Just returned from exercising my right to #vote with an underwhelming feeling that I've never felt less engaged in any #election. It seems from Air France's substantial drop in share price and revenue warning, their bet on #Paris24 is going South fast and the World is not quite connected to what will go on in #Paris starting in less than a month. You have to love their #PR spiel when they say, “International markets show a significant avoidance of Paris.” The connection between my lack of interest in the #UKElection and Air France's financial woes may seem a bit of a stretch but an underlying issue for us all is there is just too much stuff going on, from geopolitics to all things sport and entertainment, bombarded at us by a rabid daily media cycle and insistent social media churn, that for a lot of us it becomes a challenge to focus on any one thing. That's before we even start to think of the dramas that go on in our personal and professional lives. For the sports industry and its fans, who are this week focused on the #Euros, #Wimbledon, #F1, #Rugby, #TourdeFrance, etc., there is little time for the #Olympics at the moment. Let's hope that will come sometime before July 26, but it is also why in all this clutter sports rights holders need to create meaningful differences to stand out from the crowd that actually excite people.

Olympic Price Surge: Paris Hotels Triple Rates for 2024 Opening Ceremony https://ift.tt/kjKMOoG Hotels in Paris are tripling their prices to over €1,000 on average for the opening night of the 2024 Olympic Games, according to a study by consumer organisation UFC-Que Choisir. The study, based on a late-December poll of 80 three and four-star hotels, revealed that on the night of July 26, the day of the Olympics’ opening ceremony, the average cost of a double room will be €1,033. This is a significant increase compared to the average of €317 two weeks earlier on the night of July 12. A total of 50 per cent of these hotels reported being completely booked that night, while 30 per cent required a minimum booking of at least two nights, and others asked for as many as five nights, as reported by Reuters. The average required minimum stay was 3.4 days for an average cost of €867 per night, according to UFC. Olympic room rates! Paris hotels are not holding back, their room rates are on fire. UFC It noted that the three-star hotel had increased prices for a double room to €2,083 in comparison to €304 two weeks earlier. At the same time, one four-star hotel required a minimum booking of four nights at €2,095 per night. According to Reuters, the Paris tourism office expects nearly 16 million visitors in the broader Paris region for the Olympics and Paralympics, thus creating increased demand for housing and hotels. Airbnb has encouraged Parisians to rent out their homes during the games in order to help keep prices down. In the Seine-Saint-Denis area north of Paris, where the Olympic Village is being built, a large number of migrants, asylum seekers and Roma squatting in empty buildings have been forced to leave, thus worsening the city’s homelessness issue. France will become the first country in the EU to make the application procedures for a French Schengen Visa completely online and issue visas to about 70,000 applicants who will be participating in the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games. From January this year, France has introduced a new system called the “Olympic Consulate”. This system will process applications for nearly 15,000 international athletes, 9,000 journalists as well as delegations from foreign states participating in the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games. It [the system] is indeed necessary to guarantee the issuance of visas within timeframes compatible with the successful organisation of the Games.

The 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris will host 10,500 athletes from 206 nations, marking the largest event ever organized in France! 🏃♂️🥇 Flight bookings to Paris have surged 125% for the Olympics compared to the previous year, with many travelers planning to leave right after the games due to limited vacation time. Historically, the U.S. has led in medal counts, which may contribute to the demand as American travelers make up 23.8% of Olympic-period bookings. Parisians, meanwhile, are opting for staycations in other French destinations like Lille, Nice, Corsica, Lyon, and Toulouse, with hotel bookings up 49% from the previous year.

An extra three million people are expected in Paris for the Olympic Games in 2024 increasing tourism spending by up to EUR4 billion, reveals a Euromonitor International expert. The highly successful Rugby Union World Cup which has just played out in Paris served as a dress rehearsal for next summer’s Olympics which will bring many opportunities but also challenges for the French tourism industry. With a forecasted 4 billion global television audience, the country will be front and centre in the worldwide spotlight. Alexander Göransson, Senior Consultant at Euromonitor International, in his report Paris 2024 Olympics Games: Challenges and Opportunities for French Tourism, said the Paris Games are expected to attract 15 million spectators, many locals and domestic day trippers, but forecasted up to 3 million additional visitors in Paris in 2024. Short-term rentals will play a key role as the sector is more elastic in terms of capacity than hotels. As of April 2023, it was reported that 1,000 Parisian hosts were taking bookings on Airbnb for the weeks of the Games but this is expected to grow exponentially, while hosts are increasing their prices by a factor of three during the Olympic weeks. The Games will also provide a boost to transportation providers and consumer food outlets, who will be catering for both day trippers and overnight visitors Alexander Göransson said: “The true benefits of a successful Paris 2024, watched by a massive global television audience, will be felt in subsequent years. Unlike during the Olympics itself, this will benefit the overall tourism economy and not just hospitality, with Euromonitor International expecting a steady increase in inbound visitors to France and its capital city from 2025.”
