INDIA can be the new outbound travel powerhouse, replacing the Chinese market on which most Asia Pacific destinations rely.
The report added, “Moreover, while India’s intra-regional outbound travel market is relatively small, it had experienced more growth than any of the other major Asia Pacific outbound markets —both international and intraregional—over the five years before the pandemic. Now that the country has fully reopened, ForwardKeys expects its development as an interregional outbound market to accelerate.”
Meanwhile, Indians have a high interest in the Philippines, not just because of the country’s wealth of natural attractions and business opportunities, but also because of the large local Filipino-Indian population. Pioneering flag carrier Philippine Airlines flew between Mumbai and Manila from 2010 to 2013, but cancelled the route due to poor demand. Indian nationals are required to secure a visitor visa before traveling to the Philippines, unless they have an existing visa from the United States, Japan, Australia, Singapore, the United Kingdom, or Schengen countries. So far, PAL has no plans to add more international routes.
