Return of the Chinese Traveller? Preparing for a Post Zero-Covid World

Pre-pandemic, more than 150 million Chinese tourists travelled abroad every year. As three years of Zero-Covid restrictions finally lift, will Chinese outbound travel ever recover to its 2019 levels, how have the expectations of China’s travelling shoppers changed, and what can brands do now to prepare for their return?

Drawing on TONG’s rich on-the-ground insights and experience, this webinar will explore answers to these questions and more, providing the latest updates on consumer sentiment and trends that will shape outbound tourism and travel retail through 2023 and beyond. Join us for the TONG Take on the situation as it unfolds, with plenty of time for any burning questions.

This session is suitable for organisations related to destination marketing, hospitality and travel retail. Spaces are limited and so TONG reserves the right to prioritise brands over other service providers.

- The facts and motivations behind changes to China’s Zero-Covid Policy
- The size of the prize - what do the numbers tell us?
- The Chinese tourist mindset - how have the priorities of China’s outbound tourist changed since 2019?
