TIA Forecasts Solid Growth in Winter Travel
December 19, 2003 – TIA’s exclusive Winter Travelometer Forecast calls for continued growth in travel during December, January and February. TIA predicts that travel this winter will increase 2.3 percent overall, led by a noticeable increase in business travel — forecast to climb 3.7 percent over the previous winter season. Leisure travel is expected to grow by 2 percent. The increases in business travel come against a backdrop of steady annual declines since 1999 that have left the business travel sector severely depressed.
