France And Europe Manage Growth in 2008
France registered a 1.9% growth rate in RevPAR for 2008, driven by the Rugby World Cup, Paris AIr Show and other major tourist drawing attractions.
Most likely France won’t enjoy such growth in 2009 if the analysis of the past two quarters are any sign of what is to come. The small growth rate was mainly held up by a strong first quarter in 2008, with the second half of the year bringing steep declines.
There’s a couple charts and graphs available here for you to look at and see how other parts of Europe performed across the different segments.
