Amadeus ganó 313,9 millones de euros en el primer trimestre de 2024, cifra un 19,6% superior a los 262,4 millones de euros del mismo periodo del año anterior, gracias al crecimiento de dos dígitos de sus segmentos de actividad. Según un estudio elaborado por Condé Nast Johansesn, el 60% de los viajeros de alta gama son mujeres de entre 55 y 75 años, cuya renta anual supera los 95.000 euros y de los cuales destina alrededor de 8.000 euros para viajar.
