Dear Friends,

With the resumption of scheduled international flights, the National Tourist offices (NTOs) and DMC operators in India are banking on the burgeoning Indian outbound market, which is expected to gain an uptick post the pandemic. India presents an immense opportunity for destination marketers to leverage the country’s holiday seekers and the young population, which includes Gen Z and millennials who are more likely to travel internationally.

Air connectivity between India and other countries is also improving tremendously, with many international airlines resuming their services to India. Outbound travel in India has also been reasonable because of the growing low-cost airline market.

Looking at the positive developments, the TTJ April 2022 issue focuses on Outbound Travel. In this issue, we spoke with NTOs, DMCs, and other tourism stakeholders such as airlines and cruise operators to get their perspectives on international travel from India. Most are happy, as travel sentiments are beginning to brighten up.

Thus, we at TTJ wish you all much brighter days ahead!

Happy Reading!
