[TD=class: cdTextOnLeftRightContainer cdTextContent] Spotlight on South Australia in the UK

64,000 people travelled to South Australia from the United Kingdom in the year ending December 2015, up 7 per cent on last year. UK is one of our key markets and the SATC has recently completed two initiatives in the market to continue to encourage people from the UK to travel to South Australia and to increase awareness of South Australia as an appealing Australian destination.

• Ultratravel is a quarterly luxury travel magazine that is distributed with The Telegraph. An editorial feature on South Australia’s aquatic and coastal story features in this quarter’s edition as part of a wider Tourism Australia editorial piece surrounding the recent There’s Nothing Like Australia Aquatic and Coastal campaign. The article can be viewed from page 76 here.
  
• Observer Food Monthly is one of the most influential food and wine publications in the UK. Eight pages of editorial has been created to feature in the magazine telling South Australia’s food and wine story to a large UK audience. The content can also be found on The Guardian’s website.

This is really good news for tourism and trade:

 

The inaugural Qatar Airway’s flight from Doha to Adelaide has touched down at Adelaide Airport this afternoon; the first flight of the new direct daily services between the two cities.

 

The landing marks a great milestone for South Australia with the international airline set to generate an additional $41 million into South Australia’s economy and create 228 jobs across the state.

 

Today’s landing also marked an Australian first with Qatar Airways flying the world’s most modern plane, the A350-900, into Adelaide – the first time this aircraft has ever been in Australia.

 

Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive, His Excellency Mr. Akbar Al Baker was on board the inaugural flight leading a delegation of Qatar Airways VIPs. His Excellency will host a press conference tomorrow morning followed by a Gala Dinner in the evening to celebrate the milestone.

 

The daily flight schedule is as follows:

 

DOH-ADL QR914 Departs: 2055 Arrives: 1625+1

ADL-DOH QR 915 Departs: 2130 Arrives: 0450+1

 

International visitors are vital to South Australia’s economy and tourism industry. To the year ending December 2015, South Australia welcomed an all-time high of 408,000 international visitors into the state. Importantly, these visitors spent a record $897 million. The new direct daily flights will provide international visitors with more choice when choosing to travel to South Australia and will also open up new links for South Australia to the Middle East as well as connect South Australia to more than 30 European destinations.

 

Not only will the Qatar Airways flights bring tourists to South Australia, but the return flights present the chance to fill the A350-900’s cargo holds with as much as 80 tonnes of premium South Australian produce.

 

We are actively engaged in international marketing campaigns to enable the success of this route, by working closely with Qatar Airways and Tourism Australia.

 

The South Australian Tourism Commission is committed to increasing demand for South Australia internationally as we work towards the goal of an $8 billion tourism industry by 2020.

 

Regards,

South Australian Tourism Commission

It looks like the introductory fares will go up in price in a few weeks time....

 

Qatar Airways cheaper for Adelaide fares, but not for long

 

57 minutes agoValerina ChangarathilThe Advertiser

 

 

First flight of Qatar Airways landing at Adelaide Airport. Picture: Campbell Brodie.

• TOURISM MINISTER: Forget Qantas, fly the airlines that support SA
  
• TRAVEL: On board Australia’s first ‘no-jet lag’ plane
  
• 
  

QATAR Airway’s cheaper “honeymoon” fares will run out in 12 weeks with the Middle Eastern airline planning to increase prices later in the year as well as reduce capacity on its Adelaide service.

Qatar Airways Group chief executive Akbar Al Baker said the airline was in the “business of making money”.

“Our yields today are lower than our competition, but this is only introductory.

“As we get established then we start increasing our fares because we want to give you a high-standard product and with that high standard product also, you have to pay the right price,” Mr Al Baker said.

“An airline has to sustain itself with the correct yield.”

An international shortage of delivery of A350s also means the airline will have to reduce its capacity to Adelaide over a period of three months “at some point this year” as it diverts those aircraft to service other new routes.

 

It means Qatar will operate six flights instead of seven per week as it reduces frequency from several parts of its international network.

The entry of Qatar into the South Australian market was tipped to push prices down for customers, but this is likely to be only for a short time.

Travel agency Flight Centre’s fare comparisons yesterday showed ex-Adelaide pricing for Qatar flights to key tourist destinations in the first week of June were cheaper than most competitors, but this is likely to change later in the year.

At today’s press conference, Tourism Minister Leon Bignell and Mr Al Baker exchanged gifts.

Mr Bignell reiterated Qatar’s entry would add $41 million a year to the local economy and create 228 jobs.

On the sidelines, Mr Bignell said he had no regrets about comments he made yesterday urging South Australians to “send a message” to Qantas by choosing to fly with direct international operators.

“I have been saying the same thing for three years,” Mr Bignell said today.

He also commended the “great work of Qantas” on the domestic routes, especially Port Lincoln and Whyalla, and welcomed discussion on more services, including to Kangaroo Island.

Qantas, including chief executive Alan Joyce, is understood to be “extremely disappointed” with the comments.

Qantas could not confirm if Mr Joyce had contacted Premier Jay Weatherill, as intended, to voice his displeasure.

The Premier’s office confirmed it had not heard from Qantas or Mr Joyce and Mr Weatherill declined to comment on the matter.

More news from SA Tourism...... The origin of our visitors and the % increase is interesting!

 

 

We are thrilled to announce that international visitors’ expenditure in South Australia has reached a record high.

 

The results released today by the Federal Government show that South Australia is performing exceptionally well and above the national averages. The following are the key results:

 

• Expenditure in South Australia is up 38 per cent, reaching a record high of $954 million and surpassing the national growth rate of 17 per cent.
  
• A growth of 13 per cent in visitor nights also surpasses the national growth rate of 7.6 per cent.
  
• International visitors have grown by 7.6 per cent, climbing to an all-time high of 410,000.
  
• International visitor expenditure from Asia is up 44 per cent, with China leading the way up 34 per cent.
  
• Holiday and Visiting Friends and Relatives expenditure has also increased by 36 per cent and 19 per cent respectively.
  

 

The additional funds, courtesy of the 2015/16 State Budget, has enabled the South Australian Tourism Commission (SATC) to initiate more than 90 international campaigns to increase awareness and consumer demand for South Australia. These additional funds have allowed the SATC to also shift more of its focus onto key emerging markets, like China, and the results today show that this is proving to be affective.

 

Today’s results compliment other positive announcements. South Australia recently welcomed Qatar Airways commencing daily flights, and we have made giant strides towards access between mainland China and Adelaide with the signing on an MOU with China Southern Airlines.

 

Importantly, the results today reflect the hard work from the Government, the SATC, and importantly industry, to grow the visitor economy in our State.

Here are the local figures... Tourism is such a big part of our local economy.....

 

 

South Australia’s visitor economy has reached an all-time high of $5.73 billion to the year ending March 2016, up 6.9 per cent on the previous year. This welcomed news comes as the Federal Government released the National Visitor Survey (NVS) results this morning.

 

Key results from the NVS show that at 5.954 million visitors, South Australia has recorded its highest level of visits on record. These visitors stayed a total of 21.036 million nights. Other key results are:

• Domestic expenditure has reached an all-time high of $4.8 billion, up 2.3 per cent.
  
• Day Trips are up 7.5 per cent to 12.415 million.
  
• Visits to regional South Australia are up 6.7 per cent to 3.7 million, accounting for 62 per cent of all domestic visitor nights.
  
• South Australia has seen a rise from its major markets driven by Victoria, New South Wales, and Queensland.
  

 

The results today are a great milestone for South Australia.

 

The additional funds received from the 2015/16 State Budget has allowed the SATC to be more active and creative in our approach domestically. Recently we have hosted national programs, such as the Today Show and The Project. We have also partnered with Virgin Australia and Fairfax Media to better promote our state to the nation. And our events, both major and sponsored, continue to inspire Australians to visit our State and our wonderful regions.

 

For more information on the latest NVS results, or research and insights on your specific region, visit our corporate website.

 

We have attached an infographic created showcasing our results. Please feel free to share with your contacts.

South Australian Tourism Commission

The Australian Tourism Export Council (ATEC) has released an Online Health & Safety Checklist that provides a one-stop information point for the collection of business health and safety information for suppliers and wholesalers. The checklist will streamline administration requirements for the Australian inbound tourism industry with key benefits including:

• Suppliers only need to complete the information once and this information can then be accessed by a number of participating wholesalers and inbound tour operators.
  
• Travel buyers (international wholesalers and Australian based ITOs) have convenient, online access to an up-to-date list of travel suppliers who have completed checklists.

They haven't revealed how much it cost but bringing this Chinese airline into Adelaide with direct flights will have a positive effect upon tourism numbers...

 

 

We are delighted to announce that an agreement has been signed today between the State Government and China Southern Airlines, securing direct flights between Adelaide and mainland China. The airline will operate three direct flights per week between Adelaide and Guangzhou beginning in December 2016. The service will generate an estimated $23.4 million into South Australia’s visitor economy, creating more than 135 jobs across the state. [TABLE]

[TD=class: yiv5577193538cdTextContent] The benefits of the direct flight extends beyond just tourism and has huge economic impact on trade, with the service estimated to generate $22 million into our state, also creating further jobs. The tourism and trade opportunity is estimated at $45.4 million. The announcement follows the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding between the State Government and China Southern Airlines in April this year.

 

To the year ending March 2016 South Australia welcomed 34,000 Chinese visitors. Importantly, these visitors spent $211 million. Projections show that if we take full advantage of the opportunity presented, we could see an estimated 57,000 Chinese visitors with expenditure in South Australia of $450 million by 2020. On average, Chinese visitors spend $5300.00 per visit- the highest of any international visitor.

 

With direct access between mainland China and Adelaide, business and investment opportunities have the chance to grow as well as our international education sector and trade.

 

Chinese visitors want what South Australia has on offer - with world class and authentic experiences, such as our premium food and wine and nature and wildlife, all highly accessible from Adelaide.

 

China Southern Airlines is the world’s third largest airlines based on passenger movement and operates more than 680 domestic and international aircraft. It will be the second major international airline to commence international flights into Adelaide in 2016.

 

With the addition of China Southern, four new international routes will have begun flying out of Adelaide since 2011. International seat numbers have increased by 66 per cent since 2012. We look forward to enhancing visitation through airlines such as Singapore Airlines, Malaysia Airlines, Qatar Airways, China Southern and Cathay Pacific Airways – all critical partners in growing the visitor economy.

[TD=class: yiv1938409724cdTextContent] Hi

 

We are thrilled to share the news that 4,000 new jobs have been created in the tourism sector between June 2013 and June 2015.

 

South Australia also outperformed all states and territories with jobs growth of 13.8% - well above the national average of 5.0% for June 2013 to June 2015.

 

The State Tourism Satellite Accounts which will be released by Tourism Research Australia later this week shows tourism now employs 35,700 people in our state.

 

Tourism is a major contributor to our economy and we are now well on our way to achieving our goal of 10,000 additional jobs by 2020.

 

This fantastic result is a reflection of the hard work and commitment of South Australia’s tourism industry.

China is currently South Australia’s number one tourism market by expenditure and number four by visitor volume. With the introduction of China Southern in December, the China opportunity is stronger than ever. In response to the need to be ready for the increase in Chinese visitors, the South Australian Tourism Commission will be running a series of ‘Understanding China’ workshops to help local tourism operators and businesses better understand the Chinese traveller. Developed following a review of the current market by leading tourism expert, Richard Beere, Director of Fastrak Asian Solutions, the workshops aim to provide insight on how to grow and enhance Chinese visitor experiences as well as assist you in better understanding the realities and requirements of this market. The first workshops will take place this week. For more information please visit the ‘Understanding China Workshops’ section on our corporate website.[/TD]

[/TR]

[TR]

[TD=align: center]1 - 16 October 2016

School holidays are nearly upon us! Luckily there's a lot happening around South Australia this October to keep the kids out of trouble and protect parents' sanity.

 

Though at its tail-end, OzAsia runs until 2 October, with concerts and events galore. A number of family-friendly markets are springing to life, as well as Carclew workshops, Adelaide Aquatic Centre Open Day festivities, a kids' film festival and State Theatre's Rumpelstiltskin!

 

Jump on the tram and head to Glenelg, check out the South Australian Museum or round-up the rabble and set off on a family roadtrip. Need more school holiday inspo? Check out our family activities guide here.[/TD]

[TD=class: yiv7308112336cdTextContent] Hi

 

New figures show the 2015-16 cruise ship season injected a record-breaking $26.9 million into our state’s visitor economy – up $10.8 million from the previous year.

 

In the 2015-16 cruise ship season we welcomed 37 cruise ship visits to South Australian ports with 80,241 passengers and crew on board.

 

While the 2016-17 season is shaping up to be the biggest yet with 52 cruise ship visits to South Australian ports expected. This exceeds the State Government’s 2020 target of 43 cruise ship visits to South Australia three years early.
