SUMMARY:Second International Skal Roma Golf Challenge 2023
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, October 7\, 2023\, at the Golf Club Fioranello the Skal Club of Rome will hold the Second International Skal Roma Golf Challenge at the Golf Club Fioranello\, near Rome.\n\n\n\nThe Ryder Cup in 2023 could mark the definitive national and international launch of golf in Italy. According to experts\, this event will change the history of golf in Italy. \n\n\n\nThe first Ryder Cup was held in 1927\, and it was named after the tournament’s organizer\, Samuel Ryder. \n\n\n\nSince then\, the best 12 European and American golfers have met on alternating continents every two years. There are no monetary prizes\, but the game is played solely for the sake of honour and prestige. \n\n\n\nThe most recent edition\, held in France in 2018\, drew over 270\,000 spectators and was broadcast live to over 600 million homes across more than 160 countries. \n\n\n\nThe Ryder Cup will be held in Rome this year at the Golf Club Marco Simone from Friday\, September 29 to Sunday\, October 1\, 2023. 50\,000 spectators from all over the world are expected each day. It should be noted that this is the most prestigious international golf competition\, ranked third in importance and popularity after the Olympics and the World Cup. \n\n\n\nThe Skal of Rome\, which has been promoting golf in the capital for many years\, couldn’t help but support this great event by re-proposing the international Skal golf competition that was so successful last year. \n\n\n\nTo that end\, the Skal Club of Rome has announced the “Second International Skal Roma Golf Challenge 2023” which will be held on Saturday\, October 7\, 2023\, at the Golf Club Fioranello. \n\n\n\nThe Skal golf competition has been added immediately after the Ryder Cup in the hopes that Skalleagues who have come to Rome to participate in the aforementioned event will extend their vacation by a few days to compete in the international golf competition organized by the Skal of Rome. \n\n\n\nMore information\, including organizational and logistical ideas\, will be communicated shortly. \n\n\n\nContacts for more information: \n\n\n\nSk.

SUMMARY:Forecast on 2023 summer tourism - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Raffaele Pasquini\, marketing manager of Rome Airport\, will share with us the scheduling forecasted for next summer. \n\n\n\nAre we back to pre-Covid time volumes?  \n\n\n\nWhat is changing? \n\n\n\nReal data will be discussed and it will be an excellent tool for our business! \n\n\n\nAir transport has undergone significant changes over the past five years\, driven by a combination of technological advancements\, shifting consumer preferences\, and global events such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Here are some key trends that have emerged in air transport over the past five years\, based on data from the International Air Transport Association (IATA) and other sources: \n\n\n\n\nGrowing demand for air travel: Despite occasional dips in demand due to factors such as the pandemic and geopolitical tensions\, air travel has continued to grow steadily over the past five years. In 2019\, global passenger traffic reached 4.5 billion\, up from 3.8 billion in 2016 (IATA).\n\n\n\nThe emergence of low-cost carriers: Low-cost carriers (LCCs) have continued to gain market share over the past five years\, with some of the biggest players such as Ryanair and Southwest Airlines experiencing significant growth. In 2019\, LCCs accounted for 28% of global air traffic\, up from 22% in 2014 (CAPA).\n\n\n\nTechnological advancements: The past five years have seen significant technological advancements in air transport\, with airlines and airports investing in everything from biometric scanning to autonomous baggage handling. According to a report by the Air Transport Action Group\, the aviation industry invested $170 billion in technology in 2019 alone.\n\n\n\nEnvironmental concerns: The aviation industry has faced increasing pressure to address its environmental impact over the past five years\, with concerns around carbon emissions and noise pollution. According to the IATA\, the industry has committed to achieving carbon-neutral growth from 2020 and reducing net carbon emissions to half of 2005 levels by 2050.\n\n\n\nImpact of COVID-19: The COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound impact on air transport\, with global passenger traffic dropping by 66% in 2020 compared to 2019 (IATA). While there are signs of a gradual recovery in 2021\, the pandemic has highlighted the vulnerability of the aviation industry and the need for greater resilience.\n\n\n\n\nIn conclusion\, air transport has undergone significant changes over the past five years\, with growth in demand\, the emergence of low-cost carriers\, technological advancements\, environmental concerns\, and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic all shaping the industry. As air transport continues to evolve\, it will be important for airlines and airports to stay abreast of these trends and adapt their strategies accordingly to remain competitive and sustainable. \n\n\n\nZoom link: \n\n\n\nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/86220971006?pwd=NzQzY0wrak80L2Nhb2JNRHpiQmJvZz09
