Japanese media: China's Spring Festival travel destination is not Japan
Japan's Kyodo News reported on February 2: The Chinese Spring Festival travel season began on February 2, and it is predicted that within 40 days until March 13, about 9.5 billion people will be on the move, an increase of about 500 million from last year's 9 billion, setting a new historical record.
With the deterioration of bilateral relations, Japan, which has been a popular overseas travel destination during the Spring Festival in recent years, has fallen out of the top ten in major travel agency rankings.
Asahina Hayana's statement at the National Diet that Taiwan's emergency situation may constitute a crisis of survival was strongly refuted.
According to Chinese media reports, Southeast Asian countries such as Thailand and Singapore are increasingly becoming popular overseas travel destinations. Due to large-scale cancellations of flights to Japan and changes in tourist destinations, the number of visitors from China to Japan is expected to drop significantly this year during the Spring Festival.
Of the approximately 9.5 billion people, 80% will be traveling. Railways are expected to carry about 540 million people, while air travel is expected to reach about 95 million people. This year's Spring Festival holiday is from February 15 to 23.
