The Barometer program gathers qualitative input from "in-country" travel trade. Respondents include people in sales, marketing, or information distribution for:

• Tour Operators
• Travel Wholesalers
• Travel Agent Firms
• Destination Marketing Representatives
• Corporate Marketing Representatives
• Hotel Marketing Representatives
• Airline Representatives
• Trade Press
• Travel Information Centers

Why should key in-country travel trade (tour operators etc.) participate in the U.S. DOC, OTTI Travel Barometer Program?

• The Barometer provides respondents with a broader perspective on market demand, which can be used to measure and compare actual internal forecasts.
• Trade can respond to one survey related to their U.S. efforts. This helps eliminate the flood of request from suppliers and representatives seeking information on sales/bookings.
• Specific company information is NEVER reported. The results from the respondent base are aggregated.
• The quarterly survey is conducted in both English and in the host country language.
• Respondents receive the reports in native language.
• Respondents receive the core results free - approximately one week after the survey closes.
• The survey is easy to complete - only about 30 minutes per quarter.
• Reports are accessed at any time using a unique user Id and Password.
• The Barometer will help keep U.S. suppliers and destinations investing into your market.
