内华达州克拉克县拉斯维加斯市美高梅10月29日财报电话会坦承定价权受损：机票油价上涨拖累夏季客房需求
内华达州克拉克县拉斯维加斯市的美高梅度假集团10月29日公布的业绩显示，拉斯维加斯大道夏季表现疲软，机票和汽油价格上涨导致客房需求下降。公司控制着拉斯维加斯大道约40%的酒店客房，首席执行官比尔·霍恩巴克在星期三的财报电话会上说，需要在燃油、汽油和机票价格上得到缓解。首席财务官乔纳森·哈尔克亚德列出逐月下滑：7月房价与上年同期大致持平，第三季度逐月恶化，10月有所缓解。会议业务在部分月份抵消了休闲需求的疲软，但整体而言，交通成本挤压了酒店的定价能力。
Las Vegas, Clark County, Nevada: MGM Resorts Acknowledges Lost Pricing Power on October 29 Earnings Call as Airfares and Fuel Prices Weigh on Summer Room Demand
MGM Resorts, in Las Vegas, Clark County, Nevada, reported on October 29 that summer performance on the Las Vegas Strip was weak, as rising airfares and gasoline prices reduced demand for rooms. The company controls about 40% of hotel rooms on the Las Vegas Strip. CEO Bill Hornbuckle said on Wednesday's earnings call that relief is needed on fuel, gasoline and airline pricing. Chief Financial Officer Jonathan Halkyard laid out the monthly slide: July room rates were roughly flat with a year earlier, performance worsened through the third quarter, and conditions eased in October. Convention business offset weaker leisure demand in some months, but overall, transportation costs squeezed the hotels' pricing power.
