Baromètre de l'OMT (mars 2012) : aperçu rapide des principales tendances- résultats 2011 (quick overview of key trends)
Transport :
For the global airline industry 2011 turned out to be a pretty good year overall, at least in terms of passenger traffic.
But increasing signs of weakness in the airfreight sector, which both reflects and impacts on business travel demand, are causing concern in different regions, as well as contributing to muddying the waters in terms of the outlook for 2012.
Hospitality :
Continued recovery in the hotel sector's performance.
The global hospitality industry generally had a good 2011. Room rates and revenues contunued to rise after the lows suffered in 2088-2009 - even with some substantial additions to capacity. However, with so many natural disasters, revolutions and other events around the world, and some quite dramatic shifts in exchange rates and price competitiveness, there were wide variations between the results in individual countries and individuals cities.
