According to KGI on July 19, there's a travel demand surge these couple of months, as graduating students go travelling with friends and families before they move to new schools in September.
KGI points out that the upcoming summer is the first long holiday season after China’s full-blown reopening, and tourism is expected to brace a pent-up demand from fresh graduates and their families. Overseas travelling is poised to further recover due to the pent-up demand, adds KGI.
