[IT전문 미디어 블로그=딜라이트닷넷] The most preferred travel destinations for Koreans as their Nth overseas travel destination were Osaka, Fukuoka, and Tokyo, in that order. In addition, more travelers are leaving for new cities instead of familiar Japanese destinations.

According to Triple Data, a hyper-personalized travel platform operated by Interpark Triple (CEO Choi Hwi-young) on ​​the 19th, the overseas travel destination visited more than twice by the most triple users was Osaka.

Among all N-tier travelers, 18.6% visited Osaka more than twice. Osaka was followed by Fukuoka (16.6%), Tokyo (15.2%), Bangkok (7.9%), and Da Nang (6.3%). Three major Japanese cities, including Osaka, Fukuoka, and Tokyo, accounted for 50.4% of all N-tier travel destinations.

The most visited tourist destination by triple users during the period was Universal Studios in Osaka, the most visited restaurant was Ichiran Headquarters in Fukuoka, and the bakery was Pan Maison in Tokyo.

This data is a tally of users who created travel itineraries on Triple and actually visited the area from April 2017 to September 2017.

Another travel and leisure platform, Yeogi Eottae, analyzed year-end overseas accommodation reservation data and found that the number of Japanese cities visited by Koreans has nearly doubled compared to last year.

When Yeogi Eottae looked at Japanese accommodation reservation data from the 23rd to the 31st of next month, there were about 71 areas where travelers checked in during that period. Compared to 44 during the same period last year, the number of travel options to Japan has expanded by about 1.6 times.

Excluding Fukuoka, Osaka, Tokyo, and Sapporo, which have strong demand, there were many newly emerging cities when looking at the top 10 popular travel destinations. Representative cities that significantly increased in popularity compared to the end of last year were Kumamoto and Takamatsu.

Two cities had no demand at the end of last year, but were newly added to the popular city rankings this year. Matsuyama, which was in demand last year, saw more travelers visit this year and the number of reservations increased about four-fold.

The company’s analysis is that the overall increase in price competitiveness for travel to Japan is behind the diversification of travel destinations. Recently, a reasonable travel environment is being created as the travel industry expands its product line-up focusing on small cities and simultaneously carries out various promotions.

He said, “Basically, these places are attractive as travel destinations due to their abundance of tourist resources, but more than anything, they seem to have had a big impact as direct flights became active after the endemic (infectious diseases became endemic) and accessibility increased.”
