Visitor spending, Europe

Data is moved to this table after being removed from the Travel Business Analyst newsletters and reports. Later data should therefore be included in the Market Outlook or Market Data sections of the current editions of newsletters. Tables showing latest results for all sectors (separate tables not available) can be purchased for US$30 for tables in the Asia Pacific edition, US$30 for tables in the Europe edition, or US$50 for both.

Some later data is now with visitor arrival tables.
