No Gaps – managed itineraries and goPassport

Any growth in a country’s inbound tourism visitor numbers is typically supported by the strong supply chains that grow up alongside them. At the heart of this supply chain is the inbound tour operators (ITO). ITO build trusted business relationships and provide the gateway for national tourism products to access the international markets which they rely on. ITOs are local businesses that provide itinerary planning, product selection and coordination of an international visitor’s reservations. They bring components such as accommodation, tours, experiences, transport and meals together to create a fully inclusive, managed itinerary.

In the new normal for travel, ITO bring a powerful layer of control and safety, managing not only the itinerary but the risk elimination requirements for the incoming visitor. In case of infection they can also rapidly handle the changed logistics, and directly manage safe passage to the home country.

Managed itineraries combined with the clinical and technology process of goPassport creates a “no gaps” approach to the incoming visitor’s rich experience.

Hotels, transport, tours and other services

As service suppliers enact their Covid ready guidelines and manage their staff health through social distancing, contactless systems and delivering rigorous sanitation routines, service suppliers can self report their daily practices into the goPassport Health Portal. This enables real-time suppliers’ status and policy guidelines to be visible to the travel industry and travellers themselves, ensuring safety for the duration of the itinerary. In return, incoming travellers’ health status will be visible to services suppliers to ensure a complete layer of continuity in risk reduction.

goPassport’s pilots can support ITO involvement in risk managed travel operations.

The financial impacts on farms, accommodation and hospitality businesses due to the impacted supply of temporary workers has been noted during COVID-19. Seasonal workers in these sectors – both temporary and local – and their recruitment agencies will benefit from industry, agency or employer deployment of goPassport.

goPassport pilots could include farm, accommodation and hospitality workers involved with, for example, the Seasonal Worker Programme in Australia to prove control and results with pre-testing and health monitoring, managed travel and itinerary compliance monitoring.

goPassport is able to minimise the risk of COVID-19 to ship operators by ensuring that a port, the supporting airport and accommodation are very low risk and that all crew have met screening requirements. goPassport reduces the risk of bringing COVID-19 on board.

Safely pre-position crews

Crews needing to board ships at foreign ports may travel safely to the port using goPassport’s trip risk planning tool and pre-travel health check procedures. Crews can then confidently board knowing they’re not bringing the virus on board. Journeys can also be planned for disembarking crews thereby minimising risk on return flights.

Reduce port costs

goPassport helps minimise port costs by reducing delays due to infections requiring onboard quarantine of all crew.

Reduce cargo spoil & insurance

Infection/quarantine delays in port can prevent cargo from being unloaded and cause freight to spoil, which increases insurance costs.
