U.S. share of Chinese outbound travel has declined for two reasons: Long-haul travel has declined as a share of total outbound U.S. share of long-haul had declined until four years ago. Share of long-haul has increased. Sources: Office of Travel & Tourism Industries (OTTI) & Global Insights Inc. Global Travel Navigator

Destinations: concentrated in a few states (CA-57%, NY-32%, followed by: NV, DC, IL) Main Purpose of Trip: Business -51%; Visiting Friends & Relatives (VFR) - 23%; Convention - 11%; & Leisure/vacation 9%. Accommodations: 83% stay in hotels. Stay length: mean average of 28 nights, but is influenced by a few staying for a very long period of time. Median is 11 nights. Activities: Chinese are less active travelers than average travelers. OTTI tracks 25 Activities Top activities 2007: Shopping (88%), Dining in Restaurants (80%), Sightseeing in Cities (51%), Visit Historical Places (47%), Visit National Parks (29%), Visit Amusement/theme parks (28%) …..

  17. U.S. China MOU on Group Leisure Travel Under to U.S. law Chinese can visit so long as they receive a visa. Under Chinese law, Chinese travel agencies can only sell packaged leisure tours to Chinese to countries with whom they have a bilateral agreement or ADS In December 2007 U.S. China Tourism MOU Signed MOU implemented in 2 phases Phase 1: July 2008 covers 9 provinces (over 70 % of the market) Phase 2: U.S. is ready to implement when China agrees

  18. U.S. China MOU on Group Leisure TravelKey Provisions China National Tourism Administration (CNTA) authorized travel agencies may work with tour operators who are vetted by associations with programs approved by CNTA U.S. travel destinations able to market their brand in China To date NTA is the only U.S. association with a program In China the Government sets and monitors standards In the US the industry sets and monitors standards.

  19. Supply Side Considerations Liberalized restricted agreement (no open skies) Non-stop current cap of 10 flights/day per “side” U.S. at cap (based on January non-stop OAG schedule. China at half the cap level. Thus, based on current caps, short-term growth in non-stop flights must come from Chinese carriers. Long-term growth must come from upward-adjusted caps. 57% of all traffic between China and U.S. (inbound+outbound) is non-stop. Non-stop is growing as a share of all traffic.
