Update of Monthly
Tourism Indicators
16 June 2010
1
Overview
• Air passenger traffic volumes plummeted in April, as the
Icelandic volcanic eruption led to widespread disruption for
would-be travellers. The regional breakdown indicated that the
slowdown was truly global although the impact was most
apparent in Europe where volumes were down 11.7% on the year
in April compared to a 6% rise in March.
• In countries where data is available the impact of events in April
was clear, if not as marked as suggested by the IATA figures. For
that group of 20 countries growth slowed to 6.9% on the year
compared to 11.8% in March. The cause of this discrepancy is
probably that countries where arrivals data was available through
to April were principally located in Asia-Pacific, where the fallout
from the eruption was less severe.
• The incorporation of new data on visitor arrivals from Haver,
Eurostat and PATA reaffirms our view that 2010Q1 was marked
by a relatively robust rebound in activity. Based on available data
we estimate that arrivals were up by 5.7% on the year, although
mature markets, particularly in Europe continued to struggle.
