Business Up and Leisure Down: A Shift in 2014 Spring Travel Intentions
Business Travel Claudette Covey February 26, 2014

For the first time in two years, a D.K. Shifflet & Associates (DKSA) survey has projected that business travel may outpace leisure travel this spring.
The company, which produces quarterly travel intention reports, said that the projected number of U.S. residents planning to travel for business is increasing, while the number of U.S. residents traveling for leisure is declining.
“It remains to be seen whether this is a trend or a one-time blip. Over the past several years, leisure outpaced business travel, so it is too soon to tell what this shift means,” said Chris Klauda, vice President at DKSA. “At least for now, we think this will translate into a nice, if unexpected, bump for business travel that will soften the potential decline in leisure travel.”
DKSA is a tourism and travel research company.
