Harding hunts for ABTA presidency

JOHN Harding has thrown his hat into the ring for the ABTA presidency.

The Travelscene sales director will be up against ABTA aviation committee chairman Sandy MacPherson for the role. A vote amongst ABTA board members will be taken in April.

Harding’s ‘election manifesto’ includes plans to give the ABTA Convention a higher profile and reduced bonding payments for agents and operators.
