The lodging industry of Aspen and Snowmass Village was slightly off last year\u2019s record pace for occupancy in January, according to a report released Thursday.<\/p>\n

The town resorts combined produced 75.7% occupancy, according to Stay Aspen Snowmass, a central bookings agency owned and operated by Aspen Skiing Co. That was down 1.8% from January 2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cAspen was virtually flat to last January\u2019s record occupancy achieving 75.6%,\u201d the report said. \u201cSnowmass beat Aspen ever so slightly achieving 75.8%, which was down 3.8% for last year\u2019s record performance. This January was Aspen\u2019s second best and Snowmass\u2019 third best on record.\u201d<\/p>\n

The strong performance was due, in large part, to Gay Ski Week and X Games. Business from some international markets also was strong.<\/p>\n

\u201cAustralian travel was just shy of last year\u2019s numbers, which is not surprising considering currency headwinds and the tragic fires raging throughout the country.\u201d<\/p>\n

Looking ahead, February is pacing ahead of last year for reservations on the books as of Jan. 31, the report said. Aspen is pacing 4.2% ahead of last year while Snowmass is up 1.5%.<\/p>\n

For the winter as a whole, Aspen and Snowmass are currently on pace to match last year\u2019s record performance, the report said. However, that could change. The mid-point of the Aspen Snowmass ski season was passed last week.<\/p>\n
