The results are based on an online survey of 53 travel managers worldwide conducted in November 2018.

Global hotel rates will increase around the world by 1-3% in 2019 and air fares by 1-2% in most markets, according to leading business travel management company BCD Travel’s newly released 2019 Industry Forecast.
