March 1–7, 2024 travel archive, via the Telluride Tourism Board. This update was published ahead of spring-break travel and the final weeks of the 2023–2024 ski season. The occupancy and air figures were a snapshot of reported pace at that time, not final outcomes or current travel conditions.
The report described the first two weeks of March as the busiest spring-break period, with total occupancy at 64% and pacing 7% behind 2023. It listed Saturday peaks of 70% on March 2 and 72% on March 9, as shown in the original daily graphic. ADR was reported 4% higher year over year at $947.
The graphic compares daily occupancy forecasts for March 1–14 in 2024 and 2023. A daily peak is not the occupancy rate for the entire week or month.
For the remaining five weeks of the ski season, the narrative reported 50% total occupancy, flat year over year, and ADR 5% lower at $869. It described a slower start to March and stronger late-season pace around an earlier Easter and the planned first-week-of-April resort closing. That was the source’s interpretation at the time, not a measurement of the holiday’s isolated effect or today’s operating calendar.
The weekly graphic shows these rounded 2024 versus 2023 occupancy rates: March 3–9, 64% versus 68%; March 10–16, 61% versus 73%; March 17–23, 49% versus 55%; March 24–30, 51% versus 39%; and March 31–April 7, 27% versus 16%. Its week windows differ from the first-two-weeks summary, so those values should not be substituted for one another.
The preliminary summer narrative reported total occupancy 5% ahead of 2023, paid occupancy 6% behind and ADR 7% lower. Total and paid occupancy moving in different directions is not a contradiction by itself; they describe different categories. The article does not provide the underlying records needed to reconcile them.
The air update estimated winter bookings 5–6% below the prior year, with late February softer, March stronger but still down, and the early-Easter end-of-season period ahead. It compared the pattern with pre-pandemic travel but supplied no independent reconstruction of that comparison.
For summer 2024 it announced an earlier start to daily Houston and Chicago routes and Southwest service from Dallas Love Field along with Denver. The reproduced prose did not identify each route’s airport endpoint or operating dates sufficiently for booking; it should not be read as saying every flight served Telluride’s TEX airport. Confirm airports, carriers and schedules directly for any present trip.
The winter destination-passenger graphic compares the 2019–2020, 2021–2022, 2022–2023 and 2023–2024 seasons. It does not print exact values for every plotted point or a complete methodology. No precise passenger totals are inferred here from the curves.
Occupancy pace describes reservations or reported usage at the time of the update, not a final result. Total occupancy and paid occupancy are different measures. Average daily rate (ADR) and revenue per available room (RevPAR) describe lodging performance, not home prices or guaranteed rental income. The reproduced material does not supply the full property sample, weighting or reporting methodology.
Year-over-year percentage changes are not the same as percentage-point differences between occupancy rates. Rounded graphic labels may not reproduce a narrative change calculated from unrounded source data. For current travel, consult the Telluride Tourism Board, the accommodation and the carrier. For a property decision, obtain property-specific income, expense and rental-permission evidence separately.
