Indicators
Built on a solid foundation
Tourism Economics brings together economic, psychographic, financial, and external factors into our robust modelling process.
Economic fundamentals
Household income, consumer sentiment, corporate profits, savings rates, and other drivers of the travel outlook are drawn from the latest Oxford Economics macroeconomic outlook.
Traveller sentiment
Survey data on traveller intentions and attitudes, combined with historic travel patterns, provide a benchmark for the near-term outlook.
Prices and exchange rates
The cost of travel, including energy, food, hotel rates, airfares, and exchange rates inform revenue forecasts
External event factors
Upside examples: new attractions, policies, investments.
Downside examples: geopolitical tensions, health crises, natural disasters.
Tailored to your needs
You define the traveller segments, markets, and scenarios
Segmentation

The Oxford Economics brand carries credibility in the market.”
“We were drawn to working with Oxford Economics for its solid reputation and the strength of its research, and we’ve been particularly impressed with your ability to present this to governments and the media – it’s the reason we’d look for future opportunities to work together.”
