HN World Panel: How to manage revenue in a pent-up demand era?
Considering the unprecedented global travel disruption and performance declines we've endured; hoteliers finally have something to look forward to. The world has spent the last 18 months dreaming about travel, but not actually going anywhere. Increasing vaccination rates combined with relaxed travel restrictions are bringing travel back… with a vengeance. Most agree that the worst is behind us.
But so far, this pent-up demand or "revenge" travel is different. Driven almost entirely by domestic leisure demand, the patterns have changed. Some premium locations are already exceeding 2019 pre-COVID levels, while hotels just a few blocks away are still struggling. Hotels that targeted the corporate, international, or group segments are reinventing themselves, with mixed success.
Considering the unique nature of the recovery, what should hoteliers do to optimize and manage COVID's pent-up demand?
Industry experts Nicki Graham, Vice President of Marketing of Cendyn; Sharad Kapur, Revenue & Distribution Strategist at Estilo Hospitality; and Christoph Hütter, Non-traditional Revenue Manager & Consultant, will join host and moderator Scott Dahl, Program Director at Les Roches Global Hospitality Education, to discuss, share thoughts, and perspectives on how to manage revenue in a pent-ip demand era.
The panel discussion is based on the recently published HN World Panel - How to manage revenue in a pent-up demand era? - featuring 20 expert views.
