has between one and five million. There is massive potential for Latin American
countries to increase these numbers.” Scowsill praised many of the developments
that have taken place in Latin America in recent years and called on the region’s tourism leaders to maintain the momentum. He singled out the aviation developments in
the region: “It is impressive what is happening in South America with the movement towards Open Skies as the headwinds of deregulation, privatisation, alliances and consolidation are sweeping through the region’s aviation industry. “Equally impressive is the evolution of the airlines, which under private ownership have found ways around the restrictive bi-lateral agreements and airline ownership rules to operate a real commercial operation. AviancaTaca and LATAM are proving shining, profitable examples that the rest of the world should be following. “We congratulate LAN and TAM on their
merger last year, trailblazing the way forwards in order to create your own ‘open skies’ as far as possible, and operate more profitably and efficiently, despite the region’s fragmented regulatory framework.” But he warned an overhaul of regulatory
systems is necessary. “Rules governing pilot hours, and transfer
of crews between subsidiaries for example are making it harder for LATAM to compete with carriers from other regions,” Scowsill said. “Latin America faces many challenges over
the next five to ten years in terms of investing in infrastructure, encouraging hotel development, and overhauling outdated civil aviation frameworks in order to ensure long term travel and tourism economic growth.”

ACCOR GROUP AND LATIN AMERICA Accor Group, WTM Latin America’s headline sponsor, is aiming to grow its business in the Latin America region and take advantage of the increased profile and interest this year’s football World Cup and the 2016 Olympics and Paralympics will bring.
It plans for a US$1.5 billion expansion to increase its Brazilian portfolio to 250 properties over four years. Emanuel Baudart, Latin America sales marketing and distribution director for Accor, said: “WTM Latin America facilitates professional contact with a variety of players and offers the opportunity of meetings organised in advance with qualified international buyers, which is definitely an attraction for our company.

WTM Latin America Latin America Airlines
Latin American airlines are expected to post a US$ 1 billion profit for 2014, according to the International Air Transport Association (IATA). This is US$ 500 million less than previously
projected, following a weaker than expected improvement in 2013. But the outcome this year is still more than double the US$ 400 million profit recorded in 2013. Poor economic performance in Argentina and Brazil are the main drivers of the reduced profitability expectations, along with the continued political and social unrest in Venezuela. An improved industry structure achieved through consolidation (within Brazil and across borders) and a closer matching of capacity to demand are driving improvements over the 2013 performance.
a TAM por su fusión, el año pasado, lo que les abrió el camino para crear sus propios ‘cielos
abiertos’ por la mayor distancia posible y para operar de manera más lucrativa y eficiente, a pesar de la fragmentada estructura reglamentaria de la región.” Pero él advirtió que es necesaria una reforma de
los sistemas de reglamentación. “Las reglas que rigen las horas de trabajo de los pilotos y la transferencia de tripulaciones entre subsidiarias, por ejemplo, están dificultando la competencia de LATAM con compañías de otras regiones”, afirmó Scowsill. “América Latina tiene muchos retos por la frente en los próximos cinco a diez años, en términos de invertir en infraestructura, incentivar el desarrollo de los hoteles y reformar estructuras de aviación civil obsoletas, a los efectos de asegurar el crecimiento económico de los viajes y del turismo a largo plazo.”

Compañías Aéreas Se prevé que las compañías aéreas latinoamericanas divulguen un lucro de US$ 1.000 millones referente a 2014, de acuerdo con la Asociación Internacional de Transporte Aéreo (International Air Transport Association – IATA). Ese valor es US$ 500 millones inferior a lo
previsto anteriormente y se debe a un progreso menor que lo esperado en 2013. Asimismo, el resultado de este año es más que el doble de los US$ 400 millones de lucro registrados en 2013. El débil desempeño económico de Argentina y de Brasil son los principales factores por detrás de las menores expectativas de lucratividad, juntamente con la continuidad de la agitación política y social en Venezuela. Una estructura mejor del sector, obtenida por medio de la consolidación (dentro de Brasil y más allá de las fronteras), y un casamiento más preciso de la capacidad con la demanda están impulsando el progreso en relación al desempeño de 2013.
