A new survey shows that under the circumstances of unknown economic prospects, more and more Chinese tourists are planning to postpone travel abroad.

According to a report from Bloomberg News on Tuesday (September 26), an survey by an international management consulting company Oliver Wyman found that 54%of the respondents said that they planned to travel in 2023 in 2023, 62%below the June investigation.These Chinese interviewees are travelers who often go abroad before the epidemic.

About 22%of the respondents said that they did not intend to go overseas in the next three years, and the proportion was only 6%in June.

The interviewed objects must meet the lowest threshold of the family's monthly income of 30,000 yuan (about S $ 5615). It is the representative of the middle class in China and the key driving force for boosting the recovery of consumption after the epidemic.Although the expenditure of experiential services such as travel and food this year has remained tough, people question whether this can continue.

IMKE WOUTERS, who is responsible for the survey, said that although Chinese tourists are returning, the border is longer than expected.

The survey also showed that 32%of the respondents said that the current economic downturn and political situation have reduced their willingness to travel abroad. Only 19%of the respondents said that they were more inclined to travel abroad.
