The Biden administration's infrastructure spending blitz has put more construction laborers on the road for work this year, fueling a race by extended-stay hotel operators to win their business. Data from Navan, a corporate travel management company, shows construction industry extended-stay lodging bookings are up 120% in the two years through the end of November. “If you look at the infrastructure bill and reshoring of American jobs, there's a huge amount of new business coming in - 50 million to 100 million room nights over the next decade that really are going to feed the extended-stay profile,” Scott Oaksmith, chief financial officer of Choice Hotels, said during a recent third-quarter earnings call.
