The accessible tourism opportunity

After a challenging few years, tourism businesses are looking for opportunities to recover and grow. The long-term strategy for Australia’s visitor economy, THRIVE 2030, nominates accessible tourism as a priority.

Accessible tourism benefits many travellers

Making your products or services more accessible to visitors can open new and valuable markets for your business. The accessible travel community includes people with a disability, a long-term health condition, or mobility needs. It also includes their entire travel party. Other visitors also benefit from improved access, such as:

• the elderly
• those with temporary needs, mobility issues, or medical conditions
• parents with prams
• multi-generational family groups.

Supporting tourism products and experiences that are accessible to people of all physical and cognitive capabilities, disabilities, age, and neurodiversity ensures consumer demand can be met. Accessibility increases opportunities for businesses.

James ‘Buck’ McFarlane is the Founder and Owner of ‘Cocky Guides’. His company creates tactile and sensory small group adventures for blind and low-vision travellers.

McFarlane describes how a focus on accessibility can improve the experience for everyone.

‘Consider the last time you were at a restaurant,’ he says. ‘To read the menu you may have had to put your glasses on, ask someone else to read it, or hold the menu under a light. Your experience would be better if the menu had a simple font, larger text, and a high contrast colour scheme.

‘This not only helps more than 550,000 low-vision Australians, it’s likely to help most of your guests!’

The accessible tourism market  

New data from Tourism Research Australia’s (TRA’s) National Visitor Survey shows that in 2021, travel groups including people with disability or a long-term health condition in Australia accounted for:

• $13.5 billion (17% of total) of domestic day and overnight trip spend
• 46.1 million domestic trips (19% of total).

Around 18% of Australians (or 4.4 million people) have a disability. An additional 22% (or 5.5 million) have a long-term health condition (Source: Australian Institute of Health and Welfare,  ‘People with Disability in Australia’ web report , last updated 5 July 2022).

A recent study has shown that travellers with disability in the US reported an average spend of US$500 more on leisure travel in the last 12 months, compared to those without disability (Source: MMGY Travel Intelligence, ‘ Portrait of Travelers with Disabilities: Mobility & Accessibility ’).  

On the ageing population, Austrade’s ‘ Opportunities for the Visitor Economy ’ report of June 2021, outlines that:

• by 2025, one in 8 international trips will be taken by a retiree aged 60 or above (Source: UN World Tourism Organization,  UNWTO Tourism Barometer , January 2016, Vol. 14; VISA,  Mapping the Future of Global Travel and Tourism , 2014)
• the size of the 60-plus market will almost double in the coming decade, as the global ageing population grows by 40% to 1.4 billion by 2030. They also have an increasing propensity to spend their retirement on travel (Source: United Nations,  World Population Prospects: the 2015 Revision )
• the older traveller is looking for comfortable accommodation, easy transitions through the ‘first and last mile’ of transport, and attractions with plenty of information available.

Accessibility and inclusion are Australian Government priorities

THRIVE 2030  sets out 7 priority areas to grow the visitor economy sector to A$230 billion by 2030. Priority 5 – to enhance visitor infrastructure – includes an action to develop assets, infrastructure and experiences that are accessible to all people, regardless of physical limitations, disability or age. Priority 6 – to build markets and attract visitors – includes actions to promote and market accessible infrastructure at destinations, accommodation, venues and experiences.  

Australia’s  Disability Strategy 2021 – 2031  is a national disability policy framework. It is driving action at all levels of government to improve the lives of people with disability. Importantly, it also aims to engage, inform and involve the whole community in achieving a more inclusive society.

Tourism Australia has  a range of resources to assist tourism businesses  on their accessibility journey.

Celebrating 35 years of tourism research australia.

For 35 years, Tourism Research Australia has worked with states and territories to generate data and intelligence on Australia’s visitor economy.

People with disability a valuable addition to the tourism workforce

Employing people with disability helps address shortages in the visitor economy workforce, develops skills and boosts the tourism industry.

Maintaining momentum for domestic tourism

The pandemic has encouraged Australians to rediscover their own country. The visitor economy can cultivate this trend.

Tourism forecasts for Australia

Summarises the outlook for domestic and international tourism in Australia.

Main content

Tourism forecasts for australia 2023 to 2028.

TRA produces tourism forecasts for Australia. This year, we produced:

• international forecasts at the national level and for many markets and purposes of travel
• domestic forecasts at the national level and for each state and territory. 

The forecasts cover the 5-year forward period, 2023 to 2028, on a calendar year basis. Forecast data are available to download at the bottom of this page.

The report contains a written summary and analysis of the forecast data. It presents an overview of the outlook and discusses the drivers and implications of the projected path forward for the tourism sector. It also notes some key risks to the forecasts.

Tourism forecasts for Australia 2023-2028

Visitor economy outlook

The report forecasts a positive outlook for the visitor economy. In the next 5 years, we predict both international and domestic tourism will continue to grow. We expect:

• international travel to Australia will exceed its pre-pandemic level in 2025 
• international spend in Australia will exceed its pre-pandemic level in 2024
• domestic travel will stabilise in 2023, after strong growth in 2022
• domestic tourism spend, which already exceeds its pre-pandemic level, will continue to rise
• domestic tourism nights in all states and territories will recover to pre-pandemic levels.

Our forecasting method

TRA produces forecasts using a hybrid, evidence-based approach. This method combines data-based analysis and modelling with expert judgement. Insights from the Tourism Forecasting Expert Panel are a critical component of TRA’s forecasting process. The Panel:

• offers long-standing support for TRA’s forecasting work
• is a source of broad-based, respected and constructive intelligence that informs the tourism forecasts
• comprises academics, industry and government specialists, and representatives from the state and territory tourism organisations
• provided input to this year’s forecasting work through survey responses, high-level discussions, and feedback on draft forecast data.
