Middle East

Ahead of the 2019 MEADFA Conference in Muscat, Oman, TFWA is pleased to publish the latest in the TFWA Monitor series of travel trend reports, produced by bookings analyst ForwardKeys. The study, entitled Middle East and Africa Air Traveller Trends 2019, looks in detail at travel patterns to and from the Middle East and Africa in 2019 so far, and looks ahead to travel bookings to January 2020.

Among the noteworthy trends explored in the report are:

  • Promising forecast growth in arrivals to the Middle East in the months ahead
  • Rebound in Qatar driven by the summer’s visa-free programme
  • An increase in international arrivals to Africa of over 7% so far in 2019
  • Slowdown in Chinese New Year bookings
