San Francisco Travel Sees Many Benefits in Giants Playing in the World Series

Posted on by

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) October 30, 2014

The San Francisco Travel Association is celebrating the San Francisco Giants third World Series victory in five years for several reasons, according to Joe DAlessandro, president and chief executive officer of the San Francisco Travel Association.

First and foremost, we are so proud of the Giants tremendous achievement! DAlessandro said. We cant wait to welcome the team home and really celebrate with a victory parade up Market Street starting at noon tomorrow.

The Giants victory is thrilling for everyone who knows and loves San Francisco, and thats a huge number of people around the world, DAlessandro said. San Francisco is a top destination, both in the U.S. and internationally, and now people everywhere have been reminded that this is the city they want to visit.

Aside from the victory itself, media coverage of the World Series including the panoramic images of San Francisco is priceless, DAlessandro continued. Every time someone refers to the San Francisco Giants, all of the positive attributes of the destination are brought to mind the icons, the views, the food, the arts, the neighborhoods, and so on. Each time brings people closer to their next visit to San Francisco.

During the series itself, the teams and fans generated millions of dollars in economic impact through spending on hotels, restaurants, shops, attractions, entertainment and transportation during the series. Beyond the obvious direct spending, this will benefit all San Franciscans through the taxes and fees generated by visitor spending, he added.

At the 2012 World Series Games on October 24 and 25, 2012, the direct spending was $17,266,203 for both games combined. This is based on 43,000 visitors attending each game with an estimated 20 percent of people coming from out of town and staying overnight in San Francisco.

World Travel Awards headed to Anguilla for Grand Final 2014

Posted on by

World Travel Awards has revealed it will head to the paradise island of Anguilla in the Caribbean for its annual Grand Final. After touring the globe in search of the world's best hospitality organisations over the past year, World Travel Awards will host the crme de la crme of the industry at CuisinArt Golf Resort & Spa on Sunday, December 7th.

October 25th should have seen the highly-anticipated World Travel Awards Caribbean & North America Gala Ceremony 2014 take place in Anguilla, however, following Hurricane Gonzalo, and the major damage caused to the island's infrastructure, World Travel Awards was left with no choice but to postpone that event.

Now, in a move to support the island of Anguilla in its recovery and in a show of solidarity, World Travel Awards will host its Grand Final on the island. The event will be the first time the Anguilla Tourist Board and the luxurious resort will host a World Travel Awards Gala Ceremony.

Joining those receiving the highest honour in travel will be hundreds of dignitaries, luminaries, international media, government, industry leaders, and legends in the industry that have continued to set the standard for excellence in travel.

World Travel Awards President Graham Cooke said: "We have a moral commitment to support our partner destinations in their hour of need and by staging the World Travel Awards Grand Final in Anguilla this year we will give the island, its businesses and its economy a major boost at a time when it is most in need of international support. World Travel Awards will also devote the first part of the Grand Final to showcasing Anguilla and will present the island's awards during the Gala Ceremony."

Mr Cooke added: "It will be an honour for the World Travel Awards to visit Anguilla for the first time and I can think of no better place for us to celebrate the best of global tourism than CuisinArt Golf Resort & Spa.

"Our 2014 Grand Tour has been an exhaustive search of the very best of the tourism industry around the world. This is the final stage of our annual programme and I look forward to welcoming our regional winners to Anguilla as they compete for the global titles. Best of luck to you all."

This year has been one of our most successful to date for World Travel Awards, with the annual Grand Tour beginning with the Middle East Gala Ceremony, which took place at the JW Marriott Marquis in Dubai in May.

This was followed by the Europe Gala Ceremony at Divani Apollon Palace & Thalasso, in Athens, Greece, before the organisation was welcome to Quito, capital of Ecuador, for the South & Central America Gala Ceremony in August.

Most recently World Travel Awards visited The Oberoi, New Delhi, in India, for the Asia & Australasia Gala Ceremony, completing the regional events for the year.

New insight into millennial traveller trends to be unveiled during WTMs first youth tourism programme

Posted on by

WYSE Travel Confederation will release the results of its recent analysis of the behaviours and attitudes of millennial travellers during the two-day youth travel programme at next month's World Travel Market (WTM).The Millennial Traveller report looks at travel trends amongst 18-35 year olds and is based on the results of a survey completed by over 6,000 young travellers from more than 100 countries in June this year.

The study's key findings will be presented by David Chapman, Director General of WYSE Travel Confederation, at WTM London 2014 during the "Understanding the millennial traveller" session on Wednesday, 5 November at 15:30hrs (South Gallery 13-14). Chapman will be joined by three panellists: Carl Michel, Executive Chairman at Generator Hostels, John Firth, UK and European Sales Manager at WAYN.com, and Anthony Stone, Global Campaign Manager at STA Travel.

David Chapman said: "As one of the most important events in the travel industry's annual calendar, WTM is a prime opportunity for us to highlight the opportunities that the youth travel market presents within the global tourism industry. We are delighted to be headlining WTM's first ever youth tourism programme.

"The millennial generation is growing up in a technologically advanced world where travelling and communication go hand-in-hand and are easier than ever before. By providing insights into the trends these influential travellers are driving, we aim to provide travel professionals with a better understanding of the long-term opportunities they can explore within this unique sector and, ultimately, better cater to the needs and interests of millennial travellers.

To coincide with the session, WYSE Travel Confederation will be launching its new Millennial Traveller report next week. The report, which will be available free of charge to WYSE Travel Confederation members, will include more detailed information on the survey's key findings.

22nd World Travel Monitor Forum in Pisa: Private consumers still a reliable economic support

Posted on by

ifo Institute: no risk of another global recession however, economic recovery is taking longer than expected

Contrary to the sceptical forecasts for the global economy in 2015, Germany's travel industry will still be able to rely on private consumers next year. "We see no danger of people saving money 'due to anxiety' or even of a recession", said Dr. Gernot Nerb, an economic expert at the Munich-based ifo Institute for Economic Research. Speaking in Pisa last Tuesday at the start of the 22nd World Travel Monitor Forum Gernot Nerb said: "Next year, wages and salaries will rise more rapidly than in 2014 and will give consumer confidence an even stronger boost than in previous years. Furthermore, the introduction of a nationwide minimum wage will have a positive effect on income trends and thus indirectly on the travel industry too."

According to Gernot Nerb, "Overall, in 2015 private disposable income is likely to increase by 2.8 per cent". Everything pointed to a continuing economic recovery, he said, even if it was taking longer than was expected a few months ago. By contrast, the economies of France and Italy were lagging behind considerably. In spite of this, Europe as a whole could expect 0.8 per cent growth this year and 1.1 per cent growth in 2015, with its unemployment figures falling only slightly from 11.6 to 11.3 per cent over the same period. According to Gernot Nerb, "These developments are extremely bad for consumer confidence in the countries in question and will also have a negative impact on the travel industry in these EU countries."

"Due to the continuing and increasingly strong recovery of the US economy and, at around seven per cent, China's economy showing consistently stable growth, we see no danger of another global recession", Nerb added. On the contrary, it was likely that Europe's economic recovery would now be gathering pace.

According to Gernot Nerb there was no reason for Germany as a travel destination to mistrust the current growth trend. "There is no indication that people intend to limit their holiday spending in Germany", the ifo Institute's economic expert said.

Launched by the consultancy IPK International and sponsored by ITB Berlin, every year at the World Travel Monitor Forum in Pisa 50 tourism experts and researchers from around the world present current statistics and the latest trends in international tourism.

Other results of the January to August 2014 trend surveys conducted by IPK as well as the assessments of more than 50 tourism experts from over 20 countries and the core data of the World Travel Monitor will be published exclusively by ITB Berlin. Detailed information will be available in the ITB World Travel Trends Report in early December at http://www.itb-berlin.com. At the ITB Future Day of the ITB Berlin Convention Rolf Freitag, president of IPK International, will present the findings of the World Travel Monitor for the entire year, as well as the latest forecasts for 2015. The World Travel Monitor is based on the findings of representative interviews carried out with more than 500,000 people in over 60 global travel markets. It has been published regularly for more than 20 years and is recognised as the most widescale continuous survey examining global travel trends.

ITB Berlin 2015 will take place from Wednesday to Sunday, 4 to 8 March. From the Wednesday to the Friday ITB Berlin is open to trade visitors only. The ITB Berlin Convention is held parallel with the trade fair, from Wednesday to Saturday, 4 to 7 March 2015. It is the world"s largest specialist convention for the industry. More details are available at http://www.itb-convention.com. ITB Berlin is the leading trade fair for the worldwide travel industry. In 2014 a total of 10,147 companies and organisations from 189 countries exhibited their products and services to 174,000 visitors, who included 114,000 trade visitors.
