Holiday Purchasing Patterns Market Assessment 2014
M2 - Tue Aug 12, 5:30AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/4zkmnv/holiday) has announced the addition of the "Holiday Purchasing Patterns Market Assessment 2014" report to their offering. Over the past 5 years several factors have led to a decline in both the UK and overseas holiday market, with the number of trips taken by domestic vacationers dropping by 0.9% overall, despite increasing in 2010, 2012 and 2013. This suggests that consumers have remained reticent regarding spending on holidays, with household budgets continuing to remain tight and consumer confidence only just beginning to return over the past year. In contrast, the value of both the overseas and domestic holiday markets increased between 2009 and 2013, rising by an estimated 8.3% and 14.5%, respectively. These value growths, however, are likely to be down to price rises across the sector, with air passenger duty (APD) and fuel costs serving to increase the value of holidays in recent years. In addition, the continued trend towards staycationing has fuelled demand for more luxury and premium-end accommodation and holiday options at home, with new formats, such as poshtels' that is posh hostels springing up across city centres throughout the UK, thus driving up prices in certain areas of the market. In the overseas markets, core destinations, such as France and Spain, continued to remain popular among UK holidaymakers, with trips to the two countries accounting for 43.9% of total visits abroad during 2013.

In 2012, Expenditure on Travel and Tourism by UK Residents, both Domestically and Overseas, Grew By 4.2%
M2 - Fri Mar 07, 5:00AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/dktvv7/travel_agents_and) has announced the addition of the "Travel Agents & Overseas Tour Operators Market Report 2013" report to their offering. The UK travel and tourism industry has suffered significantly during the financial difficulties, with recessionary pressures and the wider uncertain global economic conditions resulting in declining consumer expenditure across all UK industries. The UK travel and tourism market is comprised of two main sectors: outbound tourism and domestic tourism. In terms of expenditure, outbound tourism represents the most significant sector, making up 57.4% of all expenditure in 2012. However, with depressed consumer expenditure in recent years, the gap between the two sectors has shrunk. One of the major issues currently affecting travel agents and tour operators, and in fact the entire travel and tourism industry, is the rising cost of air travel. Alongside inflation-related price increases, UK air travel is subject to one of the highest air taxes in the world, in the form of Air Passenger Duty (APD). In addition, in 2012, air travel activities by European airlines were brought under the scope of the EU Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS), a cap-and-trade scheme on carbon emissions. This high rate of taxation, particularly in comparison with other countries, can ultimately reduce the attractiveness of the UK as a holiday destination and, equally, discourage UK residents from travelling abroad. Over the short term, both domestic and outbound tourism is expected to be subdued, with weak volume growth between 2013 and 2015. However, as economic conditions improve and consumer confidence builds in the medium to long term, both in the UK and overseas, tourism volumes are expected to experience increasingly significant growth.

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/r8mb35/travel_agents_and) has announced the addition of the "Travel Agents & Overseas Tour Operators Market Report 2013" report to their offering. The UK travel and tourism industry has suffered significantly during the financial difficulties, with recessionary pressures and the wider uncertain global economic conditions resulting in declining consumer expenditure across all UK industries. However, Key Note estimates that, in 2012, expenditure on travel and tourism by UK residents, both domestically and overseas, grew by 4.2%. The UK travel and tourism market is comprised of two main sectors: outbound tourism and domestic tourism. In terms of expenditure, outbound tourism represents the most significant sector, making up 57.4% of all expenditure in 2012. However, with depressed consumer expenditure in recent years, the gap between the two sectors has shrunk. Despite the expected recovery in the sector in 2012, the outbound market has suffered considerably as a result of the economic recession, with double-digit declines recorded in both the total number of trips and total expenditure on overseas visits by UK residents over the last 5 years. In the domestic sector, however, the market has performed strongly, with growth in both volume and value over the last 5 years. This trend is again attributable to the adverse economic conditions, with consumers increasingly opting out of cost-intensive overseas holidays in favour of cheaper domestic trips.
