Marriott International has increased its full-year revenue growth forecast, anticipating that strong travel demand will significantly boost bookings across its properties.
The company expects revenue per available room (revPAR) to grow between 4.5% and 5% for the upcoming year. This revised forecast marks an increase from its previous projection of a 3% to 3.5% rise.
