As the new year approaches, experts note that the Chinese economy remains on an accelerated recovery path. China's tourism sector is playing a key role in this recovery. In addition, new growth drivers are continually emerging that continue to fuel momentum through 2024.

A media report, compiling data from leading travel platforms, indicates a broad-based recovery of domestic and cross-border tourism in China.

As of December 15, total travel bookings for the New Year vacation had more than tripled compared to the previous year. In addition, the report recorded a remarkable increase in hotel bookings by more than five times. Airline ticket bookings also saw a remarkable year-on-year growth of 205%, according to data provided Monday by online travel agency Trip.com.
