About the Travel Price Index Report

Advito’s Travel Price Index Report is a predictive analysis of airfare and hotel rate pricing trends. With the understanding that market volatility caused by a variety of external factors makes accurate annual forecasting very challenging, Advito’s consulting team calculates the index on a quarterly basis. At the beginning of each quarter, predictive analytics tools produce realistic price calculations based on future shopping data enabled for the upcoming quarter that looks at variance to the same time versus the previous year and the trend versus the previous quarter. The report is published on a quarterly basis and seeks to address and analyze the key factors impacting hotel and air pricing in the short- to medium- term.
