Manage episode 462236902 series 3470145
Donald Trump’s return to the White House has the hotel industry hopeful for policies like tax cuts and expanded worker visas to boost business, as the expiration of key tax provisions could lead to a 33% increase in taxes. Meanwhile, TikTok will remain accessible in the U.S. after Trump extended the deadline for ByteDance to find a buyer, preventing a federal ban that could have disrupted travel marketing for major brands like Expedia and Disney Parks. Additionally, online travel agency Agoda has launched a Sustainable Tourism Impact Fund to support small businesses in Southeast Asia with low-interest loans to promote eco-friendly practices.
