Executive summary

The decline in arrivals flattens out

The number of international arrivals, ie tourists who spend at least one night in Andorra, fell dramatically during the review period as a whole. However, 2007 effectively saw similar levels to 2006 and so, after many years, the number of visitors stabilised.

Andorra Airport in 2012?

In May 2007, having deliberated for some years over the problem of accessibility by air, the Andorran government acquired 85% of land from the owner of an unused airstrip at La Seu d’Urgell, which is around 25km from Andorra la Vella, in Spain. The runway on the site, which currently houses a private airstrip, would be lengthened to a size which is sufficient for medium-sized jets from Northwestern and Central Europe.

For now, shopping dominates travel and tourism

Since 1999, day trippers have been responsible for the overwhelming majority of all visits to Andorra. Indeed, Andorra has become more reliant on this type of visitor as the number of tourists has declined. Shopping is the main reason for day trippers to come to Andorra but Andorra also attracts visitors for sports, nature and general leisure purposes.

Andorra has a specific customs union with France and Spain, which enables much higher personal imports than from, say Gibraltar, a similar tax-free haven adjoining Spain. The higher limit has certainly helped prop up the travel and tourism industry in Andorra.

Andorra’s supply of accommodation begins to match demand

With a stable average duration of stay and declining numbers of tourists, overall demand for accommodation was falling but this was not matched by a reduction in supply. This started to happen in 2006, with a withdrawal of some accommodation supply. No change in supply is envisaged for some years until the new airport increases demand both in terms of visitor numbers and an increase in average nights spent in the Principality.
