37、 summer has continued to build on the recovery reported in last quarters report.Latest data from TourMIS,which largely goes up to August shows European arrivals 6.0%ahead of 2019 levels and nights 4.9%ahead.Although both are firmly in growth territory,the summer months have seen a faster pace of gro
38、wth in arrivals than nights.This reverses the trend earlier in the year when nights were outpacing arrivals.Europe reported a surge in tourist overnights in 2023 and so far,it is on track to surpass last years demand.Year-on-year arrivals are up 7.1%and nights 5.2%this summer.Although higher travel

43、eporting destinations.Summer travel(June-August)so far has continued to build on last year.Arrivals to Europe are ahead of 2023 by 7.1%and nights 5.2%.Across both metrics,only Iceland and Luxembourg are reporting a decline in nights year-on-year.Currently Europe is on track to exceed last years numb
44、er of tourist arrivals despite persistently elevated costs for tourism-related businesses.Central and Eastern European destinations continue to lag behind in the recovery to 2019,but year-on-year performance for many countries in these sub-regions remains strong,indicating the recovery is still on t
45、rack,albeit more delayed than others.Air traffic delays have continued to disrupt destinations in recent months,impacting them at a time when they typically see the largest turnover of travellers.The impact across countries has varied considerably,with tourists travelling through Germany and Greece
46、facing some of the worst delays.10 spent in Slovakia(up from-11.8%to-5.3%).There have also been some stronger outturns across larger and more established destinations such as the Netherlands,where arrivals are now 8.2%ahead of 2019 and Croatia recording a 10.7%increase in arrivals over the same peri
47、od.On the whole,growth in the last quarter relative to 2019 has largely been concentrated in nights and among the destinations which have yet to fully recover.The modest growth data for France in 2024 is only preliminary and up to June and does not include the impacts of the Olympic and Paralympic g
48、ames in August and September.Industry data suggests that arrivals followed a typical pattern during this period,with many tourists staying away out of concern of overcrowding.This effect typically extends to the period immediately surrounding mega-events,but is often followed by a strong rebound and
49、 growth period as the destination has been in the spotlight.Europe is on track to exceed prior levels so far this year,as in all months,apart from April,arrivals have been ahead of last year.This is based on data from TourMIS and comparing the same set of destinations.Annual growth started to modera
50、te towards the start of the summer,but it picked up again in August;and the final outturn for that month is likely to be stronger as more countries report data.At a country level,all but two destinations are reporting growth year-on-year across both metrics.Luxembourg(-4.3%)and Iceland(-5.6%)are see
51、ing fewer nights than in 2023.For Luxembourg,the decline in overnights was largely due to a drop in the camping sector(especially with regard to Dutch guests),given the exceptionally high volumes last year.This comparison also highlights the improvement in arrivals in destinations within Central and
52、 Eastern Europe,in particular,Romania(12.8%),Latvia(12.7%)and Estonia(10.7%),albeit on a small base.Although they still have some of the largest gains to make to recover to 2019 levels,they are on an upward trajectory.European arrivals 2024,year-on-year growth(%)by month As demand is on track to rea
53、ch new highs,some destinations struggled to manage the continued influx of tourists over the peak summer period(June-August).This has led to protests in hotspots across Europe,notably in Spain(between May-June)and Greece(July),highlighting concerns and issues with overtourism,questioning whether the
54、 value that tourists bring in terms of income and employment is still more than the strain it puts on the environment,natural resources and local residents.There was a concern that the visibility of these protests would deter tourists and it is likely to have contributed to people choosing alternati
55、ve destinations instead,but with tourism activity across Europe up on 2023 and 2019 levels,there appears so far to have had any significant impact on growth.Headline inflation in the region has continued to improve,with the European Central Bank and the Bank of England cutting rates over the summer.
56、However,services inflation including tourism price inflation,has remained sticky.Tourism businesses typically face higher costs over the summer due to the higher volume of tourists e.g.in the form of food,beverages and utilities.Services inflation has remained ahead of headline inflation throughout
57、the year to September.Within services,prices for tourism-related services have been a mixed bag so far this year,when comparing against 2023.Prices for international flights in the Euro Area continued to decline in July and fares picked up slightly in August.The decrease-5%0%5%10%15%20%JanFebMarAprM
58、ayJunJulAugSource:TourMIS%year11 likely reflects lower fuel costs for carriers,but also to some extent some discounting to encourage increased travel over the summer period.In contrast,accommodation and package holiday price inflation(both domestic and international)continue to exceed services infla
59、tion,although growth rates did become more aligned during July and August.Tourists have become more accustomed to the higher prices associated with holidays and travel and have continued to prioritise this despite paying more for their trips this summer.Euro area inflation(%),seasonally adjusted,HIC
60、P definition Tourism price inflation remains a concern to the continued recovery and growth in tourism across the region,affecting both intra-regional and long-haul demand.For source markets outside of the Euro area,relative inflation is also important to tourists from further afield such as in the
61、Americas and Asia Pacific.Although US arrivals into Europe still remain up on 2023,the latest long-haul travel barometer by the ETC has found that 44%of travellers from long-haul markets highlight cost as the biggest barrier to travel to Europe.Frequent air traffic disruptions over the summer involv
62、ing a number of different European countries are likely to have dampened the recovery and growth across the region.Recent statistics have reported that nearly 40%of passengers in Europe this summer experienced delays or cancellations.Delays and disruptions are nothing new for tourists across Europe
63、as they have been fairly persistent since international borders reopened following the pandemic.A lot of issues(flights cancelled in Sicily following the eruption of Mount Etna and air traffic control delays in Greece affecting around 50%of passengers between June and August),were reported in Southe
64、rn and Mediterranean countries including Greece and Italy and some of this could be down to the sheer rise in demand and an increased timetable of flights to meet this growth.A more concentrated flight schedule and airspace across the region,can mean that a small delay has the potential to cause a l
65、arge knock-on effect to other flights.Despite persistent issues in air traffic,tourists continued to visit these destinations and the recovery in the Southern Mediterranean region remains strong.But for countries such as Germany which have been slow to come back,both in terms of air travel and inter
66、national arrivals and nights,delays and cancellations will push back the eventual recovery.Disruptions are set to continue into the final quarter of the year with travel strikes already on the books for October.Although fewer people will be affected in the shoulder season than over the summer,disrup
67、tions may lead tourists to seek alternative destinations or transport methods to avoid delays or cancellations.-8-6-4-20246810Jan-24Feb-24Mar-24Apr-24May-24Jun-24Jul-24Aug-24Sep-24HeadlineServicesInternational flightsAccommodationTotal package holidaysSource:HaverAnalytics%year12 Summary performance

84、industry began its post-pandemic recovery(in December 2023 and April 2024),the 3-month moving average figure(3mth mav)had yet to breach the same recovery threshold.However,further and consistent growth in demand has finally pulled that average above the benchmark.Further,there was clear upward momen

93、e Islamic holy month of Ramadan covered all but six days of May.During Ramadan,travelling to or from Islamic countries is likely to be at a much lower level than normal.Since Ramadan moves each year,demand in May 2024 was unaffected and is thus inflating the underlying trend.This effect is even more
94、 evident in the Middle East where Ramadan is more widely observed.International monthly air passenger growth(%change)Flight data from Eurocontrol provides country level detail for Europe to August.These data show that performance has been mixed in recent months.Based on the latest three months(June-
95、August),fewer than half of European countries saw an increase in the number of flights arriving and departing compared to the same three months of 2019.But this does not necessarily indicate a lack of demand.Increasingly,supply shortages in several areas of the industry have been a concern;so far in
96、 2024 passenger load factor across Europe has been equivalent or higher than 2019 and is likely to continue rising as airlines struggle to acquire new aircraft to bolster their fleets and/or to maintain the current fleet.This is due to parts shortages and backlogs in MRO facilities(a workshop or han
97、gar that engages in and conducts aircraft maintenance,repairs,and overhaul services to ensure aircraft safety,reliability,and airworthiness through an aircrafts lifecycle).It will stifle a net increase in flight volumes,but it also means airlines will need to be savvy with their fleets to reallocate
98、 aircraft away from less to more lucrative routes.This appears to be the case across Europe,where a very marginal decline in flight volumes over the June-August period compared to 2019 is balanced by winners and losers at a country level:Malta enjoyed the biggest increase in the number of flights wi

130、sity with which tourism occurs in certain destinations has led to revival of the“overtourism”discussion post-pandemic.Overtourism generally relates to visitation and perception during the peak period,which across Europe is the summer months(June-August).Some cities and islands in Greece and Italy ha
131、ve already implemented policies intended to dilute the negative impacts of tourism,by stemming the flow of tourists and levying taxes on their presence.Anti-tourist sentiment made the news this summer,with large-scale tourism-related protests in some popular destinations such as Barcelona and the Ca
132、nary Islands.Tourism intensity across selected European cities(tourist nights per capita)424446484104124144164202420232019Total nightsper capitaSource:Tourism Economics Tourists continued to return to Europe in large numbers over the summer.But some destinations saw a disproportionally higher number
133、 of these tourists than others.As a result,they faced additional strains on the environment,local residents and resources leading to protests across the regions.Overtourism has come back to the forefront of conversations given the experience of some cities and resorts this summer.Especially as the b
134、enefits that tourism brings are not always equally distributed.Smaller lesser-known destinations,such as Albania have become more popular since the pandemic,but the volume of arrivals to these are still significantly less than more established destinations such as Greece and Spain.Countries and citi
135、es have taken measures to become more resilient to the expected continued rise in tourist volumes.These measures aim to reduce the flow of tourists in concentrated areas,spread tourists out to other destinations across the country and maximise the value they receive from tourism.Visitor value is inc
136、reasingly important to the industry as survey data continues to point towards financial conditions as the biggest challenge at a global and European level.21 Part of the issue is the uneven distribution of tourists at a city/resort level.One measure of the intensity of tourism can be defined as the
137、number of nights spent by tourists in a destination relative to the local population.This metric varies considerably across the continent and shows that a minority of cities are bearing the brunt of this influx of tourists;impacting infrastructure,residents,prices,environment(increased waste and pol
138、lution),and local services.However,it is important to note for destinations that see a larger volume of same-day tourists such as Venice and Barcelona,the nights per capita measure alone may not fully capture the level of tourism intensity experienced in these destinations.The economic impact and be
139、nefits of tourism are also not always equally distributed.For instance,there are examples of where lower-income residents are priced out of their own cities,while property-owners profit from increased destination popularity.Tourists from wealthy source markets are generally happy to pay higher price
140、s than residents,particularly when it comes to accommodation and food&beverage services,which can in turn drive prices up further.This can be particularly prevalent in low-cost destinations.But the strain faced by destinations is not consistent year-round.Annual events can play a role in seasonality
141、,such as the Edinburgh Fringe Festival which brings about a significant,though short-lived,influx of tourists for the month of August.Cruise ship dockings also exhibit a similar trend,with large influxes of visitors during the daytime,who ultimately return onboard by the evening.The value cruise tou
142、rists provide to a local economy is more limited as they receive on-board meals and accommodation,spending less in local businesses.However,cruise visitor spending is high on a per hour basis,and they are also not adding to any strain on accommodation services which are evident in some cities with l
143、imited and inelastic housing supply.On the other hand,visitors via this mode of transport do contribute to higher emissions and pollution,compared to other forms or transport and frequently increase congestion within cities,in particularly Venice.As a result,tourist movements such as these complicat
144、e the process of clearly quantifying the potential impacts of overtourism.Island destinations tend to disproportionately suffer from overtourism,given their limited ability to absorb inbound tourists,both physically and economically.It is not a surprise that a lot of destinations that have witnessed
145、 protests this summer are also islands.For example,Santorini,an island off the coast of Greece has seen significant influx of visitors as it has emerged as a(no longer)“hidden gem”,with the mayor calling to halve cruise ship visitors and cap bed nights on the island below their present level.The imp
146、acts of approaching market saturation is much more apparent in island destinations,as there is“nowhere else to go”.Tourist arrivals to selected Spanish destinations(index 2014=100)The increased prevalence of overtourism and sustainability on travellers minds appears to be feeding into destination su
147、bstitution.Examples of these substitutions can include visiting Albania instead of Greece,or at a city level going to Vilnius and Bucharest instead of Barcelona and Venice.Arrivals data over the last year has seen a greater lesser-known destinations grow more quickly than more established destinatio
148、ns,albeit in very small numbers at an absolute level.At a country level,Albania has continued to report an uptick in visitor arrivals.At a city/resort level within Spain,major destinations(such as Ibiza,Tenerife and Lanzarote)are not growing at the pace of fast-expanding,lesser-known destinations wi
149、thin the country,such as El Hierro and Sevilla.Although growth in 42444648410412414416418420142015201620172018201920202021202220232024BarcelonaEl HierroIbiza-FormenteraLanzaroteSevillaTenerife2014=100Source:Tourism Economics22 these smaller destinations is encouraging,tourism demand is rising from a
150、 small base.But it is a start in the process of improving the distribution of tourists across the country,reducing the concentration in the major hotspots.Destinations are taking varied approaches to tackle overtourism.New and existing measures largely aim to tackle the inflow of certain types of to
151、urists.An example of this is Amsterdams digital discouragement campaign,which was launched with the intention of reducing Amsterdams flow of party tourists.It can be argued that this type of tourist does not bring about as much value or benefits to the city as other tourists,and also arguably involv
152、es some higher costs such as the strain on local services to ensure the safety of tourists and cleanliness of the city.Measures have also been taken to improve the distribution of tourists.Portugal is an example of this,develop a 3,000km long circular walking route with the aim of spreading out tour
153、ists across the country along with the economic and financial benefits tourism brings.There is a balancing act with these policies,to ensure they do not significantly reduce the total number of tourists,but rather redistribute and them across more towns,cities and resorts.If successful,this would al
154、leviate pressure on previously over-visited destinations and increase the value received in alternative destinations,improving their ability to invest in their services.Overtourism will continue to evolve over time as new travel trends and preferences emerge for both domestic and international touri
155、sts.Areas that currently face pushback from the local residents will likely see a reduction in the negative impacts of tourism,as government policy develops to mitigate such issues and some travellers search for destinations further off the beaten track.Management action needs to be coupled with cha
156、nges in travel trends to ensure that the benefits of tourism continue,in the most part,to outweigh the negative impacts.4.2 The value of European tourism Latest data and forecasts suggest that tourists are expected to spend 10.3%more across Europe in 2024 compared to 2023.This equates to 719.7bn eur
157、os(nominal terms),with Western Europe alone accounting for 74%of this.Higher levels of inflation will naturally cause an increase in nominal spending,but increased demand for travel will also contribute to the rise.Although inflation across Europe has peaked,insights from surveys,including the ETC l
158、ong-haul travel barometer in Q3 2024,suggests that tourists from some source markets such as Brazil are more cost conscious when booking travel this year.Cost-conscious decision-making can take many forms including,shorter visits,lower in-destination budget and/or a reduced number of trips taken.The
159、se can all impact the value a destination gets from tourism activity.Trkiye is a recent example of this,where recovery in arrivals and nights has slowed in recent months as tourists have become more responsive to price rises and seek better value-for-money alternatives.Data from Tourism Economics Tr
160、avel Industry Monitor survey over this year has suggested that tourists are more budget-focused,and spend data is also starting to point in this direction.Among the large and established markets,Spain,Italy and France continue to post double-digit growth ahead of pre-pandemic levels,along with stron
161、g year-on-year growth from 2023.The outlook across Central and Eastern Europe remains mixed with destinations such as Slovakia struggling to achieve the same level of tourism value reported in 2019.In contrast,Latvia is currently seeing inbound travel spend 28.7%ahead of 2019 levels which is in star
162、k contrast to the recovery that is still underway in both arrivals and nights.It seems that the tourists in Latvia are spending more while they are there and to an extent that it is offsetting the fewer numbers of arrivals than in 2019.North Macedonia(53.3%)is also experiencing strong growth in inbo
163、und spend so far this year,potentially benefiting from increased demand as a less well-known destination and if they are attracting more tourists in the Gen-Z demographic,studies suggest they typically spend the most on travel.Inbound spend across selected European countries ranges from 116.7%above
164、2019 levels to-12.4%below based on data up to July this year(dates vary by country).The strong rise in arrivals into Serbia,albeit from a lower base than other destinations in Europe is also translating into triple-digit growth in inbound spend.In fact,spend is significantly higher than arrivals rel
165、ative to 2019 so far this year.The slower recovery in international travel to Germany is also reflected in expenditure,with inbound spend-3.9%less than in 2019.However,the monthly trend is looking up,giving some confidence that it will break through into growth territory in the near-future.23 Inboun
166、d travel spend in selected European destinations(%change vs 2019)Length of stay also adds to the value of tourist arrivals at a destination;a longer trip will entail more expenditure on accommodation and food,and generate more value per tourist.Out of the selected destinations below,most are current
167、ly seeing a higher average length of stay than in the same period in 2019.For the Netherlands,it is currently 16%higher,followed by Croatia(8%)and Denmark(6%).Montenegro is on the other end of the scale with significantly lower average stay by foreign tourist arrivals compared to 2019.Other destinat
168、ions facing lower average length of stays are Poland and Latvia,both of which are in Eastern Europe and in close proximity to Russias war in Ukraine.The proximity could be resulting in tourists deciding to stay in these destinations for shorter periods than they otherwise would have due to confidenc
169、e levels,but also down to a change in the type of travellers e.g.those travelling for business,leisure or to visit friends and family.Average length of stay in selected European destinations(%change vs 2019)-20-1001020304050602024 year-to-date,%change relative to 2019 lvelsSources:Haver Analytics*da

171、as its opportunities and challenges.Results from the Q3 survey continues to highlight the same top four key global challenges to tourism.If the cost of accommodation,business and flights were aggregated as financial factors,they would have represented 90%of respondents.But conditions have eased as t
172、he year has gone on,with the percentage of respondents highlighting financial factors decreasing to 88%in Q3.It did drop more in Q2 of this year,the slight increase on the quarter may be due to heightened seasonal demand.The results from European markets have shown a significantly higher percentage
173、of responses identifying the cost of accommodation as a key tourism challenge in Q3 at 74%,higher than the global figure of 62%.Many destinations in Europe are facing significant seasonal demand which can account for some,if not the majority of this quarters results.Although staffing issues improved
174、 throughout the surveys,both at a global and European level,there could still be certain areas within Europe where these issues are more significant.This is evident in frequency of strikes stemming from the air traffic industry,where the reason behind some of these have been linked to staffing short
175、ages.Top 4 key global tourism challenges Overtourism is not highlighted as a top global tourism challenge,however it is likely to be more of a challenge in selected national and sub-national destinations.The latest survey revealed that there has been a shift in public perceptions concerning overtour
176、ism and sustainable tourism.This is supported by data from Google,highlighting that there has been shift in public perceptions concerning overtourism and sustainable tourism.Comparing the prior decades search term popularity from google,there has been a gradual increase in the search popularity of s
177、ustainable tourism along with a sudden upswing in the relevance of overtourism coinciding with this summers protests.Increased awareness by businesses is one of the first steps in helping to move toward a more sustainable and responsible tourism model.In terms of opportunities,at a global level,busi
178、ness travel including bleisure,leisure events and tourism infrastructure developments were again considered the main opportunities for tourism growth.However,for European respondents,there continues to be a strong opportunity for improved connectivity/air routes and more long-haul international visi
179、tors.Many transatlantic routes were added this summer,with more to come next year.It is likely this will remain a key European opportunity for tourism going into next year,while demand from Asia-Pacific continues to improve.37%39%50%62%Staffing issuesCost of flightsIncreasing cost of businessCost of

217、iscovering new destinations but is also a result of the continued geopolitical tensions in Europe.The popularity of Trkiye as a destination has fallen slightly on last quarter across a number of source markets as it has lost some of its competitive advantage on the cost front.Southern and Mediterran

221、ume terms)of Serbia(24.4%)and by Greece(34.1%).However,data for Greece is only up to July,so the typical peak month has still not fed through into the data.Despite a strong summer performance so far,the German Travel Association(DRV)has expressed concerns about Greeces new tourism measures,which inc
222、lude increased fees for hoteliers and cruise passengers,fearing that they may deter German tourists.Some very important destinations have reached 2019 levels,at least in terms of German arrivals.Notable among these are Spain up 4.5%on 2019 but slightly down on the previous quarter.In 2019,there were
223、 more than 52 million German tourist arrivals to Spain.Trkiye remains a popular choice for German tourists compared to 2019 with arrivals ahead by 29.6%.This is despite tourists facing significantly higher prices for their summer holidays compared to the previous year.Germany has historically been o
224、ne of the largest source markets for Trkiye,so it is possible that German tourists have been less price sensitive than those from other countries.French visits and overnights to select destinations(%change on 2019)Of 31 reporting countries,16 saw growth in at least one metric from France.Cyprus for

226、ared to act as an evacuation centre for third party nationals and Lebanese citizens seeking protection.Other Mediterranean destinations such as Greece(30.9%)and Malta(26.9%)also recorded strong growth in arrivals.Denmark was the second strongest performer,registering growth in nights from France of
227、39.5%.Denmark may be benefitting from the emerging trend of summer coolcations,attracting visitors from France and Southern Europe.This trend is evident in recent survey data but is still not fully apparent in destination performance data.In contrast,the ongoing conflict in Ukraine continued to impa

229、from France to Germany continue to be lower than in 2019(down 5%).Increased affordable transport infrastructure such as the high speed train between Paris and Berlin to be launched this winter may help address this.However,France will also be affected by the threatened strike by EasyJet employees.-4

233、s been driven by the significant increase in the price of this type of holiday in Italy.According to a study undertaken by Italian consumer protection agencies,the cost of an Italian holiday in the country has risen by some 15-20%once transportation,accommodation and food are included.Potential tour
