AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Dover Disruption: French authorities suspended extra EU border checks at the Port of Dover after holidaymakers were trapped in queues of up to three hours in 30C heat, with the port later reporting traffic “free-flowing” and checks temporarily back on. Heatwave Watch: The UK is baking through the bank holiday with the Met Office calling Saturday the hottest day of the year so far, and warning Monday could hit 33C—hotter than the Seychelles—while UV levels stay high. Travel Pressure Points: Earlier reports said some drivers faced near five-hour ferry delays, and the chaos is being blamed on the rollout of new EU digital passport controls. Regional Ripple Effects: Beyond Europe, Seychelles-linked travel policy shifts are in focus as Thailand tightens visa-free rules, and Seychelles tourism leadership has been reshuffled with Vesna Rakić named CEO of the Seychelles Tourism Board.
