 "We have long admired Accor’s commitment to diversity and inclusion and are thrilled to expand our relationship to an integrated, year-round approach to advancing LGBTQ+ travel," said, John Tanzella, President and CEO, IGLTA.

Steven Daines, Chief Talent & Culture Officer, Accor said: "As a Group we are whole-heartedly committed to ensuring the LGBTQ+ community feels welcome. We hope our collaboration with IGLTA today will further consolidate our aspiration to be the reference point in the hospitality sector for LGBTQ+ employees and guests."
