It is too early to say if there has been any short or long-term impact on bookings. VisitBritain are working closely with the tourism industry to monitor any impact on the sector and DCMS attends the Tourism Industry Emergency Response Group, which meets after major incidents.

Britain continues to welcome the millions of visitors from around the globe who come to enjoy the world-class attractions that our capital city, nations and regions have to offer.
