According to Amadeus, although Japan was the only APAC country to appear in the top ten origin countries for search demand, representing only 2.4% of searches, the APAC region proves to be one of the fastest growing travel regions, with some of the most committed travelers. Within APAC, Japan is the second-largest booking market (6.6%) to Paris during Dion’s fall residency, with Australia (5.1%), South Korea (4.5%), and India (2.19%) all ranking in the top ten international travel origin countries. Taken together, these four countries in the APAC region represent 18.4% of travelers headed to Paris during Dion’s tour dates. Thailand stands out as the fastest-growing international booking market by far, with an astounding 200% growth in bookings compared to the same time last year. Bookings from Japan and India experienced a 40% and 13% growth respectively.
