Travelers from the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region set their sights predominantly on renowned summer destinations across Europe and the United States for their vacations between June and August. The preference list is adorned with popular destinations, with Athens capturing attention as it sees the most significant surge in vacation duration—an impressive leap of 11 days from the previous year.
The concept of ‘Everywhere’ also secures a notable position, underscoring a universal eagerness among wanderers to explore new horizons without specific destinations in mind.
Tokyo stands out as the sole city where vacations typically span less than ten days. However, when APAC travelers commit to long-haul journeys, they ensure it’s worth their while by spending approximately two weeks soaking in the experience.
In contrast to New York, where the average vacation duration has decreased by about a week, Los Angeles witnesses an increase, with stays extending to nearly two weeks.
When it comes to trending travel spots among Asia–Pacific tourists in 2024, local destinations within the region are capturing hearts, with New Delhi and Shanghai leading the way in terms of search growth compared to the previous year.
Venturing beyond the v boundaries, Jeddah, Dubrovnik, and Victoria emerge as hotspots, each offering an appealing average stay ranging from 11 to 14 days.
Pangkalan Bun, nestled in Borneo, Indonesia, distinguishes itself as the singular trending destination witnessing an uptick in average stay duration, from four to seven days.
However, not all places are experiencing a surge in interest. Two Chinese cities, Shanghai and Chengdu, face a downturn in visit duration, with reductions spanning seven to eight days.
Overall, the trend indicates a shift towards shorter vacations, reflecting a broader pattern observed not only among APAC tourists but globally, as explorers seek brief yet enriching travel experiences.
