The World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) has announced Allianz Partners as its latest industry partner, expanding its network of organisations involved in shaping the direction of travel and tourism.

As part of its membership, Allianz Partners will contribute its experience in travel protection, assistance services and digital solutions. The collaboration will support ongoing discussions around traveller confidence, emergency response systems and the development of more connected travel experiences.

Gloria Guevara, President and CEO of WTTC, said the addition of Allianz Partners reflects the growing role of traveller assurance and operational resilience across the sector.

She noted that as travel continues to evolve, integrated insurance and assistance services are becoming increasingly relevant in supporting safe and efficient journeys. She added that Allianz Partners brings a global perspective that will contribute to wider industry efforts.

Anna Kofoed, Chief Officer Global Strategic Partnerships & Travel (interim) at Allianz Partners, said joining WTTC offers an opportunity to engage with a network focused on the future of travel.
