"Traveling all around the world has been slowed down in November by the second wave of quarantine as the states are fighting the spread of the virus. We are exploiting this period for the preparation for the upcoming 2021 holiday season: communicating with our partners abroad, reviewing next year's contracts, complementing our product portfolio, considering new possible holiday destinations. In the absence of usual operations, we do all this invisible for our travelers work to be prepared for a strong start. At the same time we keep our focus on disciplinary adherence to the cost optimization policy in order to secure stronger foundations for our performance indicators improvement when we will be able to operate more sustainably”, says Audronė Keinytė, Head of “Novaturas” Group.
