Beijing travel trade not panicking from the reappearance of SARS
Wednesday, April 28, 2004
The travel trade here is monitoring the impact of the reappearance of SARS, but is not alarmed. The problem is how the overseas press reacts to this, said Liu Shehong, deputy manager of CTI`s Europe Inbound department.

She admitted that it would have some influence on some markets at least, like the American market.

The American market suffered the biggest loss last year, and we haven`t seen clear recovery signs till now.

But she said that Europe appears more optimistic.

Northern Europe is in a slack season, so it won`t be influenced much at this moment.

The World Health Organisation said yesterday that it`s not necessary to raise the alarm in Beijing. They commended the Chinese government`s quick response and information sharing on the outbreak.

How do you expect luxury travel to perform in times of economic downturn?.

Providers of luxury travel products are going to witness shorter stays by their customers and an increase in seasonality.

People are going to become more value conscious and will opt for those luxury offers that represent a convincing value-for-money proposition. Providers of overpriced services are those to feel the pinch.

Both people paying for their personal trips and firms paying for their top executives' business trips will cut back on travel expenses, thus affecting all luxury travel providers.

It is going to be business as usual. Those people opting for high-end travel products are not going to be affected by the looming crisis.
