The increase in average spending per guest was due to higher spending on admissions and merchandise.

Hotels and Disney Village ^® revenues increased 1% to € 129.8 million from € 128.2 million in the prior-year period reflecting higher Disney Village activity, partly offset by a 2% decrease in average spending per room.

Hotel occupancy rate remained stable with more guests visiting from the United Kingdom offset by fewer guests visiting from Spain.

Other revenues increased by € 1.7 million to € 11.9 million, from € 10.2 million in the prior-year period, mainly due to higher travel services and other services sold to guests as well as higher sponsorship revenues.
