TRAVEL AND TOURISM SPENDING DECELERATED IN THE SECOND QUARTER OF 2013
Real spending on travel and tourism decelerated in the second quarter of 2013, increasing at an annual
rate of 2.5 percent after increasing 7.3 percent (revised) in the first quarter of 2013. By comparison,
growth in real gross domestic product (GDP) accelerated, increasing 2.5 percent (second estimate) in the
second quarter after increasing 1.1 percent in the first quarter.
The leading contributors to the deceleration in the second quarter were “passenger air transportation,” and
“all other transportation-related commodities.” “Passenger air transportation” decelerated, increasing
15.4 percent in the second quarter after increasing 26.9 percent; growth in both domestic and international
passenger air transportation slowed. “All other transportation-related commodities” turned down in the
second quarter, decreasing 1.0 percent after increasing 5.8 percent, primarily reflecting a downturn in
“automotive rental and leasing.”
Overall growth in prices for travel and tourism goods and services turned down in the second quarter of
2013, decreasing 2.9 percent following a 0.4 percent (revised) increase in the first quarter. The second
quarter downturn in prices was concentrated in transportation goods and services, primarily reflecting
larger decreases in prices for both “passenger air transportation” and gasoline.

Employment in the travel and tourism industries increased 3.4 percent in the second quarter of 2013 after
increasing 2.3 percent (revised) in the first quarter. By comparison, overall U.S. employment increased
1.7 percent in the second quarter after increasing 1.9 percent in the first quarter.

Real Tourism Spending. Real spending on
transportation goods and services decelerated,
increasing 5.1 percent in the second quarter of 2013
after increasing 13.4 percent in the first quarter.
Real spending on “traveler accommodations”
turned down, decreasing 0.2 percent in the second
quarter after increasing 4.6 percent in the first
quarter. Business travelers’ spending continued to
increase in the second quarter.

Tourism Prices. Prices for “passenger air
transportation” decreased 8.4 percent in the
second quarter of 2013 after decreasing 0.6
percent in the first quarter. Fuel costs decreased
from their previous highs. Prices for “all other
transportation-related commodities” decreased
11.1 percent in the second quarter after
decreasing 3.5 percent in the first quarter.

Tourism Employment. Employment in the
travel and tourism industries accelerated in the
second quarter of 2013, increasing 3.4 percent
after increasing 2.3 percent in the first quarter.
The primary contributors to the acceleration in
employment were “food services and drinking
places” and “air transportation services.”

Total Tourism-Related Spending in the U.S. includes the goods and services that are purchased
directly by tourists and also a portion of the goods and services produced by the supply chain that
supports tourism activity; for example, a firm that supplies linens to hotels and restaurants.
In the second quarter of 2013, total current-dollar tourism-related spending was $1.5 trillion and
consisted of $888.9 billion (59 percent) of direct tourism spending — goods and services sold directly
to visitors — and $607.4 billion (41 percent) of indirect tourism-related spending — goods and services
used to produce what visitors purchase.
Total Tourism-Related Employment was 8.0 million jobs in the second quarter of 2013 and consisted
of 5.7 million (71 percent) direct tourism jobs — jobs where workers produce goods and services sold
directly to visitors — and 2.3 million (29 percent) indirect tourism-related jobs — jobs where workers
produce goods and services used to produce what visitors purchase.

Definitions
Tourism spending. Tourism spending comprises all goods and services purchased by tourists (defined as
people who travel for any reason). In the following tables, tourism spending is referred to as direct
tourism output.
Indirect tourism-related spending. Indirect tourism-related spending comprises all output used as
inputs in the process of producing direct tourism output (e.g., toiletries for hotel guests and the plastic
used to produce souvenir key chains).
Total tourism-related spending. Total tourism-related spending is the sum of direct tourism spending
and indirect tourism-related spending.
Direct tourism employment. Direct tourism employment comprises all jobs where the workers are
engaged in the production of direct tourism output (such as hotel staff, airline pilots, and souvenir sellers).
Indirect tourism-related employment. Indirect tourism-related employment comprises all jobs where
the workers are engaged in the production of indirect tourism-related output (e.g., employees of
companies that produce toiletries for hotel guests and the plastic used to produce souvenir key chains).
Total tourism-related employment. Total tourism-related employment is the sum of direct tourism
employment and indirect tourism-related employment.

These statistics are from BEA’s Travel and Tourism Satellite Accounts (TTSAs), which are supported by
funding from the Office of Travel and Tourism Industries, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department
of Commerce. The current-price statistics of direct tourism output were derived from BEA’s annual TTSAs and
from current-price quarterly statistics of personal consumption expenditures from the National Income and
Product Accounts (NIPAs). The real statistics of direct tourism output were developed using price indexes from
the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) and real quarterly statistics of personal consumption expenditures from the
NIPAs. The statistics of direct tourism employment were derived from the annual TTSAs (revised in June
2013) from BEA, the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW), and Current Employment
Statistics (CES) from BLS.
Quarterly statistics are seasonally adjusted and expressed at annual rates, unless otherwise specified. Percent
changes are calculated from unrounded data and annualized. Real values are in chained (2005) dollars. Price
indexes are Fisher chain-type measures. Growth in overall U.S. employment is calculated using BLS total
nonfarm employment from Current Employment Statistics, www.bls.gov/ces/home.htm#data.
