Chinese Labor Day (May Day) Golden Week:

With the effective control of the epidemic in the Mainland, the people have regained their confidence in travel. The Chinese government has maintained an attitude of opening travel restrictions to encourage and promote the development of the tourism industry. The upcoming Chinese Labor Day (May Day) Golden Week is expected to break out, bringing business opportunities to different regions of China.

The number of air tickets booked on May 1st this year has increased by more than 25 times compared with last year. Statistics show that the search volume of flights has increased significantly, with Sanya increasing by 1000%, Chongqing by 779%, Chengdu by 665%, and Hong Kong and Macau by 550%.

Many popular places have sold out economy class flight tickets from May 1 to 5. The number of air ticket orders also exceeded that of 2019, an increase of more than 20%.

Macau is listed as a safe outbound tourist destination. Passengers only need to have a valid nucleic acid report and valid visa within seven days to go there, and there is no need to be quarantine for return trips.

Average flight prices in Macau increased by 50% compared to April, and hotel prices also increased by 30%. Although the price has increased, it has not hindered the enthusiasm of mainland tourists to travel abroad. Some Macau financial experts predict that with the relaxation of travel restrictions and preparations for the upcoming May 1st Golden Week, it is estimated that gross gaming revenue this month will be about 9 billion patacas, and there is a better chance of reaching 10 billion patacas next month.
