This 4D Focus quarterly report uses global data sourced from FCM corporate bookings made offline, online (via OBT), GDS and non-GDS bookings during April to June 2017 (Q2 2017). The average room rates (ARR) quoted are booked rates (excluding taxes). Variations in rates booked are a reflection of season, supply and demand, corporate buying behaviour and availability.

Unless otherwise stated USD$ is reported.

London’s devaluation of the pound during 2016 is said to have stimulated an 8% increase in visitors during Q2 2017 compared to same period last year. There was a total of 10.75M inbound visitors during this period, whilst Britons leaving the country took a total of 19.09M overseas trips (+1% on last year). Corporate travel arrivals into London dropped 4% during the quarter confirming the increase of inbound leisure travellers.

After a record Q1, Sydney occupancy dropped to 83.9%. The recent re-opening of the Sydney International Convention Centre will continue to drive increases in occupancy levels for the city over the coming year.

Corporate travellers in Q2 2017 have resumed their usual travel patterns post 2016 – a year of uncertainty. During this quarter Easter fell in mid April, and the northern hemisphere moved into summer causing the usual seasonal slow in corporate travel. There was an increase in FIT (Free Independent Travel) into major tourist locations across Europe, North America and Asia.

Top cities seeing a rise in occupancy due to corporate and FIT travel were New York, Guangzhou, London and Sydney.
