Suppliers are rapidly increasing their capacity to meet demand and are increasingly competitive in winning market share.\u00a0<\/em>\". The study published by American Express GBT points in particular to the aggressive expansion of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/en\/low-cost-aerien-20171205.html\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>low-cost carriers<\/strong><\/a> which, coupled with low oil prices, will help to keep airfares down.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_69609\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-69609\" style=\"width: 700px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/American-Express-GBT-previsions-2018.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-69609\" src=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/American-Express-GBT-previsions-2018.jpg\" alt=\"American Express GBT\" width=\"700\" height=\"259\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/American-Express-GBT-previsions-2018.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/American-Express-GBT-previsions-2018-300x111-derived.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-69609\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Airfare, hotel and car rental forecasts for the EMEA region<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>On the other hand, the hotel industry could well put more pressure on travel budgets.
