Following
a decline in 2009 due to the adverse affects of the global financial crisis,
the Swiss travel and tourism sector recorded an increase in both inbound and
outbound tourist volumes and expenditure in 2012. Promotional activities
organized by the tourism authority coupled with relatively stable economic
conditions were the key drivers of this growth. In terms of its contribution to
GDP and employment figures, the travel and tourism sector plays a significant
role in the Swiss economy. According to World Travel and Tourism Council
(WTTC), in 2012, tourism accounted for 8.0% of the nation’s GDP and 9.9% of its
employment figures.
Domestic
tourist volumes increased from 8.1 million tourists in 2008 to 8.6 million in
2012, at a CAGE of 1.31%. It is anticipated that, between 2012 and 2017,
volumes will increase at a projected CAGR of 1.63% and reach a high of 9.3 million.
The key growth drivers are expected to be economic stability, rising levels of
consumer confidence and government initiatives to increase domestic tourism. On
the other hand, inbound tourism grew between 2008 and 2012 and recorded a CAGR
of 0.15%, rising from 9.2 million to 9.3 million. Inbound tourist arrivals are
expected to reach 10.6 million in 2017, expanding at a projected CAGR of 2.53%.
The key drivers of this growth will be economic improvement in key European
source markets, the strengthening of the Swiss Franc, improved access to travel
services at increasingly competitive prices and government efforts to promote
Switzerland as a tourist destination.

Despite
this, in revenue terms, the Swiss hotel market declined between 2008 and 2012
at a CAGR of -2.51% from CHF6.1 billion (US$5.6 billion) to CHF5.5 billion
($5.8 billion). However, it is expected to increase at a CAGR of 2.45% and
reach CHF6.2 billion (US$6.6 billion) by 2017.
Finally,
the Swiss travel intermediary industry value is anticipated to increase at a
CAGR of 6.05% between now and 2017 and eventually reach CHF10.7 billion
(US$11.4 billion). This will be driven by a rise in discretionary spending,
increased business travel and government-lead marketing campaigns. The industry
share of online intermediaries is expected to increase from 25.0% in 2012 to
30.0% in 2017 as internet penetration rates rise. Consequently, the industry
share of the in-store market is anticipated to decline from 75.0% in 2012 to
70.0% in 2017.
