The traditional summer travel season is winding down in the US, but a look ahead to Labor Day reveals a steady interest in time off and exploration. Amadeus, a global leader in travel technology, with its unique ability to track forward-looking, on-the-books hotel occupancy in major markets around the world, cites the leading markets for Labor Day travel. All top 10 markets currently exceed 55% occupancy two weeks prior to the holiday.
While reservation numbers are slowing, overall occupancy trends are steady.
Consistent with previous holidays this year, booking lead times remain short with most reservations made within a week (0-7 days) of the holiday.
