The primary engine behind the outperformance was a broad-based acceleration in global travel demand, with worldwide RevPAR rising 4.2% in constant dollars and adjusted diluted EPS climbing 17% year over year, supported by a 13% jump in franchise and base management fees to $1.21 billion. Strength was notably wide across regions, with Asia Pacific leading international markets at over 7% RevPAR growth, even as Middle East conflict weighed on March results. The company's development pipeline reached nearly 618,000 rooms, up over 5% year over year, reflecting continued network expansion. Looking ahead, Marriott guided full-year adjusted diluted EPS of $11.38 to $11.63 and worldwide RevPAR growth of 2% to 3%, a backdrop broadly consistent with the positive lodging demand trends seen across the broader U.S. Hotel industry.
