No Vacancy With Glenn Haussman

The world's biggest hotel development story isn't in the U.S. or Europe — it's in Asia-Pacific. I connected with Bruce Ford, SVP at Lodging Econometrics, to break down the data behind the region's record-setting pipeline growth — from China's near–million-room surge to luxury expansion across Indonesia and Thailand. We examine the factors shaping this boom on #NoVacancyNews, including how master franchise deals, soft brand launches, and Western brand expansion are redefining the region, while construction delays from the pandemic are now converting into a flood of new openings.
