In 2023, the number of employees in the travel agency, tour operator, reservation service, and related activities sector in France stood at an estimate slightly above the 40,000 mark. Over the forecast period from 2024 to 2028, a gradual decline in employment is projected, decreasing from approximately 40,240 employees in 2024 to 38,930 by 2028. This represents a cumulative decrease, with the year-on-year variation illustrating a consistent downward trend. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years suggests a modest average annual decline.

Future trends to consider include:

The impact of digital transformation and automation on employment requirements in this sector.
Potential recovery or further decline influenced by global travel demand and economic stability.
Regulatory changes and consumer behavior shifts towards sustainable travel that could alter staffing needs.
