flagged as invalid because it was issued more than 10 years earlier—an expensive reminder to double-check entry rules before you fly. Local Travel Calendar (Andorra): Cycling fans get a home-race boost: Tom Pidcock will miss the Tour de Suisse and, health permitting, race the Andorra MoraBanc Classica on 21 June. Home-Swap Trend: With accommodation costs rising, more travellers are swapping homes for free via platforms, chasing a more local stay and lower overtourism pressure.
