Asia Pacific Travel on the rise
Asia-Pacific travel is on the up, according to the latest booking figures issued today by the region’s leading travel facilitator Abacus International.
In August, total bookings on the Abacus system increased by 19 per cent over the corresponding period in 2004 to more than 4.41 million. As with previous months, Intra-Asia travel accounted for the majority of bookings made at more than 81 per cent.
Intra-Asia travel continued to grow steadily with bookings in August posting a 17 per cent rise over the corresponding period last year. The surprise star performer was the Asia to Middle East route, which recorded a 107 per cent increase over the same period in 2004.
Abacus President and CEO Don Birch: “As we said at the beginning of the year, 2005 looks to be another record year for Asia-Pacific travel as regional governments place more emphasis on developing tourism infrastructure and cultivating the tourist dollar.
