UK travel spending fell 3.3% year-on-year in March, ending a five-year growth streak and marking the first decline since March 2021. The Barclays Consumer Spend report (covering Feb 20–Mar 26; published Apr 17) attributes the dip to reduced consumer travel demand tied to the Iran conflict. Travel had been the standout non-essential category through 2024–2025, and that run has ended.

The 13 April Day 45 Iran War Travel Retail Report is now available to Air4casts clients via the special report link. Day 45 marks the most significant diplomatic reversal to date: the Islamabad peace talks collapsed after 21 hours of negotiations, with Vice President Vance leaving Pakistan without an agreement and Iran having “chosen not to accept our terms.” Within hours, President Trump announced a US naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, effective Monday 13 April at 10:00 a.m. ET, sending oil prices surging above $100 per barrel for the first time since the ceasefire-day collapse. The report analyzes implications for travel retail, energy markets, and geopolitical risk for operators and investors. Access the report via the special report link. https://zurl.co/0hFOK
