AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Border Friction in Greece: The EU’s Entry-Exit biometric rollout is now fully operational at Athens, and travelers are reporting major passport-control delays—up to about two and a half hours at peak times—while Greece insists there’s no blanket summer exemption for British visitors, only possible scanner shutdowns during heavy traffic. Airline Expansion: United Airlines is launching its first-ever flights to Sapporo and adding a new year-round Chicago–Tokyo Narita link, betting on stronger winter Japan demand. Tourism Policy Clash: In the UK, Watches of Switzerland’s boss is urging the next prime minister to scrap the tourist tax and restore VAT-free shopping for visitors. Health & Travel Risk: A hantavirus scare tied to a cruise ship continues to underline how quickly animal-borne illness can spill into travel plans. Culture as a Magnet: Venice’s Biennale is drawing crowds citywide—turning the usual mass-tourism headaches into a reason to explore beyond the main squares.
