“Globally we see the power of the New York brand, with its appeal to people across the world, young and old. However, the rise of Abu Dhabi and the weakness of Sydney among younger people, remind us that no city can afford to rest on its laurels,” Adarkar added. This year witnessed Abu Dhabi leapfrogging London and Paris into second position, with Tokyo, Sydney and Zurich on the same score in equal fifth, the survey said.
