The new financial year has started well with sales strengthening further to an average of 104% of 2019 levels in the first eight weeks, including revenues tracking above 2019 levels in North America, Continental Europe and the Rest of the World. This revenue performance includes the benefit from net contract gains and price increases compared to the same period in 2019. In North America, revenues are now at 131%, reflecting the ongoing recovery in domestic air travel and the strength of net gains. In Continental Europe, revenues are at 108%, with most markets performing <mark style="background-color:yellow">strong</mark>ly, boosted by an extended holiday season which has helped both the Air and Rail sectors. In the Rest of the World, revenues are at 106% and continuing to recover well, with strong performances in India, Australia, Thailand and Egypt partially offset by the impact of very low passenger numbers in China and Hong Kong. In the UK, sales are at 84% reflecting the higher rail to air mix of business, with the rail sector recovering more slowly.
