The tide may be about to rise again for Australia’s tourism industry, with delegates at the Australian Tourism Export Council’s (ATEC) recent national symposium growing in confidence and sighting some light at the end of the economic tunnel.
In this issue, we look at some of the developments arising from the conference, as well as ATEC’s suggestions that the industry should begin plans for recovery.
You’ll also find a massive 24-page report on Western Australia’s tourism industry that looks at why the state is defying many of the global tourism trends. There’s also some news on the products driving the change.
We also look at the Northern Territory’s re-emergence as a tourism hot spot.
After almost a decade of investment, Darwin is coming of age with a mass of new products and a sophisticated and vibrant lifestyle – along with a new wave-pool and some snapping crocs.
As well, you’ll find the usual wrap up of cruise and property developments as well as some business and marketing tips that can help push you into the black.
