    Positivity in tourism - heading into summer

    Positivity in tourism - heading into summer


    Latest Stats NZ figures record more than 260-thousand overseas visitors in October - a lift of 22-thousand on the same month last year.

    That's an encouraging 93-percent of pre-Covid levels - in 2019.

    Tourism Industry Aotearoa CEO, Rebecca Ingram, says operators are full of optimism - and hoping to keep up the momentum.

    She says a really good summer season's ahead - with lots of forward bookings.
