IPP Default Insurance Plan
Date: 9/28/2008

 URGENT

Dear Colleagues,
 
 
Would you please see attached mail received from IATA Gulf Area Assistant Manager.
 
This is self explanatory and you need to address this issue immediately if you wish to move forward with the alternative insurance bonding as opposed to the IATA Bang Guarantees. At the recent DTTAG General Body Meeting, virtually every travel agency present, with the exception of one, voted to take this issue forward. However DTTAG have received very few written confirmations from the trade and this is needed urgently on your headed stationery. This letter should also confirm that you have no objection to disclosing your sales volume to I.P.P. on the basis that your agency name will not be disclosed.
 
As advised, we have little time to complete this process so I would ask you to reply to me immediately with your confirmation so I can liaise with both IATA and IPP.
 
Regards and best wishes,
 
Leo Fewtrell
DTTAG.

Dear APJC Members,
 
Please, confirm the final list of agents interested in DIP and provided you with written (e-mail) consent to disclose their data.
This list should be e-mailed to our office latest by 15 Oct. 2008
 
Please, note that the number of interested agents affects the premium (the more the agents and sales volume, the less the premium).
 
Should you have any question, please feel free to contact me at any time.
 
Best regards,
