Travel Services, equal-weighted, based at 200 S&P 500, same base, same start trailing 12-month earnings per share rising falling

Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the industry line is an equal-weighted index of its 14 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the industry taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.

02 · sector relative strength, before individual stocks

Is Travel Services outperforming S&P 500?

Travel Services has outperformed S&P 500 by 8.8% over the last 52 weeks. Over 13 weeks the gap is a lead of 16%. 7 of 13 covered companies currently beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is selective. Lindblad Expeditions Holdings, Inc. is the strongest against the sector itself at +58.9%.

The central tension: the companies with the most scale are not necessarily the companies creating the most change.

Start with scale. Then earnings trajectory. Then business quality. Only after those three agree should price leadership carry much weight.

Bottom line

Travel Services has outperformed S&P 500 by 8.8% over 52 weeks and 16% over 13 weeks. 7 of 13 covered companies beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, while 5 of 13 beat the sector itself. Booking Holdings Inc. leads with revenue of $27,687 million, based on 11 of 14 comparable companies through Mar 2026.

4-Factor Sector Score

An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.

Growth & earnings · 35%Capital efficiency · 25%Valuation · 20%Relative strength · 20%
Lindblad Expeditions Holdings, Inc. has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 60.6% evidence confidence.
Carnival Corporation Ltd. looks inexpensive relative to peers or its own history, but its earnings trajectory has not yet earned the valuation signal.
How this score is built, and what the marks mean

Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step curve the sector itself is placed on — basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep — read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is widening or shrinking. It describes where the PRICE stands, not the earnings trajectory and not a recommendation, and it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.

Price and relative strength

Every company, the sector's own index and S&P 500 all start level on the left edge of the window, so only the distance between the lines counts — the highest line has risen the most since then, and the chart at the top of this page is drawn the same way. It opens on one year; the buttons beside it stretch that to three or five.

Pursuit Attractions and Hospitality, Inc.'s growth is 27.3% from a $467 million base, with 19 reported observations in the 20-quarter window.

Investor read: Booking Holdings Inc. is the scale benchmark; Pursuit Attractions and Hospitality, Inc. is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.

This conclusion weakens if: Booking Holdings Inc.'s growth falls below Pursuit Attractions and Hospitality, Inc.'s for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.

Revenue is compared on a common reported-currency basis. Growth is year-on-year, so seasonality does not masquerade as progress.

Return On Capital Employed

Booking Holdings Inc. has the highest ROCE among the 14 Travel Services companies compared here, at 13.6%. Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. is next at 4.3%. Expedia Group, Inc. has the highest ROCE change at +4.2 percentage points, so level and change sit with different companies. 14 of 14 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Booking Holdings Inc. leads ROCE at 13.6%, 9.3 percentage points above Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd.. Expedia Group, Inc. has the strongest latest improvement at +4.2 percentage points. Read the leader beside the density of its reported history: a sparse high return is a candidate; a repeated high return is evidence of durability.

LeaderBooking Holdings Inc. · 13.6%
Gap216.3% versus #2 · Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd.
Persistence8/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage14/14 companies · 254 observations

Investor read: Booking Holdings Inc. sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current roce change signal.

ROCE asks how much operating return the business earns on the capital employed. Direction matters, but a single exceptional year should not be mistaken for durability.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality

Airbnb, Inc. has the lowest PEG among the 14 Travel Services companies compared here, at 0.6×. Carnival Corporation Ltd. is next at 0.63×. Carnival Corporation Ltd. has the lowest P/E at 12.6×, so level and change sit with different companies. 5 of 14 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Airbnb, Inc. has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.6×, 4.8% below Carnival Corporation Ltd.. Only 5 of 14 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.

LeaderAirbnb, Inc. · 0.6×
Gap4.8% versus #2 · Carnival Corporation Ltd.
Persistence0/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage5/14 companies · 27 observations

Investor read: Treat valuation as permission to investigate, never as a standalone reason to buy.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current p/e signal.

PEG is shown only when earnings are positive and three-year EPS growth is between 5% and 60%. It is recomputed consistently as the trailing P/E divided by that growth rate — reported earnings, never an expected-earnings multiple. On Indian companies it is shown only where the two data feeds agreed. Where any of that fails the ratio is left out rather than printed: a P/E divided by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, is a number that looks precise and means nothing.

What can make this comparison misleading?

This Travel Services comparison names 5 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. 1 of the 14 companies reports on an older date than the sector's freshest reporters, so its rank is marked stale. A high growth rate can still be a low-base artefact.

Keep these limits visible

  • A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
  • A high ROCE can be temporary or flattered by a small capital base. Read it beside margin, cash conversion and reinvestment.
  • The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
  • An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.
  • 1 company has an older fundamental reporting date than the sector’s freshest reporters; its rank carries a stale marker.
11 · evidence and freshness

How was this comparison built?

This comparison is built from the reported filings of 14 Travel Services companies, normalized to a common $ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Jun 2026 and market data through 2026-08-04. A second data feed fills gaps only after identity and scale reconciliation, and missing observations are never interpolated.

Travel Services company comparison FAQs

These 22 answers restate the Travel Services comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 14 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Jun 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 2026-08-04. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.

Is the Travel Services sector outperforming S&P 500?

Travel Services has outperformed S&P 500 by 8.8% over 52 weeks and 16% over 13 weeks. 7 of 13 covered companies beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, while 5 of 13 beat the sector itself.

Airbnb, Inc. has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.6, among 5 of 14 companies whose earnings and growth are steady enough for the ratio to mean anything.

How much history does this Travel Services comparison include?

The page compares up to 20 reported quarters per company for fundamentals, returns and valuation, ending Jun 2026. Missing observations remain blank rather than being estimated.

How is the 4-Factor Sector Score calculated?

The four visible contributions add directly: growth and earnings up to 35 points, capital efficiency up to 25, valuation up to 20, and relative strength up to 20. Missing or stale evidence moves only the affected contribution toward neutral.

Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. has the highest operating margin at 26.1%, from 14 of 14 comparable companies. Pursuit Attractions and Hospitality, Inc. shows the biggest recent improvement, at +39.7 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking.

Booking Holdings Inc. earns the most, at $6,154 million of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 11 of 14 comparable companies.
