Middle East Online Travel Overview Fourth Edition

Alongside its cultural traditions and historical significance, the Middle East is moving swiftly into the Internet age.

Driven by high Internet and smartphone penetration, improving technology infrastructure and a young population with an appetite for travel (nearly 40% younger than age 20, with another 27% in the millennial 20-34 age range), the Middle East travel market is well positioned for strong growth. Strong traditional airline brands, and a huge hotel market that is expanding as the region prepares to host several global events in the next four years, Middle East travel market projections show an average 8% annually through 2021, when gross bookings are projected to reach $107.8 billion. Phocuswright analysts are taking a fourth deep dive into the Middle East with actual and forecasted data from 2018-2023.
