Advito Forecasts International Business Class Fares to Rise More Than 5% Year-over-Year in Q4

On October 2, 2026, travel consulting firm Advito released its fourth-quarter travel price index, forecasting international business class fares to rise at least 5% year-over-year, with increases in some markets far exceeding economy class. Among these, international business class fares in North America and Europe are each expected to rise 6% year-over-year, with business class on North America-to-Europe routes rising 7%, while economy class rises only 2%. On the hotel side, the global average daily rate for the fourth quarter is expected to rise 3.9% year-over-year, but regional divergence is pronounced, with increases in Latin America and the Southwest Pacific far above the global average, while Asia and the Middle East turn to negative growth.
