We have entered the winter in London, rainfall for several weeks. Local media will be blunt, cold weather as the slump in tourism nowadays is some sort of metaphor.

However, in the G20 summit held early this year the eastern part of the London Excel Exhibition Center, the global tourism market sentiment diminished the General Assembly, 187 countries and regions participating, 50000, as well as two thousand people in the trade visitors – directly adjacent to the subway Station 2 days straight overcrowded, the staff needed to maintain order in order to properly access.

“Cheap goods” anywhere to be found

After the sluggish autumn selling period, the whole of Europe is enveloped in the Christmas of the “New Year” promotional atmosphere. For example: From London, time-consuming 25-day trip to the Far East Flying cruise from Singapore, Bangkok, and then to various cities in China, quote only the more than 2000 pounds (£ 1 about 11.44 yuan); Thailand two weeks of vacation offer more than 1000 pounds; and Las Vegas offer a week of travel, compared with £ 689.

Even so, the intention is not to increase the number of tourists.

“The industry outlook is still and unknown risk factors exist. It now appears that next year’s price war is inevitable, the industry from a recession into a plateau by 2011, the industry was likely to rebound.” Global Travel Association President Jean Crowe Germany accepted an exclusive interview with CBN reporter said.

The association survey: Almost all indicators were to go down. The number of global travel booking fell 8% year on year, while in 2009 the hotel’s reservation quantity decreased by 16%; the global aviation the number of passengers onboard were shrunk by 14%.

Consulting firm Euromonitor International’s annual statistics are even more pessimistic: a global business travel gross income year ending in July of this year plunged into a 4. In North America, the massive decline in travel demand to bring this year’s average of 20% to 30% of the offer down, and some travel agencies even offer “cut.”

“Discount? Of course, to be kept alive, at least until 2011, will gradually decrease. Tourism, the economic situation has been held in check, but now the economic outlook have not yet been improved. You can still easily find cheap hotels and holiday packages Of course, there are cheap tickets. “Jean-Claude said.

This year, Finnair business in Europe is expected to creep higher this year. Travel research firm PhoCusWright forecasts that online booking is an edge up 0.6 percent this year in its latest report. At the same time it discourages a hell of a wider European travel market, which is expected to be less than 10 per cent of 2009th Europeans

Carol Rheem director of research at PhoCusWright, says: “What the Europeans seek to make most of their valuable time off this year, they are increasingly using the Internet to plan the best vacation of their budget.” He continues: “Now travel agencies, weather the economic storm better than any other booking channel.”

Although there is still room for surprise at the end of the year (not likely), the space for Finnair is expected to see gross bookings of € 23 billion, as we close 2009 book, supplier websites off-line travel agencies.

“Even in the grim backdrop to travel in 2009, some travel agencies have been successful – and not all of them are OTAs [on-line travel agencies]. Countercyclical trend is exacerbated by declining to strengthen their business during the other. They depend on business travelers are among the hardest hit,” Rheem busy. Business travel is expected to be off 17 percent a year.
