Strong demand for overseas trips during Golden Week
Experts: South Korea, Thailand are top choices for mainland tourists
Outbound tourism in the upcoming Golden Week - the first week of October - is expected to hit a new high in terms of the number of travelers this year, boosted by the easier visa procedures and increased flight routes to popular destinations, top industry experts said on Monday.
Destinations in Asia continue to dominate online searches by mainland tourists with Taipei and Seoul being the top choices, according to Hotels.com, a leading provider of hotel accommodations. The company has based its findings on data from its Chinese website and on search volumes for outbound destination hotels between Oct 1 and 7.
