Talk about wanderlust! 🌟 China’s 2024 May Day holiday travel exploded into a frenzy, with 1.36 billion cross-regional trips logged from May 1 to 5—that’s an average of over 270 million trips daily, according to the Ministry of Transport. 🚄💨
The travel bug bit harder domestically, with per capita bookings and spending rising by double digits. But the real flex? Outbound travel tripled compared to past years, as Chinese jetsetters flocked everywhere from Bangkok’s street markets 🍜 to Tokyo’s cherry blossom hotspots 🌸. Talk about a global reset!
Experts say this surge signals pent-up demand post-pandemic and highlights China’s economic momentum. Whether it’s backpackers or luxury seekers, the world’s tourism scene is getting a major boost. 🌐✨
