The Forward Outlook resource indicates the current levels of accommodation occupancy in Queenstown.
This is based on collated information from multiple data sets covering commercial and non-commercial accommodation. Its weighted predominantly on currently booked forward occupancy and predictive forward booking data. The objective of this resource is to provide a view of potential occupancy levels to guide decisions and suggestions for clients to come at a time when Queenstown will deliver an optimal visitor experience.
What does this graph show
This graph displays the forward outlook demand (occupancy %) (dark blue columns) and the lines represent actual recorded occupancy levels. The graph is predominantly based on actual, on-the-books bookings – so the further out you get the more “light” it will look. It's best to look at the overarching trend, and if you can see there are “spikes” it's safe to assume there will be “busier” times.
