#First Opinion
“The Middle East situation is certainly impacting tourism, with many travellers avoiding routes over the Gulf. However, travel to Europe continues, and destinations like Japan are seeing strong growth. Southeast Asia—Vietnam, Cambodia, Bali, Thailand, and Singapore—remains robust, with China also picking up. I am confident that once stability returns, markets like Dubai will rebound quickly. While recent disruptions have affected summer travel, both outbound and inbound segments are expected to recover steadily.”
