1 Business Travel Dashboard Quarter Insight Department VisitScotland March 215 1
2 Welcome In today s rapidly changing world, having an informed outlook is vital. The tourism and hospitality sectors are increasingly sensitive to consumer trends and economic conditions. The VisitScotland Insights Team combines consumer perspectives with industry knowledge to allow Scottish Tourism to meet the challenges of today s marketplace. Our quarterly Business Travel Dashboard is a snapshot of industry performance. It also provides a commentary on the drivers influencing consumers and business now and in the future. Please note that this paper represents business travel of all types including individual non-discretionary business travel which is not influenced by the work of the business tourism industry. It is not therefore a report specifically covering the MICE market (Meetings, Incentive, Conference & Exhibitions) or Business Tourism as targeted by VisitScotland s Business Events team. Insights Summary 1.4 million overnight domestic business trips were made to Scotland during the first three quarters of 214, marginally down on the same period in , international business trips were made to Scotland between January and September 214, a 27% increase on the previous year. New legislation by the Home Office to amend the visa system to make the UK more attractive to businesses is set to create a huge advantage in terms of business travel to the UK. British firms are paying an estimated 37 million per annum on keeping their business travellers connected to WIFI when abroad.

Figures were generally boosted with activity during August, which may relate to the number of events ongoing during this time, including the Glasgow Commonwealth Games. Running Total (Jan-Sep) 214 There were 1.4 million overnight domestic business trips made to Scotland during the first three quarters of 214, marginally down on the same period in 213.

Overnight business travellers stayed for an average of 2.6 nights, marginally down on the same period in 213, and spent 14% less per trip ( 231). However, spend per night increased 14% ( 1) indicating domestic business travellers are taking shorter trips, but spending more per night. This continues on from the cost-conscious trend for business travellers last quarter, but may also be influenced by the many events during 214. International Business Travel & Tourism to Scotland 25.

Despite exchange rates favouring outbound travel from the UK, business travel has remained resilient, with an increase in both established and emerging markets during the first half of 214 in comparison to the same period last year, particularly from Scandanavia, USA, and mainland Europe. This is also reflected in the average spend per trip ( 6) and night ( 98), both down on the same period in 213. The average length of stay increased by 2% to 6.1 nights, indicating overseas business travellers are making money go further on their trip. 3

Visitors from the USA have dominated the international business travel market, which can be attributed largely to The Ryder Cup, as well as other key events of 214. The USA generated the highest figures in terms of trips (359,), nights (37,), and average spend per trip ( 129) in terms of business-related trips to Scotland. Visitors from Australia spent the longest on average (1.8 nights) in Scotland out of the top markets during the first three quarters of 214, as well as the second-highest average trip expenditure ( 863).

5 Business Tourism Trends Trend Meetings Market Route Development Business Travel News Competitor Activity Business Travel & Tourism Trends Wider Market Trends Commentary The American Express Meetings and Events 215 Global Meetings Forecast has warned that meetings buyers should make the most of squeezed budgets next year as overall MICE is expected to decline. The study indicates that although overall meeting numbers are to grow by 1.2%, overall spend as well as individual budget and attendee numbers are expected to decrease during 215. UK budgets were set to decrease by.7% and overall meeting spend is predicted to fall by 1.1%, which is a sharp contrast to the 4.8% increase in meeting spend that was estimated for has started positively for Scotland s busiest airports, with Glasgow, Edinburgh and Aberdeen all increasing on the same period in 214. Glasgow had 485,685 passengers travel through its doors in January, an increase of 11.4% on last year, while Edinburgh achieved a 7.2% increase, which was largely a result of Ryanair s new three-times daily service to London Stansted and BA Cityflyer's London City service, now operating 12 times per day. Aberdeen did see a slight increase, but was impacted by adverse weather conditions. The UK government has confirmed the decision to devolve power to charge Air Passenger Duty (APD) to the Scottish Parliament. The Scottish Government is now expected to reform and eventually abolish APD following plans made by the Scottish National Party. This is likely to increase passenger numbers to Scottish airports, with particular concern from airports in Northern England. British firms are paying an estimated 37 million per annum on keeping their business travellers connected to WIFI when abroad. Research conducted by Amba Hotels found that the average UK business traveller spends 16.3 on WIFI and roaming charges on each trip. A report by the GBTA Foundation has found that business tourism spending in the UK, Germany, France, Italy and Spain grew by 4.9% and it s expected to rake in over billion by the end of 214. The spending is expected to carry on the growth pattern into 215 where it s expected to grow at a rate of about 6.6%. Germany in particular is predicted to have significant growth, with business travel set to increase by 1.8% in 215. A study by CWT found that travel buyers will put greater emphasis on data and mobile technology to direct their travel programmes in 215. The top priority for buyers in 215 will be leveraging data to build predictive analyses and benchmarks. The study by CWT highlights that with better visibility, travel managers are able to steer their travel programmes towards their particular business objectives. Other insights for buyers include deploying a fare tracking and rebooking solution, promoting mobile apps to increase travel efficiency and leveraging big data to adapt the travel policy. New legislation by the Home Office to amend the visa system to make the UK more attractive to businesses is set to create a huge advantage in terms of business travel to the UK. The overhaul of the current system will see the number of visa types available to foreign travellers cut from 15 to four. The new visa options will include one that will allow business travellers to take a holiday alongside meetings for the first time, which would have required two separate visas in the past. The new legislation will come into effect in April of this year.
