1 International tourism - strongest half-year results since 2010 Destinations worldwide welcomed 598 million international tourists in the first six months of 2017, some 36 million more than in the same period of 2016. At 6%, growth was well above the trend of recent years, making the current January- June period the strongest half-year since 2010. Visitor numbers reported by destinations around the world reflect strong demand for international travel in the first half of 2017, as reported in this issue of the UNWTO World Tourism Barometer. Worldwide, international tourist arrivals (overnight visitors) increased by 6% compared to the same six-month period last year, well above the sustained and consistent trend of 4% or higher growth since 2010.

International tourism - strongest half-year results since 2010 Destinations worldwide welcomed 598 million international tourists in the first six months of 2017, some 36 million more than in the same period of 2016. At 6%, growth was well above the trend of recent years, making the current January-June period the strongest half-year since 2010.

Visitor numbers reported by destinations around the world reflect strong demand for international travel in the first half of 2017, as reported in this issue of the UNWTO World Tourism Barometer. Worldwide, international tourist arrivals (overnight visitors) increased by 6% compared to the same six-month period last year, well above the sustained and consistent trend of 4% or higher growth since 2010. This represents the strongest half-year in seven years.

The UNWTO World Tourism Barometer is a publication of the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO). By monitoring short-term tourism trends on a regular basis, UNWTO aims to provide all those involved, directly or indirectly, in tourism with adequate up-to-date statistics and analysis in a timely fashion. The UNWTO World Tourism Barometer is periodically updated. Issues contain as regular sections: an overview of short-term tourism data from destinations, generating countries and air transport; the results of the latest survey among the UNWTO Panel of Tourism Experts, providing an evaluation of and prospects for short-term tourism performance; and selected economic data relevant for tourism. The objective for future editions of the UNWTO World Tourism Barometer will be to broaden its scope and improve coverage gradually over time. The UNWTO World Tourism Barometer is prepared by UNWTO’s Tourism Market Trends Programme.

2017 International Year of Sustainable Tourism for Development

The United Nations 70th General Assembly has designated 2017 as the International Year of Sustainable Tourism for Development (www.un.org/en/ga/search/view_doc.asp?symbol=A/RES/70/193).

This is a unique opportunity to raise awareness of the contribution of sustainable tourism to development among public and private sector decision-makers and the public, while mobilizing all stakeholders to work together in making tourism a catalyst for positive change.

In the context of the universal 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the International Year aims to support a change in policies, business practices and consumer behavior towards a more sustainable tourism sector than can contribute to the SDGs. The #IY2017 will promote tourism’s role in the following five key areas: (1) Inclusive and sustainable economic growth (2) Social inclusiveness, employment and poverty reduction (3) Resource efficiency, environmental protection and climate change (4) Cultural values, diversity and heritage (5) Mutual understanding, peace and security. The World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), the United Nations Specialized Agency for Tourism, has been mandated to facilitate the organization and implementation of the International Year, in collaboration with governments, relevant organizations of the United Nations system, international and regional organizations and other relevant stakeholders.

[Continuation from page 1] needs to be managed efficiently, for the good of visitors and host communities alike. This year we celebrate the International Year of Sustainable Tourism for Development (IY2017) to remind destinations and travellers that we must work for a sustainable tourism sector that protects the environment, preserves the cultural heritage of destinations, and fosters respect for local communities everywhere,” Rifai added. (http://crm.unwto.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=76680) Mediterranean destinations lead growth Mediterranean destinations reported particularly strong growth in the first half of 2017, as reflected in the results for Southern and Mediterranean Europe (+12%), North Africa (+16%) and the Middle East (+9%). This trend is driven by the continued strength of many destinations in the area, combined with a significant rebound in destinations that suffered decreases in previous years, such as Turkey, Egypt and Tunisia.

Furthermore, international tourist arrivals through June grew 8% in Northern Europe, 6% in Western Europe and 4% in Central and Eastern Europe. Sub-Saharan Africa recorded 4% more arrivals. South Asia (+12%) led growth in Asia and the Pacific, followed by Oceania (+8%) and South-East Asia (+7%), while results in North-East Asia (+4%) were more mixed. The Americas continued to enjoy positive results across most destinations. Growth was solid in South America (+6%), Central America (+5%) and the Caribbean (+4%). In North America (+2%), robust results for Mexico and Canada were partly offset by a decrease in arrivals to the United States, the region’s largest destination. Arrivals growth in this period was fuelled by strong outbound demand from major source markets. In particular, Canada, China, France, the Republic of Korea, Spain, the United Kingdom and the United States continued to report solid growth in outbound expenditure. This first half-year also saw a strong recovery in demand from Brazil and the Russian Federation after a few years of declines in terms of expenditure abroad.

Inbound tourism: short-term trends 2017

Strongest half-year results for international tourism in seven years Based on data reported so far by destinations around

the world it is estimated that international tourist

arrivals (overnight visitors) worldwide grew 6% in the

first half of 2017 compared the same period last year,

well above the sustained and consistent trend of 4% or

higher growth since 2010. This represents the strongest

half-year results in seven years and reflects robust

demand for international travel in the first six months

of 2017. Results are underpinned by continued robust

growth in many destinations and a recovery in those

that suffered declines in previous years. By UNWTO

region, growth was strongest in the Middle East (+9%),

Europe (+8%) and Africa (+8%), followed by Asia and

the Pacific (+6%) and the Americas (+3%).

16/15 17*/16 Jan - Jun

A total of 139 countries have so far reported data on

international tourist arrivals for three or more months of

2017 (out of 220). Of these, 115 countries (83%) reported

an increase in arrivals, with 61 (44%) reporting double-

digit growth, while 24 countries (17%) posted a decrease in

arrivals. A total of 107 countries have reported results for

at least the first half of 2017, of which 50 through July.

Based on this sample of destinations, it is estimated

that destinations worldwide received 598 million inter-

national tourist arrivals between January and June 2017, up

36 million from the 562 million in the same period of

2016. This corresponds to a robust 6% increase compared

to the same period last year, making the current January-

June period the strongest half-year since 2010.

This positive trend also reflects a firming of the global

economic recovery, with higher prospects for 2017 in

many advanced and emerging economies, including the

United States, the Euro area, Japan, India, the Russian

Federation and Brazil, according to the World Economic

Outlook Update of July 2017 by the International

Monetary Fund (IMF). Global output is projected to grow

by 3.5% in 2017 after 3.1% in 2016. Stronger economic

conditions contribute to higher demand for both inter-

national business and leisure travel, which in turn is

reflected in international tourist arrivals and receipts in

destination countries.

Extraordinary pace of growth in Mediterranean destinations

Mediterranean destinations reported particularly strong

growth in the first half of 2017, with remarkably robust

results in North Africa (+16%), Southern and

Mediterranean Europe (+12%), and the Middle East

(+9%). This trend is driven by the continued strength of

many destinations, combined with a sound recovery in

others that had reported declines in earlier years, such as

Turkey, Egypt and Tunisia.

Furthermore in Europe (+8%), Northern Europe

(+8%), Western Europe (+6%) and Central and Eastern

Europe (+4%) also recorded solid results. Within Africa

(+8%), Sub-Saharan Africa recorded 4% more arrivals.

South Asia (+12%) led growth in Asia and the Pacific

(+6%), with subregions Oceania (+8%) and South-East

Asia (+7%) also growing firmly this period. Results in

North-East Asia (+4%) were more mixed.

The Americas (+3%) continued to enjoy positive

results across most destinations. South America (+6%),

Central America (+5%) and the Caribbean (+4%) all

showed solid results, while in North America (+2%),

robust growth in Mexico and Canada contrasts with a

decrease in the United States, the region’s largest

destination.

Growth in arrivals this period was also driven by

strong outbound demand from major source markets. In

particular, Canada, China, France, the Republic of Korea,

Spain, the United Kingdom and the United States

continued to report solid growth in outbound expenditure.

This first half of the year also saw a strong recovery in

demand from Brazil and the Russian Federation after a few

years of declines in terms of expenditure abroad.

Of the first six months, growth was highest in April

(+14%) and weakest in March (+2%) as the Easter period

shifted from March last year to April this year. The first

half of the year usually accounts for about 46% of total

annual international arrivals, as the second half is longer by

three days and includes the Northern Hemisphere high

season months of July and August.

The short-term outlook for international tourism

remains largely positive, with growth expected to be

maintained in the second half of 2017. Results from the 50

countries that have already reported data up to July or

August indicate that growth is continuing at a healthy rate.

The pace of growth might moderate slightly, though, as the

peak season months tend to show slower growth than the

shoulder season months.

This robust trend and prospects are also reflected in

the latest international air travel data, as reported by

business intelligence tool ForwardKeys (see pages 19-21).

International flight departures increased 8% in May-

August 2017, after growing 6% in January-April, with

strong demand also expected for the remainder of the year.

International reservations for September-December 2017

are 8% higher than the same period last year, at this

moment in time.

These preliminary results for international tourist

arrivals (+6% in January-June) so far exceed UNWTO’s

forecast of 3% to 4% growth for 2017, published in the

January edition of the UNWTO World Tourism Barometer.

Note: All results presented in this issue are based on

preliminary data as reported by the various destinations

around the world and UNWTO estimates of still missing

data. Updated information on the current year will be

included in the next issue of the UNWTO World Tourism

Barometer scheduled for October.

International tourism receipts

Major world destinations enjoy solid growth in earnings

With few exceptions, year to date figures on

international tourism receipts confirm the largely

positive trend recorded in arrivals in the first half of

2017.

Preliminary data on international tourism receipts

have been reported by 127 countries and territories so

far, of which 54 for the first six months of 2017. Of

the reporting destinations, a total of 101 or 80%

posted growth in earnings compared to the same

period last year (in local currencies at current prices),

of which 47 (37%) in double digits, while 26 (20%)

reported declines. This indicates that earnings mostly

followed the upward trend seen in arrivals. The

median increase was 7%.

Results reported by the top 10 tourism earners were

fairly strong. The highest growth was recorded by

Spain (the world’s second largest earner) which

enjoyed a 12% increase in receipts through June 2017,

following 7% growth in the full year 2016. The

United Kingdom (7th largest earner) reported 11%

growth in receipts through March, while Australia

(10th) posted a 10% increase in the first half of the

year. Thailand (3rd) recorded 8% growth this period,

after an increase of 15% in 2016. France (5th) also

posted an increase of 8% through June, rebounding

from last year’s decline in receipts.

Of the remaining five destinations in the top 10, four

reported growth in tourism receipts and one a decline.

The United States (the world’s top earner) and

Germany (8th) both reported 4% growth in tourism

earnings in the first six months of 2017, while Italy

(6th) posted 3% growth. China (4th) recorded an

increase of 2% in the first quarter, and Hong Kong

(China) a small 1% decline in the first half of the year.

A number of other important destinations beyond the

top 10 enjoyed strong growth in receipts in the first

three to six months of 2017, mostly in line with the

trend in arrivals. The Russian Federation enjoyed a

strong 29% increase in receipts, rebounding after three

years of declines. Qatar reported 27% growth in the

first quarter and Portugal 21% through June, both

following solid results in 2016. Indonesia and India

both enjoyed a 17% increase this first half of 2017,

while Israel posted 16% growth. Strong results were

also reported by Macao (China), with 18% growth in

earnings, following two years of decline. Singapore

and Poland (through March) both posted 12% growth.

Other destinations enjoying double-digit growth in

earnings this period were Canada, the Dominican

Republic and Mexico, all three in the Americas and all

posting 10% growth.

Other top performers this period were Sweden, Japan,

the Czech Republic, Greece and Colombia, all

reporting growth rates between 7% and 9% in

international tourism earnings.

Note that some of this data is likely to be revised later in

the year.

For a full list of the 50 top spenders see tables on pages

11-12 of the Statistical Annex. For other countries and

territories with available data see the tables on the regions

on pages 16-24.

Volume 15 • August 2017

International tourism expenditure

Robust growth in tourism spending in the first half of 2017

Preliminary data on international tourism expenditure

for the first part of 2017 reflect an increasing demand

from major source markets, consistent with the robust

6% growth in international arrivals. These results have

been triggered by the continuing strong performance of

many outbound markets worldwide, as well as by the

recovery of important tourism spenders such as Brazil

and the Russian Federation.

So far, 46 out of the top 50 outbound markets have

reported preliminary data on international tourism

expenditure for the first three to six months of 2017.

Among these, 24 already reported data for the half

year. For most of the remaining countries the second

quarter is due for the last part of September.

Out of the countries with data, 36 (78%) reported an

increase in spending (in local currencies at current

prices), 12 of which in double digits (26%), while 10

(22%) saw declines. The median increase was 6%.

China, the world’s top source market, reported 9%

growth in tourism expenditure in the first quarter of

2017, reflecting an increasing demand for inter-

national travel. The United States, the world’s second

largest market, recorded a 6% increase, and the third

largest market, Germany 3%, both through June. The

United Kingdom (4th largest) reported 8% growth in

spending in the first quarter of the year. Tourism

spending from France (5th largest) increased 11% in

the first half of 2017.

The Republic of Korea posted 16% growth through

June, the highest among the first 10 source markets.

Of the remaining markets in the top 10, Canada

reported a 7% increase in tourism spending,

rebounding after flat growth in 2016. Italy and Hong

Kong (China) both recorded 5% growth. By contrast,

Australia saw a modest 1% increase in expenditure.

Beyond the top 10, growth in spending rebounded

remarkably in Brazil (+35%) and the Russian

Federation (+26%) after some years of declines. The

recovery of the Russian Federation is expected to have

fuelled arrival growth to its main destinations markets,

such as Turkey and Egypt.

Furthermore, double-digit growth in spending this

first half of 2017 was also reported by Argentina

(+21%), Spain (+17%), Vietnam (+16%) and Portugal

(+13%), New Zealand (+12%), Ireland (+11%),

Indonesia and Japan (both +10%).

Other markets that showed robust demand for

outbound travel this period were Ukraine (+9%),

Thailand, the Czech Republic (both +8%), Taiwan

(province of China) and Austria (both +7%). As with

receipts, some of this expenditure data is likely to be

revised.

For a full list of 50 top spenders see tables on pages 13-14

of the Statistical Annex.

Regional results

Remarkable pace of growth in Europe

International arrivals in Europe, the world’s most visited

region, grew 8% in the first six months of 2017, a

remarkable pace of growth considering the maturity and

size of many destinations. Growth follows a more modest

2% increase in 2016 and reflect a clear rebound in destina-

tions that suffered decreases in previous years, such as

Turkey, France and Belgium, combined with a particularly

strong performance of destinations in Southern and Medi-

terranean Europe (+12%). Northern Europe (+8%) and

Western Europe (+6%) also recorded solid results, while

Central and Eastern Europe (+3%) was more mixed.

Demand was strong from markets both in and outside the

region, with intraregional markets boosted by the

strengthening of the ongoing economic recovery in Europe.

Southern and Mediterranean Europe (+12%) led

growth in the region this first half of 2017, following

weaker results in 2016 (+1%). Turkey (+24%) returned to

growth, recovering from last year’s decline in arrivals due

to several security incidents. Portugal (+13%) and the

subregion’s top destination Spain (+11%) continued to

boast double-digit growth after similar results in 2016.

Italy, the subregion’s second largest destination, and

Greece both reported 7% growth in arrivals this period.

Balkan destinations Croatia (+25%), Montenegro (+20%),

Serbia and Slovenia (both +19%), Bosnia & Herzegovina

(+17%) and FYR Macedonia (+13%) all posted double-

digit growth. Israel (+24%) also performed strongly, as did

island destinations Malta (+19%) and Cyprus (+15%).

Most destinations in Northern Europe (+8%) reported

strong results as well. The United Kingdom, the

subregion’s largest destination, recorded a 9% increase in

international arrivals following the depreciation of the

British pound after the vote to leave the European Union

(Brexit) last year. Among the Nordic countries, Iceland

(+22%) continues to benefit from the ongoing promotion

efforts and increase in capacity. Finland (+15%) also

reported double-digit growth, while in Sweden and

Denmark arrivals grew by 8% and 7% respectively.

International arrivals in Western Europe (+6%)

rebounded in the first half of 2017 following last year’s flat

results (0%). Growth was driven by the recovery of the

subregion’s top destination France as well as Belgium

(both +10%) from last year’s decline in the aftermath of

various terrorist attacks. The Netherlands also reported a

robust 10% increase following sound results in 2016, while

Switzerland reported 7% growth and Austria and Germany

both 5%.

Most destinations in Central and Eastern Europe

(+4%) recorded strong results in the first half of 2017,

while a few saw declines. Armenia (+24%), Kazakhstan

(+21%), Moldova (+18%), Georgia (+17%), the Czech

Republic, Latvia (both +13%), Romania (+12%) and

Bulgaria (+10%) all enjoyed double-digit growth in inter-

national arrivals this period. By contrast, the Russian

Federation (-8% in the first quarter of 2017), the

subregion’s largest destination, and Hungary (-2%) both

reported a decrease in arrivals.

South Asia boasts highest growth in Asia and the Pacific

Asia and the Pacific recorded 6% growth in international

arrivals in the first half of 2017 compared to the same

period last year. This follows a 9% increase in the full year

2016, the highest across world regions. All four Asian

subregions performed well this January-June period,

particularly South Asia, where arrivals increased 12%.

Oceania recorded 8% growth, South-East Asia 7% and

North-East Asia 4%. Outbound travel from China, the

Republic of Korea and Japan fuelled much of this growth.

In several destinations relaxed visa rules or exemptions for

Chinese visitors contributed to results.

Asia’s largest subregion, North-East Asia recorded 4%

growth in international tourist arrivals in the first six

months of 2017, driven by strong results in Japan (+17%).

Japan has been one of the fastest growing destinations this

decade, with arrivals almost tripling between 2010 and

2016, and this growth spurt is still continuing. Macao

(China) also performed strongly, with arrivals increasing

13% compared to the same period last year. Hong Kong

(China) reported 5% more arrivals, while Taiwan (pr. of

China) saw a 5% decline. The Republic of Korea also

reported a 21% decline in international tourists this period,

mostly due to lesser arrivals from China, though following

strong growth in 2016. Data for China, the region’s largest

destination, is still pending.

International arrivals in South Asia increased 12% in

January-June, led by India, the subregion’s largest

destination, which boasted 15% growth. Nepal reported a

remarkable 42% increase this period, after similar growth

last year, in a swift recovery after the decline in 2015

following the Gorkha and Kodari earthquakes. If the

current trend continues, Nepal could exceed its 2012

record of 803 million arrivals at the end of this year.

Maldives recorded an increase of 6% in arrivals, with

robust demand from European markets, while Sri Lanka

posted 4% growth. Smaller destination Bhutan recorded

15% more arrivals, after seven straight years of double

digit growth.

Oceania (+8%) also enjoyed substantial growth, with

New Zealand (+8%), and Australia (+7%) driving results

this part of the year. Among smaller destinations, the

Northern Mariana Islands boasted 35% growth, fuelled by

strong demand from Korea and increased flight

connections with several Asian cities. Fiji reported a 6%

increase in arrivals.

In South-East Asia (+7%) results were driven by

Vietnam (+30%), Indonesia (+15%), Philippines and

Cambodia (both +13%), fuelled by strong demand from

North-East Asian source markets. Vietnam’s growth

follows a similarly strong increase in 2016 (+26%), while

the Philippines builds on two consecutive years of double-

digit growth. The subregion’s largest destination, Thailand

recorded a 4% increase in arrivals, as did Singapore. By

contrast, Malaysia reported a small 1% decline.

Healthy growth across most destinations in the Americas

The Americas continued to enjoy positive results across

most destinations in the first half of 2017, with

international arrivals up 3%. South America (+6%) and

Central America (+5%) led growth, followed by the

Caribbean (+4%). Results in North America (+2%) were

weighed down by a 4% decrease in arrivals in the United

States, the region’s largest destination. Strong US

outbound flows continued to fuel growth across the region,

thanks to a robust US dollar and economy. An increase in

air connectivity also attracted more tourists from overseas

markets to the region.

In South America (+6%), Uruguay (+27%), Colombia

(+20%), Chile (+17%) and Paraguay (+12%) boasted

double-digit growth. Intraregional demand remained strong

with outbound tourism from Brazil and Argentina on the

rise. Arrivals in Ecuador (+9%) rebounded, while Peru

recorded 4% more arrivals. Inbound data for 2017 from

major destinations Brazil and Argentina have not yet been

reported.

Nicaragua (+26%) and Guatemala (+13%) led results

in Central America (+5%). Costa Rica, the subregion's

largest destination, reported a 3% increase in arrivals,

while the second largest, Panama, suffered a 10% decline.

Belize (+8%), El Salvador (+6%) and Honduras (+3%)

recorded positive results as well.

The Caribbean (+4%) saw solid performance in major

destination the Dominican Republic (+6%), while Jamaica

(+4%) and Puerto Rico (+3%) also posted positive results.

Data for Cuba is still pending, but the trend is reportedly

also upward. Results in smaller island destinations were

more mixed. Growth in Dominica (+15%), Bermuda

(+13%), Barbados and Saint Lucia (both +8%) was above

the subregional average, while other small Caribbean

islands reported weaker growth.

In North America (+2%), Mexico (+12%) and Canada

(+6%) continued to enjoy strong demand from the US, as

well as from overseas markets. By contrast, the United

States itself reported a 4% decline in the first quarter of

2017, with arrivals from Canada up, but declines from

Mexico and the majority of overseas markets in Europe,

the Middle East and Latin America.

Solid rebound in North Africa drives region’s results

International arrivals to destinations in Africa are estimated

to have increased by 8% in the first half of 2017, thus

maintaining the momentum of 2016 (+8%). Growth was

driven by a rebound in North Africa (+16%), with the

recovery that started in the second half of 2016 continuing

in Tunisia (+27%) and growth picking up in Morocco

(+9%).

Arrivals to Subsaharan Africa (+4%) increased more

moderately. Healthy growth in many destinations was

partly offset by weaker results in major destination South

Africa (+1%). Island destinations Seychelles (+20%),

Reunion (+15%), Cabo Verde (+8%), Mauritius (+6%) and

Madagascar (+4%) all recorded positive results. Kenya

(+11%) continued the rebound that began last year.

Zimbabwe reported a 6% increase in the first quarter and

Swaziland 4% in the first half of the year. (Sub)regional

results for Africa should be read with caution, though, as

they are based on data reported by a comparatively small

number of countries.

Continued growth and recovery in the Middle East

Available data in the Middle East (+9%) point to a rebound

in international arrivals after a 3% decline in 2016. Egypt

(+52%) experienced a strong recovery in arrivals after the

decrease suffered in 2016. Improved security and promo-

tional efforts contributed to this rebound. Palestine

reported a 58% increase in the first quarter, recovering

from two years of negative growth. Oman (+16%),

Lebanon (+12%) and Dubai (United Arab Emirates)

(+10%) all recorded double-digit growth as well, while

Jordan (+9% in the first quarter) came close. By contrast,

Qatar (-7%) started to report negative results following the

diplomatic crisis with various countries in the region. Data

is still pending from the region’s largest destination Saudi

Arabia, and this could change the estimate for the region.

Note: All results presented in this issue are based on

preliminary data as reported by the various destinations

around the world and UNWTO estimates of still missing

data. Updated information will be included in the next

issue of the UNWTO World Tourism Barometer scheduled

for October.

Air transport booking trends

Air transport data confirms strength in tourism demand

In this contribution, air passenger travel is analysed for

the periods January to April and May to August 2017,

based on air transport booking data from business

intelligence tool ForwardKeys. Travel demand for the

last part of the year is also assessed based on flight

reservations for the period September to December

2017.

The analysis reflects passenger air transport data

available in the ForwardKeys database as of 31 August

2017, covering actual departures in the periods January

to April and May to August, as well as bookings with a

scheduled departure date between 1 September and 31

December 2017. Bookings are compared to those for the

same four months in 2016, available in the database at

the same moment in time a year ago. Note that booking

data provides an indication of short-term trends, but

does not necessarily reflect the exact growth in trips

that will be taken, as booking behaviour can vary over

time. Lead time between booking and actual travel

decreases or increases depending on external factors,

price development and promotion.

International flight departures increased 8% in

May-August 2017, after growing 6% in January-April,

well above the 4% growth rate of 2016. Demand for air

travel remains strong for the remainder of the year,

with international reservations up 8% for September-

December 2017, compared to the same period last year.

General Trend

International departures grew by 8% in May to August

2017

International departures increased 8% in May-August

2017 compared to the same period last year, after

growing 6% in January-April, well above the 4%

increase in the full year 2016.

These results are consistent with the robust trend for the

first half of 2017 (+6%) seen in international tourist

arrivals reported by destinations around the world, as

analysed in the first part of this UNWTO World Tourism

Barometer.

Air travel within regions (intraregional) was as strong

as travel to other regions (interregional), both

increasing 8% in May-August.

Inbound travel has so far grown most in Europe, both in

May-August (+12%) and in January-April (+8%).

Africa & the Middle East recorded 9% growth in May-

August and 7% in January-April, the Americas 6% and

5% respectively, and Asia and the Pacific 5% and 4%.

All regions recorded stronger growth in outbound travel

in May-August than in January-April.

Domestic air travel was up 6% in both four-month

periods, reflecting sustained demand in a few large

domestic markets, mostly in Europe and Asia and the

Pacific. (Note that domestic air travel is dominated by a

small number of large markets, including the United

States, China, Brazil, the Russian Federation, Japan,

India and Australia, which together account for some

80% of domestic travel globally measured in kilometers

flown, according to IATA).

Bookings 8% higher in September-December 2017

As of 31 August, international bookings for departures

scheduled for September to December were up 8%

Air transport booking data The information on air travel trends contained in this section has been kindly provided by Forward Data SL leveraging exclusively on the ForwardKeys® database. ForwardKeys® is a business intelligence tool designed to help decision-makers in hotel chains, Destination Management Organizations and other industry professionals. The ForwardKeys.com database is fed daily with Air reservation information (GDS) processed by 200,000 online and off-line Travel agencies worldwide, for a total of approximately 14 million daily transactions. The database does not include some direct bookings with airlines (such as Low Cost Carriers) or charter flights. Methodological note Figures are based on full journey from the original city of departure to final destination (not intermediate stops or connections). Transit passengers, those returning to their point of departure have been excluded from this analysis. Figures have been normalised in order to isolate GDS-perimeter changes; periodic revisions of past figures will be carried in order to guarantee stability of the GDS perimeter. Actual Departures: Air reservations from all source markets to all destinations with effective travel date prior to 31 August 2017. Expected Departures: Accumulated reservations until 31st August 2017 with travelling date between 1 September and 31 December 2017.

Volume 15 • August 2017 – Statistical Annex

The UNWTO World Tourism Barometer is a publication of the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO). By monitoring short-term tourism trends on a regular basis, UNWTO aims to provide all those involved, directly or indirectly, in tourism with adequate up-to-date statistics and analysis in a timely fashion. The UNWTO World Tourism Barometer is periodically updated. Issues contain as regular sections: an overview of short-term tourism data from destinations, generating countries and air transport; the results of the latest survey among the UNWTO Panel of Tourism Experts, providing an evaluation of and prospects for short-term tourism performance; and selected economic data relevant for tourism. The objective for future editions of the UNWTO World Tourism Barometer will be to broaden its scope and improve coverage gradually over time. The UNWTO World Tourism Barometer is prepared by UNWTO’s Tourism Market Trends Programme. The UNWTO Secretariat wishes to express its sincere gratitude to all those who have participated in the elaboration of the UNWTO World Tourism Barometer, in particular all institutions that supplied data, and to the members of the UNWTO Panel of Tourism Experts for their valuable contributions. For more information on the UNWTO World Tourism Barometer, including copies of previous issues, please refer to the Facts & Figures section on the UNWTO website at mkt.unwto.org. We welcome your comments and suggestions at [email protected], tel.: +34 915678198 / fax: +34 915713733.

The monthly or quarterly statistics included in this issue have been compiled by the UNWTO Secretariat based on preliminary data as disseminated by the institutions (e.g. National Tourism Authorities, Statistics Offices, Central Banks) of the various countries and territories through websites, news releases, and bulletins, or provided through direct contacts with officials or through international organisations such as the Caribbean Tourism Organization (CTO), the European Travel Commission (ETC), Eurostat, the Pacific Asia Travel Association (PATA) or the South Pacific Tourism Organization (SPTO). Information in this issue reflects data available at the time of preparing the UNWTO World Tourism Barometer. Whenever necessary, updated data will be included over time as it becomes available and without further notice. In the tables on International Tourist Arrivals for the various UNWTO regions, series are chosen that can serve as an indicator of trends in tourism development to selected destinations. The monthly series represented do not coincide in all cases with the annual series usually reported for the various countries (e.g. visitor arrivals or nights instead of tourist arrivals) and sometimes only relate to a part of the total tourism flow (e.g. air traffic, specific entry points). Please refer to the box on page ‘Annex-1’ for further explanations. The (sub)regional totals are approximations for the whole (sub)region prepared by UNWTO based on trends in the countries with data available.

Countries that are not included in this overview, but which have monthly data at their disposal, are kindly requested to contact the UNWTO Secretariat at [email protected].

The World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) is the United Nations specialized agency mandated with the promotion of responsible, sustainable and universally accessible tourism. UNWTO’s membership includes 157 countries, 6 Associate Members, two Permanent Observers, and over 500 Affiliate Members representing the private sector, educational institutions, tourism associations and local tourism authorities.

Page 37: International Tourist Arrivals, evolution by half year 2017* · International tourism - strongest half-year results since 2010 Destinations worldwide welcomed 598 million international

Volume 15 • August 2017 – Statistical Annex

About receipts and expenditure data For destination countries, receipts from international tourism count as exports and cover all transactions related to the consumption by international visitors of, for example, accommodation, food and drink, fuel, domestic transport, entertainment, shopping, etc. They include transactions generated by same-day as well as overnight visitors. Receipts from same-day visitors can be substantial, espe-cially in the case of neighbouring countries where a lot of shopping for goods and services is carried out by cross-border, same-day visitors. However, the values reported as international tourism receipts do not include receipts from international passenger transport contracted from companies outside the travellers’ countries of residence, which are reported in a separate category. With financial data measured in different currencies it is complicated to accurately determine variations in relative terms, as receipts have to be expressed in a common currency like the US dollar or the euro and generally are also reported at current prices, thus not taking account of exchange rate fluctuations and inflation. Exchange rate changes can substantially influence the values in US dollars reported from year to year. When the dollar appreciates against for instance the euro, worldwide receipts expressed in dollars relatively decrease, and vice versa in the case the dollar depreciates. In 2015, the US dollar (and pegged currencies such as from various destinations in the Caribbean and the Middle East or Hong Kong (China) and Macao (China)) appreciated against virtually all other currencies, including the euro. Versus the euro the appreciation was 20% on average for the year (see table below), so expressed in US dollar terms, values in euro were some 16% lower than in the previous year (i.e. x 100/119.7). In 2016, the US dollar and the euro maintained virtually the same average exchange rate for the year, but both appreciated against some other currencies, most notably the British Pound. So expressed in US dollar terms, values in euro were equal to the previous year.

Exchange rate US$ to euro and vice versa, average for the year US$ to euro Change (%) euro to US$ Change (%)

2005 0.8038 1.2441 2006 0.7964 -0.9 1.2556 0.9 2007 0.7297 -8.4 1.3705 9.2 2008 0.6799 -6.8 1.4708 7.3 2009 0.7169 5.4 1.3948 -5.2 2010 0.7543 5.2 1.3257 -5.0 2011 0.7184 -4.8 1.3920 5.0 2012 0.7783 8.3 1.2848 -7.7 2013 0.7530 -3.3 1.3281 3.4 2014 0.7527 0.0 1.3285 0.0 2015 0.9013 19.7 1.1095 -16.5 2016 0.9034 0.2 1.1069 -0.2

In order to account for exchange rate changes and inflation, international tourism receipts expressed in US dollar values (for reason of comparison) were converted back to the local currencies of each destination, weighted by the share in the total, and deflated by the relevant rate of inflation. Although in this way data are made comparable, care should nevertheless be taken in interpreting the trends, as statistics, in most cases, are still provisional and subject to revision. For the totals, estimates are made by UNWTO for countries that have not yet reported results, based on the previous year’s value and the trend for the (sub)region. Unlike arrivals, where revisions generally more or less balance out, receipts data tends to be revised upwards.

Air transport booking data

The information on air travel trends contained in this section has been kindly provided by Forward Data SL leveraging exclusively on the ForwardKeys® database.

ForwardKeys® is a business intelligence tool designed to help decision-makers in hotel chains, Destination Management Organizations and other industry professionals. The ForwardKeys.com database is fed daily with Air reservation information (GDS) processed by 200,000 online and off-line Travel agencies worldwide, for a total of approximately 14 million daily transactions. The database does not include some direct bookings with airlines (such as Low Cost Carriers) or charter flights.

Methodological note

Figures are based on full journey from the original city of departure to final destination (not intermediate stops or connections). Transit passengers, those returning to their point of departure have been excluded from this analysis.

Figures have been normalised in order to isolate GDS-perimeter changes; periodic revisions of past figures will be carried in order to guarantee stability of the GDS perimeter

Actual departures: Air reservations from all source markets to all destinations with effective travel date prior to 31 August 2017.

Expected departures: Accumulated reservations until 31 August 2017 with travelling date between 1 September and 31 December 2017.
