Southeast Asia's tourism industry begins uneven recovery

Two years after tourism in Southeast Asia ground to a halt, travellers are getting back on planes as entry and COVID-19 quarantine rules are lifted in the region, but a full recovery will be slow and some long-time hotspots are falling out of favour.

The ForwardKeys data showed Singapore and Philippines bookings were at 72per cent and 65per cent of 2019 levels, respectively, while Thailand was at just 24per cent. Asia, though, is lagging a recovery in other regions including Europe, which eased restrictions months ago. Thailand will take until 2026 to make a full recovery, the governor of its central bank said on Monday. In 2019, tourism accounted about 12per cent of the country's gross domestic product .

Japan, which remains shut to tourists itself, has seen only small numbers of travellers to Southeast Asia, while Russia's invasion of Ukraine has kept away the typically large number of Russian tourists in the region.
