Outbound Chinese travel is set to continue to grow strongly in spite of the U.S.-China trade war, says group CEO of Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group, James Riley.
are currently the most popular among Chinese tourists , the destination mix is rapidly shifting to long-haul destinations, " authors of the report wrote at the time.
XIAOSHAN AIRPORT, HANGZHOU, ZHEJIANG PROVINCE, CHINA: An outbound tourist group is waiting for check-in in front of the counter of China Customs. Chinese nationals have become the largest number of foreign tourists visiting other countries in 2015 as the number of outbound visitors crossed 120 million, registering an 11 million increase from last year.However, the trade dispute may impact which countries these travelers choose to visit, Riley noted without elaborating.
"I think it's fair to say that as ever with these things, when they're covered extensively by global media, it makes a bigger impact in the living room of people's homes than it does directly in the streets," he said. But he also said he didn't want to underplay the possibility of the unrest affecting the city's tourist numbers. Calling it an "uncertain period," Riley said the protests could continue through the summer.
"There is a risk that if the disturbances continue for an extended period, it inevitably impacts people's decision to come to Hong Kong for conferences for gatherings or indeed for leisure," he said. "People will tend to say, I might delay it a little bit."
