Overview of Plunkett's Travel, Airline, Hotel & Tourism Industry coverage | |
The travel and tourism industry has been through exceptional upheaval and change. After reeling from the effects of the September 11, 2001 tragedies, the travel business is now emerging as a more streamlined, efficient and focused industry. Passenger bookings have rebounded in both leisure travel and business travel. Many of the biggest, most successful firms are becoming extremely global in nature. Meanwhile, discount airlines such as Southwest Airlines, AirTran and JetBlue continue to enjoy exceptional success.
On the hotel side, massive management firms, development companies and real estate investment trusts are gaining in scale and influence, while occupancy levels and room prices are rising. New hotels are being built at a rapid clip, and luxury hotels are enjoying high occupancy rates.
The booking of travel online is perhaps the most successful niche of all of the world's e-commerce efforts. Consumers use the Internet to become better informed and to seek bargains. Online sites like Expedia, Priceline and Orbitz steer millions of consumers toward specific airlines and hotels in a manner that lowers prices and improves satisfaction among consumers.
This carefully-researched book (which includes a database of leading companies on CD-ROM) is a complete travel and tourism market research and business intelligence tool-- everything you need to know about the business of hotels, resorts, airlines, discount airlines, Internet travel sites, cruise lines, travel agencies and more, including:
