Middle East Crisis: Impact on European Suppliers and Destinations (3rd Edition)

Introduction

This survey is for suppliers and DMOs in Europe. All contributions are confidential. We only share aggregated data.

The questions address how the crisis and its consequences are affecting destinations and the supply chain - directly and indirectly - through factors such as cancellations and re-bookings, rising costs, client confidence, and impact of uncertainty on planning.

It is the third edition (27 July to 02 August 2026) so, even if you completed an earlier version, please respond so we can track progress and continue to provide current insight to European policy makers on industry impact, response and needs.

DMCs may wish to complete this survey in addition to the 'buyer' survey, as they will have valuable perspectives on supply and demand.
