The Traveller Accommodation Services Price Index (TASPI) decreased 11.0% in the fourth quarter from the previous quarter. The leisure clients (-13.4%) and the business clients (-8.9%) components both posted declines.

Year over year, the TASPI rose 2.3% in the fourth quarter compared with the same quarter of 2013. An increase in both leisure clients (+3.1%) and business clients (+1.5%) components contributed to this change.

  Note to readers

The Traveller Accommodation Services Price Index measures the monthly price movement for the accommodation services. This index reflects changes in room rates for overnight or short stays with no meals or other services provided and excluding all indirect taxes.

Separate index aggregations are available for Canada, the provinces and the territories by major client group.

The index is not subject to revision and not seasonally adjusted.

The Traveller Accommodation Services Price Index for the first quarter will be released on April 30.
