A recent report notes the following trends in the tourism market:

The World Tourism Organisation (WTO) suggests that the following characteristics of current demand, mean that players in the market must adapt. It spells gloom for conventional destinations and two-week package holidays:

  • Shorter holidays
  • Customized holidays
  • Demand for conventional non-hotel accommodation
  • Holidays as "an experience", providing new knowledge
  • More senior tourists
  • Importance of sustainable development and fair trade principles
  • Advent of emerging destinations

The report said that the travel industry will have to wait to feel the positive economic effects of increased tourism because people are booking cheaper, last minute holidays.

The recovery in terms of number of trips has not been associated with a proportionate increase in revenues. Prices are playing a key role in purchase decisions. 

The market has maintained certain characteristics that were already observed in tourist behaviour since late last year, particularly delays in bookings and last-minute purchases".

However, the WTO concludes that in the medium-term expectations for the industry are positive. The strategies it outlines, which it observes are already underway, are alliances, mergers and acquisitions, which serve to reduce costs.

"There have been changes in business integration strategies and in management priorities, the configuration of the airline industry as well as advances and changes in its distribution systems".

Conclusion In a turbulent market place it is vital to hold on to customers, and be able to respond quickly to their needs - hence the need for an accurate relevant database.
