Bharatbook.com announces a new report on "Business Travel 2013 " the UK market for business travel, including activities by UK residents, both in the UK and abroad, as well as business travel to the UK by overseas residents. Oct 4, 2013 : The UK market for business travel, including activities by UK residents, both in the UK and abroad, as well as business travel to the UK by overseas residents. It examines broad market trends and development within each market segment, and discusses suppliers, such as airlines, rail travel providers, other transport operators, hotel and conferencing venues, car rental firms and travel management companies (TMCs). The UK business travel market has declined in terms of both volume and value over the last 5 years. This downward trend in the market is, for the most part, attributable to recessionary factors, and the impact of the economic climate across Europe and the rest of the developed world. There has, however, been a degree of recovery apparent in the business travel market in recent years, with estimated growth in 2012 representing the second consecutive year of growth. Between 2008 and 2012, the number of UK domestic, outbound and inbound visits declined by an estimated 5.4%. Similarly, the market declined in terms of value, experiencing an estimated fall of 2.7% in expenditure over the same period. The overseas markets, both outbound and inbound, have been the worst affected by the economic downturn. However, the domestic market has performed comparatively well, and is estimated to have experienced some growth over the review period. Major trends affecting the business travel sector — other than the continued impact of the economic downturn — include the rising cost of air travel. As the dominant mode of international travel, and the only travel option for long-haul destinations, the rising air fares could have an increasingly detrimental effect on passenger volumes, both in the leisure and business travel segments. However, with rising Air Passenger Duty (APD), airport charges and continued high global oil prices, this upward trend in the cost of air travel is likely to continue in the foreseeable future. Other significant trends affecting the market include the expansion of online services and other technological products by providers and suppliers of business travel products. With the proliferation of smartphones and tablets in recent years, numerous TMCs and travel companies have launched applications (‘apps’), aimed at providing users with easily accessible booking and itinerary managements services. Continued economic uncertainty, particularly across Europe, will continue to impact the market over the short to medium term, limiting growth to a relatively subdued rate between 2013 and 2015. As financial conditions improve, and business confidence across the developed economies returns, demand for business travel is expected to become increasingly strong, providing more significant growth over the long-term period.
