Bangkok Post – Chinese tourists avoid far-flung trips over Lunar holiday
Thailand among countries luring visitors from China with visa-free entry, lower costs

China’s straitened economic circumstances are being reflected in Lunar New Year travel plans, with many choosing cheaper domestic trips or nearby destinations in Asia.

Around 2.2 million to 2.6 million people are forecast to travel globally during the eight-day holiday that starts the eve of Jan 28, according to digital marketing and research firm China Trading Desk. While that’s up as much as 30% from last year’s low base, it’s still below pre-pandemic levels when overseas travel was at a peak at 6.3 million.

The holiday snapshots reflect a home-bias shift among Chinese tourists, who for years were the globe’s biggest spenders. Now, their travel cutbacks have businesses from airlines to retailers and hotels recalibrating.

“Chinese are being more selective about their travel,” Subramania Bhatt, chief executive officer of China Trading Desk, said. “They’re looking for value and experiences rather than just spending money. We’re not going to see the heyday of Chinese coming in, going into big luxury shops and buying loads of handbags.”

Holidaymakers who are going abroad are increasingly choosing nearby countries like Japan and South Korea whose weakened currencies extend the buying power of the yuan. Southeast Asian nations such as Malaysia and Thailand are meanwhile luring visitors with visa-free entry and lower costs. More expensive long-haul destinations as the United States and Europe aren’t at the top of lists this year.

Chen Xing, a finance worker at a state-owned asset management firm in Guangzhou, routinely used to fly to Europe for two weeks’ skiing during Lunar New Year before the pandemic. With consistent pay raises and bonuses, she did not flinch at spending around US$10,000 (338,000 baht) a trip. But over the past two years, her salary has flat-lined while her bonuses have been slashed in half.

This year, she waited for a last-minute deal and booked a trip to Osaka. She’s budgeted just $2,000 and chose a hotel that’s only 300 yuan (1,400 baht) a night, a far cry from the deluxe stays she treated herself to in the past.

“It’s more like a trip to comfort myself,” she said. “It’s a reflection of how I’m struggling in this difficult time. You have to shrink your budget for everything but still need to spend on some fun to make up for the pressure of work and life.”

According to online travel platform Fliggy, countries that are within a four-hour flight from major Chinese cities, like Japan, are favoured destinations as people seek more economical options.

Furthermore, nearly three out of four travellers are booking trips less than a month in advance as people hold out for last-minute offers, Bhatt said.

Fliggy data show that air fares from Shanghai to South Korea’s popular Jeju island were selling for as low as 284 yuan one-way this month. Average air ticket prices from China to Hong Kong, and hotels in the financial hub, have dropped as much as 20% compared to last year’s Spring Festival period, Bhatt said.

During the extended 40-day Spring Festival travel period that began Jan 14, some 90 million passenger trips are forecast to be made on both domestic and international routes, according to the Civil Aviation Administration of China. The almost 8% growth is considerably lower than the 51% spike seen in 2024, the first year after China reopened following the coronavirus 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic.

Passenger travel estimates for the holiday are mostly in line with capacity growth for the Chinese market, Bloomberg Intelligence senior aviation analyst Tim Bacchus said.

“The international market remains in recovery mode with some weakness in both outbound and inbound demand,” Bacchus said. “Domestic, on the other hand, appears normalised now with the growth rate falling to be consistent with historical gross domestic product-growth multiples.”

The Lunar New Year holiday is typically a busy time for Chinese tourists, with many flocking to popular destinations around the world. However, this year has seen a shift in travel patterns, with many Chinese tourists opting to stay closer to home.

According to the Bangkok Post, Chinese tourists are avoiding far-flung trips this Lunar holiday, opting instead to travel domestically or to nearby countries. This change in behavior is largely due to ongoing concerns about the COVID-19 pandemic and the uncertainty surrounding international travel restrictions.

Thailand, a popular destination for Chinese tourists, has seen a significant decrease in visitors this year compared to previous Lunar holidays. Many tour operators and hotel owners in Bangkok have reported a drop in bookings from Chinese tourists, with some attributing this to the current travel restrictions and health concerns.

While the decrease in Chinese tourist arrivals may have a negative impact on Thailand’s tourism industry, it also presents an opportunity for the country to focus on promoting domestic tourism and attracting travelers from other markets.

As the Lunar New Year holiday approaches, it will be interesting to see how the travel patterns of Chinese tourists continue to evolve and how destinations like Bangkok adapt to these changing trends.

Netflix’s teen drama trips over itself
It took XO, Kitty, the Netflix teen drama spun off from the To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before movie trilogy, more than half of its first season to really find its footing. With clunky dialogue and on-the-nose voiceover narration by the titular Kitty (Anna Cathcart), exposition was clearly not the show’s strong suit.

If you need a refresher, we last left Kitty at the end of her first semester at Korean Independent School of Seoul (KISS). She got kicked out and then dumped her longtime boyfriend Dae (Minyeong Choi) because of her feelings for Yuri (Gia Kim), only to have Dae’s best friend Min Ho (Sang Heon Lee) confess his feelings for her on the plane home. There was a lot of drama! The stage had been set for season two. And yet the show’s sophomore outing suffers from the same struggles that plagued its first batch.

“I never imagined Yuri would call her mom and get me back in, but now that I have a second chance, I’m not gonna mess it up,” Kitty narrates in the first 30 seconds of this new season. Much of the show is like this, with the voiceover or dialogue explicitly stating motives and conflicts. It’s like watching the results of the “Netflix mandate” to have characters announce what they’re doing for optimum background watching play out in real time.

Right off the bat, season two resets the clock on a lot of the developments that wrapped up back in 2023. Kitty rejected Min Ho on the plane, so they’re back to “hating” each other. Yuri and her girlfriend Juliana (Regan Aliyah) are together, so Kitty can’t ethically share her feelings. Kitty and Dae are tentatively trying to be friends. And gay BFF Q (Anthony Keyvan) continues to be the voice of reason for everyone.
XO, Kitty goes back to school with premiere date and first look

Anna Cathcart talks XO, Kitty and raps Ludacris’ verse from “Baby”
But the show also introduces several new characters: Praveena (Sasha Bhasin), another possible love interest for Kitty’s bisexual exploration; Stella (Audrey Huynh), a new roommate who sets her sights on Min Ho; Jin (Joshua Lee), one more lackluster romantic partner for Q, who deserves better; and Eunice (Ryu Han-bi), who pairs up with Dae.

With increased screen time for Juliana, that basically makes five new characters, which XO, Kitty is not prepared to juggle along with its original five. Instead of diving into the arcs it already worked to set up, the show wastes time on these fresh, often pointless characters. And because there’s not enough time for everyone, some characters drop off for a few episodes only to pop up randomly later, and many plotlines don’t go anywhere. Unsurprisingly, season two is its strongest when the scenes stick to the original cast, with Kitty’s dynamics with Min Ho and Yuri (ones built upon from last season) being the most interesting. Min Ho’s story in particular is delicately developed, but Yuri’s clearly gets the short shrift in the back half of this season.

XO, Kitty is still a beautiful love letter to Korea, as language, culture, food, and music are all incorporated with care. Kitty’s quest to learn more about her deceased mother and Korean family continues with more moving results. And if you came to the show because of To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before, a visit from Peter Kavinsky—the “Covey” nickname originator, which of course gets commented on—might spark some feelings of fondness (although Noah Centineo really cannot pass for 22 anymore).

Season two also hits all the comfortable teen-show notes, with some K-drama DNA sprinkled in: a school dance, a ski weekend where everyone’s secrets come to light, a talent show with high stakes, love triangles galore, a plot for revenge, and so on. The ingredients are there, but the writing is not. And when the finale sets up a potentially more interesting future, it’s hard not to roll your eyes. XO, Kitty asked its audience to fall for that one before.

XO, Kitty season two premieres January 16 on Netflix
Netflix’s latest teen drama series has been garnering mixed reviews from viewers and critics alike. While some have praised the show for its realistic portrayal of teenage life and relationships, others have criticized it for its lackluster writing and formulaic plot.

The series follows a group of high school students as they navigate the ups and downs of adolescence, dealing with issues such as friendship, love, and identity. While the show’s diverse cast and representation of LGBTQ+ characters have been applauded, many viewers have found the storylines to be cliched and predictable.

One major point of contention has been the show’s handling of sensitive topics such as mental health and substance abuse. Critics have accused the series of glamorizing these issues and failing to provide a meaningful exploration of their real-life consequences.

Despite these criticisms, the show has managed to attract a dedicated fan base, with many viewers praising the performances of the young cast and the show’s stylish aesthetic. However, it seems that Netflix’s teen drama may have stumbled in trying to balance entertainment with meaningful storytelling.

As the series continues to unfold, it remains to be seen whether it will be able to overcome its shortcomings and deliver a more compelling narrative. In the meantime, viewers will have to decide for themselves whether this teen drama is worth a watch or if it’s better to switch to another show on the streaming platform.

The top four cruise destinations for 2025 – including trips to Africa | Cruise | Travel
An easy, stress-free way to see multiple destinations without having to repack suitcases dozens of times, cruise holidays are becoming a way of holiday life for many.

According to industry body Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA), 2.3 million people went on a cruise in 2023 – up from 1.7 million the previous year – and increasing numbers of people are likely to set sail in the future.

The Mediterranean and Caribbean are obvious destinations, but as investment in infrastructure continues, ports of call are emerging all over the world. Overwhelmed by the options? These are some of the newest voyages of discovery.

Ornate architecture, ancient cultures and sense-arousing souks are some of the highlights attracting an increasing number of travellers to explore the Middle East. As part of a drive to embrace Western tourism, countries such as the UAE and Saudi Arabia have invested in new cruise terminals, ports and private islands – attracting more cruise companies to introduce itineraries. Saudi Arabia, for example, aims to attract 1.3 million cruise travellers by 2035.

Although there are ongoing issues in the Suez Canal, elsewhere, there is greater political stability.

From winter 2025, Celestyal’s newest ship, Celestyal Discovery, will operate short trips to Abu Dhabi, Doha and Sir Bani Yas Island between November and March, with prices starting from £249pp. Sister ship Celestyal Journey already operates a seven-night Desert Days voyage through the Arabian Gulf from £429pp. Lee Haslett, chief commercial officer at Celestyal, says: “We are now confident in becoming the go-to cruise specialists of the Arabian Gulf.”

The northern Nordics

Hotter summers in the Mediterranean have sparked a trend for ‘coolcationing’ in the more comfortable climes of Finland, Sweden and Norway. While the Norwegian fjords have been popular for some time, there’s growing interest in summer midnight sun cruises to Norwegian town Honningsvåg, where guests can then travel by bus to the North Cape – the northernmost point in Europe.

Ships also present an affordable option for a multi-hop city break to Helsinki, Stockholm and Tallinn, with all food and board included in one price. Best Served Scandinavia has a five-day Belles of the Baltic trip from £925pp (with flights).

Winter on the water is possible too. Aurora displays promise to be stronger and more frequent as we approach the solar maximum – a key point of activity in the sun’s 11-year solar cycle – and one of the best ways to observe the phenomenon is from a ship.

Ambassador Cruise Line offers a 17-night sailing from £1,099pp, departing London Tilbury on March 20, venturing along Norway’s coastline beyond the Arctic Circle. Hurtigruten’s 12-day Astronomy Voyages (from £2,648pp) feature expert-led stargazing sessions and aurora workshops. If the aurora borealis is not visible from the ship, passengers will receive a complimentary six-day southbound or seven-day northbound Coastal Express voyage to compensate.

Africa

Famous for its wild interior of dense rainforest and vast open grasslands, Africa’s coastlines are now a focus of attention. Several companies are launching voyages along the eastern and lesser know western shores, making it possible to visit previously hard-to-reach locations in comfort.

“As ports develop and interest in sustainable tourism grows, this untapped market could become a global favourite,” says Emma Sanger-Horwell, head of cruise at Kenwood Travel.

Being part of the A&K Travel Group, with its deep roots in Africa, Crystal has crafted several immersive experiences on two new voyages. A 14-night trip from Cape Town, visiting Namibia, Angola, São Tomé and Benin costs from £5,200pp. On the other side of the continent, a 13-night trip along South Africa’s Garden Route to Durban and onward to Mozambique and Zanzibar costs from £6,300pp.

Japan

The Land of the Rising Sun continues to soar in popularity. In a world of ancient traditions, arresting scenery, and brain-bending modern technology, it’s easy to forget that the destination is, in fact, a vast archipelago with more than 14,000 islands to explore by boat.

One of the best ways to experience sakura – when the famous cherry blossoms bloom – is by boat, visiting multiple destinations to maximise the short-lived displays flourishing at different stages. Abercrombie & Kent has a blow-the-budget 14-day Wonders of Japan cruise (from £20,240pp) spanning four major islands, timed to coincide with the Sakura season.

Audley, meanwhile, combines land and sea stay in a 24-day trip, including a 14-night Azamara cruise visiting 10 ports of call (from £12,100pp).

As we look ahead to 2025, the world of cruising is set to offer a plethora of exciting destinations for travelers to explore. From exotic adventures in Africa to serene escapes in the Caribbean, there is something for everyone to enjoy. Here are the top four cruise destinations for 2025, including trips to Africa:

1. The Caribbean: With its crystal-clear waters, white sandy beaches, and vibrant culture, the Caribbean remains a top choice for cruise-goers. From the bustling streets of Havana to the tranquil shores of St. Lucia, there is no shortage of breathtaking destinations to visit in this tropical paradise.

2. Alaska: For those looking to explore the great outdoors, Alaska is the perfect destination. From whale-watching in Juneau to hiking in Denali National Park, this rugged and remote landscape offers a truly unique cruising experience.

3. The Mediterranean: With its rich history, stunning architecture, and delicious cuisine, the Mediterranean continues to be a popular choice for travelers seeking a cultural adventure. From the ancient ruins of Rome to the picturesque villages of Santorini, there is no shortage of beauty to discover in this region.

4. Africa: For the adventurous traveler, a cruise to Africa offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to explore some of the world’s most diverse and wildlife-rich destinations. From the majestic Victoria Falls to the stunning beaches of the Seychelles, Africa is a continent like no other.

Whether you’re looking to relax on a sun-drenched beach or embark on a thrilling safari adventure, there is a cruise destination for everyone in 2025. Start planning your next unforgettable journey today!
