Davos 2023: Demand for prostitutes skyrockets during annual World Economic Forum | Daily Mail Online

She told Bild she regularly sees an American who visits Switzerland multiple times a year and is among the 2,700 conference attendees.

Liana charges around ¬700 ($760) for an hour and ¬2,300 ($2,500) for the whole night, plus travel expenses.

The manager of one escort service in Aargau, 100 miles away from the summit, says she has already received 11 bookings and 25 inquiries – and expects many more to follow this week.

She told 20 Minuten: ‘Some also book escorts for themselves and their employees to party in the hotel suite.’

Salome Balthus, a sex worker and writer, posted on Twitter: ‘Date in Switzerland during #WWF means looking at the gun muzzles of security guards in the hotel corridor at 2 a.m. – and then sharing the giveaway chocolates from the restaurant with them and gossiping about the rich… #Davos #WEF.’

I’m not speaking from experience, of course, but I’m told about $2,500 for the whole night is not bad. It’s about the same as one would expect in Las Vegas. It suggests a pretty efficient, competitive market for these services, from which you would expect the Davosistas to learn something. But then they know very well that markets are efficient. They just don’t want that sort of competition for themselves.
