"However, another reason is that domestic tourism has won in prestige and also in quality," Arlt told CNBC Travel. Now, Chinese travelers may be looking to venture beyond the region. "This creates business need for increased flights but has also seen increased Chinese media coverage and general interest in the region which will have knock-on effects for more general travel interest." 3 on a list of expenditures where Chinese travelers said they would increase spending this year — after dining out, and fitness and wellness.

Trade promotion office Austrade said Tourism Australia's managing director visited China in March to meet strategic partners such as airlines and the body would "continue to work closely with its key distribution partners in the market to realise tourism opportunities between Australia and China". China was Australia's biggest source of foreign students until 2019, but students of other nationalities have filled its foreign student ranks since Australia reopened its border in 2021. "When Chinese tourists return en masse, I'm worried that the supply will not catch up with demand," he said.

Thailand, for instance, offers visas-on-arrival to fully vaccinated Chinese tourists who have travel insurance.
