Meanwhile, an increase in the number of accommodation days and improved occupancy rates YoY will support a mid-double-digit growth in the company's accommodation revenue for 2Q.However, growth in the transportation business may decelerate in 2Q due to a slowdown in domestic air passenger traffic in June. Considering the persistent weakness in business travel and the rebound in domestic air ticket prices, this trend may persist into the summer.UBS raised its target price for TONGCHENGTRAVEL from HKD24.5 to HKD25.5, with a Buy rating kept unchanged.(HK stocks quote is delayed for at least 15 mins.Short Selling Data as at 2025-07-18 12:25.)
