Check-in Analyses Outbound Travel from Australia and New Zealand

Check-in Asia continues to research and analyse important travel and tourism trends that are shaping change across Asia Pacific. Following our Japan Travel and Tourism Report, published earlier this year, we have just completed a new report analysing the rapidly changing Outbound Tourism Markets of Australia and New Zealand.

Australia and New Zealand are high-profile tourism destinations, and changing societies with diversifying population bases, both in terms of age distribution and ethnic composition. The citizens of both countries are renowned as adventurous and seasoned international travellers, and their diversifying overseas travel preferences are being influenced by the growth of flight routes in and out of each country.

Changing Nations, Diversifying Travel Trends

Recent years have witnessed an unprecedented increase in flight connections for both countries, largely to accommodate the surging inbound flows of Asian travellers seeking to explore Australia and New Zealand, whose tourism authorities have proven to be both proactive and effective in engaging with aspirational Asian holidaymakers. Australians and New Zealanders are now taking up the travel opportunities these additional flights provide by exploring new overseas locations themselves .

The new Australia and New Zealand Outbound Tourism Report assesses the range of destinations that Australian and New Zealand travellers are visiting, the huge importance of each country to the other as an outbound travel destination, and the impact of niche tourism sectors on the diversification of international travel from Australia and New Zealand.

Cruising into the Future?

We also make a series of informed predictions about the potential future growth of outbound travel, ranging from the proliferation of online booking options to disurptive influences such as Airbnb and Uber that are seeking to drive new lifestyle patterns and trends, and from the voracious growth of cruise tourism for Australians and New Zealanders to the dark, threatening shadow of terrorism attacks targeting tourists.

Earlier in 2016, Check-in Asia produced our latest Japan Travel and Tourism report, which checks out one of the most intriguing tourism market economies in Asia. The detailed report was published by Mintel in February 2016. It follows previous tourism market reports Check-in Asia produced on Malaysia (August 2015) and Myanmar (August 2014).
