umbrella of the travel and tourism industry, an
industry which contributed 8.81 trillion U.S.
dollars to the global economy in 2018.
12. ◦ Travelers who are on the road for more than a day
need a place to sleep and rest - there are various
types of lodging across the world to accommodate
for this.
◦ The global occupancy rate (the share of total rooms
available which are occupied or rented at a given
time) of hotels in most regions increased over the
previous five years.
◦ Europe had the highest occupancy rate in 2018 at
72.4 percent, closely followed by the Asia Pacific
region with 70.6 percent.

can be relatively straightforward - they may
rise in certain markets during peak travel
periods.
When looking at regional occupancy rates on
a full-year basis, the effects of the 2008
global recession on the hotel industry are
clearly visible. The following year, the
occupancy rate fell in every region worldwide.
The Americas appeared to be the hardest hit
by the recession with occupancy falling to
54.7 percent, while other regions managed to
stay above 60 percent for the year.
