These five charts illustrate trends in important industries that help track reopening progress in the U.S. amid the coronavirus pandemic.
National hotel occupancy sits at just below 50%, up 1% from a week ago, according to data from the global hospitality research company STR. Comparatively, U.S. occupancy in July 2019 was at 73.8%. The average daily cost for a hotel room continued the trend of rising by about $1 each week, now at just over $100. Norfolk/Virginia Beach, Virginia remained a top travel market – and the only to reach 60% capacity – as it has been for most of the summer.
The number of passengers traveling through airport security checkpoints is still anywhere between 20% and 30% of what it was last year, data from the Transportation Security Administration shows. Although there were some signs of life in early July with some days nearing 40% of the same days last year, numbers have continued to sit down at about a fourth of prior years.
