Compared with tourist attractions, travel agency and the airlines sectors, the recovery level of the hospitality market has shown better performance this year, according to the association. Hotel package orders for domestic destinations have soared more than 70 percent in 2023 from a year earlier, and the growth was 380 percent for overseas hotels, according to Shanghai-based online travel operator Trip.com.
