Why Asia’s Travel Market Matters More Than Ever
Asia Pacific is leading the global travel recovery, with rising demand across both leisure and business segments. Thailand is projecting 40 million international visitors in 2025, while markets like Shanghai, Cambodia, Macau, and India are seeing new investment and infrastructure growth.
With the region expected to account for 50 percent of global air passenger growth over the next 15 years, Skift Asia Forum offers a critical lens into Asia’s role in global tourism’s future.
