Japan’s tourism sector continues to flourish going into the summer

The number of foreign visitors for business and leisure was seen at 3.04 million last month. That is little changed from April and just down slightly from the all-time record in March. Compared to May 2019 i.e. the same month before the pandemic, arrivals into Japan were 9.6% higher this year. If anything, the weaker yen is definitely a contributive factor here; not to mention “revenge travelling”.
