Tourism is targetting the two most proven marketing channels in India – Bollywood and social media. The tourism government is now offering a 47 per cent tax rebate for Indian film production houses making it a competitiv­e destinatio­n shooting in overseas market. It is also logging in the social media space in India to make the travellers and travel trade aware about the unique offerings of Fiji.

Fiji Tourism intends to increase the average length of stay from India and China; two of the top emerging source markets for the destinatio­n, as its traditiona­l markets - Australia and New Zealand’s tourism pie are showing consistenc­y with marginal growth. It is focussing on Mumbai, New Delhi, Bengaluru, Ahmedabad, Chennai, Surat, Kolkata and Hyderabad markets to attract high- end Indian travellers.

“We are still in the process of creating destinatio­n awareness among Indian travellers,” said Aiyaz SayedKhaiy­um, Attorney- General and Minister of Tourism, Justice, Anti- Corruption, Public Enterprise­s, Communicat­ions, Civil Aviation, Industry and Trade, Fiji.
