Austrian and German holiday anyway - but it is saved. Austria boasts beautiful scenery and hospitality, proximity and good value for money, the many services offered is as welcome as good food, spa facilities and cleanliness. Geurlaubt is despite the crisis, will still be saved, such as extensive customer survey shows. The booking status is well below that of the previous year, as a detailed survey of the Austrian city shows and leisure hotels. "After the city hotel industry recorded losses for months on nights and revenue, the winter is good now for the holiday hotel history. Are strong declines in bookings reality," said Peer. In the center of a broad advertising campaign should the good price / performance ratio and the short journey, but also the natural beauty, the hospitality and the many services offered are, "concluded Karmasin motivation research.

"How much we mentioned in last year's results will depend on the application of Austria," said Peer. Austria could also benefit from short-term bookings ". However, the State should provide an active contribution to decision making - that is only possible with massive presence of the reference to the past winter will not be enough." In the industry, even the marketing expenditure in 90% of farms at least not reduced, quarter it will increase even: "This is so important that occupational skills training in marketing should be encouraged," sope.
