Luo Shupei: Last year, the number of visitors to Hong Kong increased by 12%, and the number of flights returned to about 80% of the levels from 2018 to 2019

The Director of the Culture, Sports and Tourism Bureau, Luo Shupei, stated during the event that last year, Hong Kong received nearly 50 million visitors, an increase of 12% year-on-year, with the number of mainland visitors reaching 38 million, up 11% year-on-year; the number of non-mainland visitors was 12.1 million, with a year-on-year increase of 15%, describing the results as very good.

She indicated that after the official launch of the airport's third runway system, the number of flights last year had returned to 81% compared to 2018-19, and it is expected to increase to 86% this year. This not only means more visitors to Hong Kong but also provides local citizens with more flight options and easier access to purchasing tickets. She hopes that ticket prices can remain stable
