Nese travel leaders shared their valuable insights into the world's largest outbound travel market at TravelRave media roundtables held in Shanghai and Beijing
Chinese travel leaders shared their valuable insights into the world’s largest outbound travel market at TravelRave media roundtables held in Shanghai and Beijing
Asia is truly making its way to the forefront of global travel and tourism and the rest of the world is taking note.

Former British PM Tony Blair stated in his keynote speech at the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC) Asia Summit that Asia represents the future for travel and tourism, stating that power is shifting to the East and the West has to work with them to avoid falling behind.

The evidence and numbers certainly back the rise of Asia as a travel and tourism powerhouse. According to WTTC, by  two out of every five travellers are expected to be from the region and will account for nearly half of global tourism expenditure.

In turn, this is expected to stimulate approximately 47 million new jobs in Asia by with an expectation that these figures will continue rising until

This will be a period when China and India are expected to be the world’s largest and third-largest economies respectively, with an estimated three billion people having the financial means to travel.

At the by-invitation Asia Travel Leaders Summit (ATLS)  a joint-study by STB, The Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and Visa also noted the emergence of the middle and affluent class (MAC) travellers.

Meanwhile on the business end, the region’s business travel and meetings, incentives, conventions and exhibitions (BTMICE) industry is set to benefit from the increasing attention of the international business community eyeing the growth opportunities and relatively strong economies in Asia.

With travel and tourism in Asia set to increase on both the leisure and business fronts, there will be more travellers, flights, jobs, revenue and importantly, more consumer needs.

Therefore, in a diverse market like Asia, it is critical that businesses are equipped with a deep understanding of the region’s multi-faceted environment.
And while Asia presents many attractive opportunities, there are also challenges for companies seeking to attain a share of the consumer and corporate travel markets.

The Asian Opportunity                                               
This year, the strategic high-level Asia Travel Leaders Summitwill delve deeper into discussions on the Asian Millennial Travellers who will enter their peak spending and travelling period in the next five to ten years to become the industry's core consumer group
This year, the strategic high-level Asia Travel Leaders Summit   will delve deeper into discussions on the Asian Millennial Travellers who will enter their peak spending and travelling period in the next five to ten years to become the industry’s core consumer group
Of course, within the wider opportunity presented in Asia, Asian MACs and corporate travellers are not a homogenous bunch, and actually account for several different opportunities across various sub-segments.

With an increasing number of Asian MACs having the resources to travel, this will lead to various changes in travel and tourism in the region for which the industry needs to be prepared for.

Specifically, companies need to rethink present strategies and create new business frameworks to effectively reach the Asian MACs and corporate travellers.

                                                         

The surge in online travel in Asia in particular, is getting travel businesses even more excited.  Asian MACs are increasingly using the internet in their travel research and purchases, and as internet penetration, especially mobile internet, increases in China, India and Indonesia, more MACs are turning to the web for their travel needs.

Online platforms are also gaining momentum as the desired way to purchase travel products.

Yeoh Siew Hoon, editor and producer of Web in Travel Conference, an event of TravelRave, says that the convergence of several factors – such as increased web penetration, leapfrogging of technology to mobile first, more low cost carriers and the emergence of a new generation of consumers – will lead to accelerated growth in the online travel market across the region.

The opportunity for travel businesses therefore lies in impulse travel.

The spontaneous nature of today’s travellers also means that an increasing number of Asian travellers are leaving their bookings until the last minute, driving the importance of mobile booking channels within the travel and tourism industry.

As many as two-thirds of Indonesian MACs and about a third of Chinese MACs plan short trips – holidays that are less than or equal to a week – within a week of the trip itself.

At a media roundtable held in Beijing to promote TravelRave, CC Zhuang, CEO of China travel search portal Qunar.com, agreed that Chinese impulse travellers are a market that is gaining in size as travellers increasingly turn away from package deals towards independent bookings and shared that his company constantly experiments with marketing strategies targeted at last-minute travellers.

Themed 'The Asia Factor', Web In Travel Conference 2013 will focus on the changes within Asia that will affect global, regional and local competition

“A good number of last-minute bookings are initially made by retirees who are not bound by rigid work schedules and who have the means to spend,” he continued.

“They are later often accompanied by their working-adult children and their families, given the Asian tendency to travel as a family, translating to higher level of travel expenditure.”

Siew Hoon concurs and says customers will become “increasingly sophisticated and informed”.

“They will know very well how to search and shop online, and where to look for the best bargains,” she adds. “They will increasingly wield more power in how they express themselves about their experiences.”

As today’s travellers become increasingly last minute, more mobile and more demanding, they naturally expect that the rapid improvement in technology and connectivity should improve their experience when they travel.

With technology ever-evolving, travel providers need to innovate with the times or risk becoming obsolete.

Infrastructure investment

But it is not just technological advances that are powering the travel and tourism demand in Asia.

Forward-thinking tourism destinations in Asia have begun billion-dollar investments in the development of tourism infrastructure and concepts to ensure that their infrastructure offers a user-friendly and efficient gateway for visitors.

Certainly, Southeast Asian economies are increasingly garnering investor attention with their growth opportunities generated by the rise of the middle-class alone and these will be discussed in greater detail at the Asia Pacific Tourism Destination Investment Conference at TravelRave this October.

Domestic travel and tourism spending is projected to grow significantly faster than foreign visitor spending in China and India over the next ten years.

Specifically in China, where domestic spending already accounts for 90% of the industry’s total contribution to GDP, domestic spending will grow by

David Scowsill, president and CEO of the WTTC asserts, “This means that these countries need to place a strong focus on developing infrastructure and services to meet the domestic demand.”

Constant enhancement of existing infrastructure is also needed to ensure that the specific needs and preference of the travellers are met.
                                     
                                                               

For example, to cater to the increasing demand for more flexible spaces which can combine exhibitions with conferences or ‘Confex’ events, Singapore Expo opened a new wing MAX ATRIA in 2012 while Suntec Singapore Convention and Exhibition Centre completed modernisation programme this year.

The application of technology in tourism, whether in the vacation-planning process or during the actual vacation, is another aspect of infrastructure that is changing the entire travel industry.

To stay on top, the Asian travel and tourism industry needs to look towards technology solutions such as 3G and wireless broadband access that provide connectivity as well as mobile payment gateways to empower bookings.

Industry collaboration

For companies to continue thriving on Asia’s growth, industry collaboration is vital.

Mindful of the need to be sensitive to the diverse demands and cultures of local markets, businesses are increasingly looking towards collaboration and the forming of alliances to leverage each other’s networks and expertise.

Within the travel and tourism industry, intra and inter-industry are the more common forms of collaborations and alliances.

Intra-industry alliances are most visible within the aviation industry and carriers have started forming alliances to leverage the growing opportunities in the Asian travel market and increase their footprint in the region.

Beyond leveraging each other’s strength, inter-industry alliances also provide the parties involved with a more in-depth insight on trends in the partnering industries.

Building the next generation of industry talent

One of the greatest areas of potential for industry collaboration is in the development of talent and leadership. At last year’s Asia Travel Leaders Summit (ATLS), there was unanimous agreement amongst leaders on the pressing talent crunch the industry faces.

This resulted in the development of working groups in which leaders from companies such as Thomas Cook (India) Limited, TAUZIA International Management, and Patina Hotels & Resorts, re-convened post-Summit to explore specific ways to cooperate on strategic human capital and leadership development issues.

Local knowledge is also a powerful differentiator in driving business success. In addition to strong personal attributes and broad management skills, leaders should have sufficient local knowledge.

According to Madhavan Menon, managing director, Thomas Cook (India) Ltd., increasing numbers of companies are looking to expand their footprint in Asia.
“Tourism businesses also need to attract and retain a healthy mix of local talent and knowledge among working teams along with encouraging greater inter-cultural learning and exchanges which result in a more adaptable, innovative and globalised organisation,” he adds.
TravelRave: Unlocking invaluable opportunities and insights
Indeed, the future of Asia is a vast landscape of growth and opportunities and it is timely for the industry to come together to gain a deeper understanding of the region
It was with this in mind that TravelRave, Asia’s most influential travel and tourism festival was conceived three years ago – to provide a unique platform for Asian travel leaders representing the entire spectrum of the industry to share insights and spark off collaborations and finding effective ways to ensure sustainable                               
Held from 21 to 25 October 2013, TravelRave will continue to see an exciting line up of travel and tourism-related events featuring a range of quality Asia-focused content and networking opportunities across related sectors from hospitality (Hotel Technology Conference), tourism investment (Asia Pacific Tourism Investment Destination Investment Conference), technology (Web in Travel) to aviation (Aviation Outlook Asia).

Other highlights include the inaugural UIA Roundtable Asia, their first foray in Asia for international association representatives; and ITB Asia – an established B2B trade show and convention for the Asian travel market.

At the strategic high-level Asia Travel Leaders Summit (ATLS) this year, the summit will delve deeper into discussions on Asian millennial travellers (AMTs) who will enter their peak spending and travelling period, to become the industry’s core consumer group in the next five to ten years.

With limited research on AMTs currently available, an original research will be presented at ATLS to spark discussion and thoughts on how to capture this target market.

Also held as part of TravelRave this year, the Singapore Tourism Board will be partnering ITB Asia and Nanyang Technological University to curate a for-students-by-students initiative. Held at ITB Asia, the conference, ‘Future Leaders- Building Quality Tourism Careers’ is aimed at cultivating future talent for the travel and tourism industry in Singapore and will be a platform that brings together local students with the industry to bridge the gap between job-seekers’ aspirations and what the industry has to offer as employers.

Last year’s ATLS participant, Azran Osman-Rani, CEO of AirAsia X says that TravelRave is unique as it provides participants with a sense of the broader global issues the industry is facing through the alignment of issues and priorities.

“This gives us more confidence heading into the turbulent world ahead. Coming together to network and meet people who are in similar situations reinforces or even challenges your current understanding,” he asserts.

“That’s what makes the TraveRave experience invaluable.”

Thus, it came as no surprise when its current master, Ajit Singh, hinted at Air India privatisation over the weekend. With barely six months left for this government, Singh probably thought he could safely stir the privatisation pot with minimum risk to his ministership. He obviously is well aware that his time in office is too short to see any such proposal through. So whats the harm in uttering the ‘P’ word and wait for reactions In less than  Singh gleefully went back on his words after violent reactions from the Left and even from BJP. He said there was no proposal at any level of the government to privatise Air India at present. Well, it is about time this cash starved government began thinking in terms of a proposal because unless Air India is sold off to private enterprise, its days are numbered. Privatisation may not be the only solution to Air India’s woes but at present, it seems to be the only viable one. The most serious attempt at privatisation, which of course went kaput, was in   when two bidders had been shortlisted. The Hindujas were interested in both

 Air 

                                                           

India and Indian Airlines the two carriers which merged later to form the present Air India while the Tata-Singapore Airlines combine was interested in AI. A change of ministers and global uncertainty after  in the US ensured that privsatisation was never seriously pursued. The national carrier is left with little arsenal to compete even in an expanding market. Flickr Now that Tata and SIA are back in the civil aviation market in India, perhaps this is as good a time as any to at least restart the privatisation debate. So why should Air India be sold off? Multiple reasons: 1 Competition will anyway gobble it up: Even six months back, AI was happily declaring how its operational performance was improving and talked of a 

EBIDTA positive (break even at the operational level. But things have changed dramatically since then. The four fold increase in seat entitlements to Jet-Etihad combine kick in by , making some of AI’s overseas routes unviable. Only exceptions would be long haul, non-stop flights to Europe and Americas. As if this was not enough, the government is keen to do away with restrictions on domestic airlines flying abroad. This means the new Tata-Singapore Airlines combine could become a formidable opponent to AI in no time. In short, the national carrier is left with little arsenal to compete even in an expanding market with the might of a well funded Gulf carrier and an equally formidable Tata-SIA. 2 Government support uncertain: The Government may have promised AI  crore in equity support over a decade but with its own finances in doldrums, where is the cash going to come from? Another 

rore is needed for sovereign guarantees for AI’s short terms loans. Already, almost  crore equity support promised in the Budget for FY14 is not coming with the government itself starved for funds and AI may have to raise loans. Anyway, the government cannot be expected to fund AI in perpetuity, a viable solution must be found to its financial woes. The airline carries about  crore in accumulated debt on its books, which includes debt from aircraft purchase, from banks and from sundry debtors. 3) Infrastructure already in place: What could be attractive to a buyer is one of the youngest aircraft fleets in the world, maintenance and ground handling infrastructure already in place, considerable pull of the Air India brand and lucrative overseas flying rights already in the airline’s pockets. After the hive off of two subsidiaries —  one for maintenance and repair and another for ground handling — the staff on AI’s books has been halved to just  people. This means manpower to aircraft ratio of just against the industry norm of In fact, now this ratio is even better than domestic aviation industry star, IndiGo! An editorial in the Indian Express says this morning that AI continues to lose money to the tune of crore a day, translating into a total drain of over  . These losses are despite the government infusing crore in the last four years. “How much, then, will the proposed infusion till change the situation at Air India? This is a crisis of credibility as much as of finances and operations.” An AI official told Firstpost that with more of its planes filled, better on-time performance and improvement in other parameters, AI is on its way to profitability. “And is privatisation the only solution per se to save AI? We have seen privatisation has not always helped matters…..we must first decide whether we need a national carrier. But a debate on privatisation is good, it should be encouraged”. We have debated this enough, now is the time to act. Instead of another public debate over whether AI should be privatised or not, it is better to quickly take a decision to do so. There will anyway be problems aplenty even if a decision were to be taken.

workforce, long used to sarkari culture, will need to put in a hard day’s work — something most Air Indians are not used to. Take this example: AI employees were entitled to ridiculous ‘passages’, which means free tickets for extended family members. So sons-in-law,brothers-in-law and even mother-in-law of an AI employee were entitled to free AI tickets. Only last year was this ridiculous allowance scrapped and free passages restricted to the employee’s spouse, dependent children and, at most, dependent parents. Next, lets see who are the most trenchant critics of AI privatisation. The Left parties and affiliated trade unions — but they oppose any and every privatisation whether the PSU is loss making or not. They are best ignored. BJP and its allies are opposing because any major proposal by the ruling UPA must be opposed. Employee unions are opposing because they fear job losses — which private enterprise will tolerate sloth? The question to be asked is not how to tackle this opposition but whether any interested party willing to buy into AI would also be keen to take on all the accumulated losses and massive debt on its books. Instead of worrying about domestic opposition, the government should be thinking of makingattractive enough, financially and otherwise, for a suitor.

Hardelot is a beach town in the north of France. It is in the Pas de Calais, a region along the English Channel where the distance to Britain is short and, unlikely as it may seem, this is why it has a link to the development of commercial aviation in India.

Closeness to Britain was why, at the start of the 20th century, a group of investors decided to develop Hardelot as a holiday town for rich British families. One who took up the offer wasn't British, but Indian and Parsi, the businessman RD Tata, cousin of Jamsetji Tata, who bought a house for his French wife and their children, and also became a property developer there. One of the roads in Hardelot would come to be named Avenue des Indes.

Hardelot is also less than 40 km from Sangatte, which is even closer to Britain and the place Louis Bleriot, the French aviator, set off from in the first successful crossing of the channel by plane. That was in 1909, the same time RD Tata came to Hardelot, and the event made a big impression on his five-year-old son Jehangir. When Bleriot bought a neighbouring villa in Hardelot, Jehangir quickly became friends with his son, Louis junior, and both of them would spend much time with Bleriot's planes.

Jehangir, better known as JRD Tata, would later recall the excitement of seeing a plane landing on Hardelot beach for the first time: "It was flown by Adolphe Pegoud, the first man to loop-the-loop. From then on I was hopelessly hooked on aeroplanes and made up my mind that come what may, one day, I would be a pilot." This would happen when he was back in Bombay and India's first flying club was being formed. Twelve days after the launch of the Aero Club of India & Burma, JRD went on his first solo flight and then, on February  he got the first flying licence issued by the club.
                                                     
                                                       

JRD's connection with flying went far deeper than just business. It survived not just the problems of the industry, but also more personal losses. In those early years JRD escaped death in a flying accident at least once, but his younger brother Jimmy was not so lucky. He was a strapping young man, who JRD always said was a better pilot than he was himself, and in  he set out with an Austrian friend to fly from Austria to the UK. While they were flying over the friend's Austrian home he tried to turn and wave to his family, but with two tall men in a tiny plane, the action imbalanced them and sent the plane into a spin and a crash, killing both of them.

Stories like that make JRD's famous first commercial flight of Tata Aviation, which he flew himself on  from Karachi to Bombay, a remarkable example of a businessman putting his own life on the line. JRD's involvement, and the re-enactments he flew in  and  have come to overshadow the commercial aspect of the flight.

It was meant to demonstrate the viability of airmail from London to the subcontinent right down to Ceylon, and Karachi was the starting point as it had an Imperial Airways (the forerunner of today's British Airways) service from the UK. The 45 pounds of mail JRD carried on his flight was immediately taken on by his business partner, the South African-born Nevil Vintcent, on a further flight, with halts on the way at places like Bellary, to end in Madras, from where it immediately set off on the return journey to Karachi, so that the mail could catch the Imperial Airways flight to the UK.

What is also remarkable is how soon this venture started turning a profit. Aviation is a notorious loss-maker, at least in its early years; yet by Tata Aviation had made a slim profit of Frederick Tymms, the director-general of civil aviation in India at that time is quoted as saying, "Scarcely anywhere else in the world was there an air service operating without support from the government." The government had signed the mail contract by then, but that was pretty much all the support Tata Aviation was getting.

Luckily, another source of support had emerged with the maharajas. We are familiar with Air India's moustachioed maharaja, but in the early days of the airline actual maharajas also played a role. An article in The Times of India in   points out that with the Indian government displaying little interest in developing aviation facilities, it had been left to various maharajas to step in: "The aerodrome at Jodhpur is acknowledged to be the best equipped in India and by laying out such an aerodrome and providing facilities for  accommodation, etc the Maharaja has made his capital an important stopping place on the route between Karachi and the East." Another example was the private aerodrome of Raja Sir Annamalai Chettiar of Chettinad which was proposed to become the home base of a Madras-Ceylon air service.
