15 August 2025
New Zealand residents made a record 730,200 trips to Asia in the June 2025 year, according to data released by Stats NZ today.
“Short-term trips to Asia by New Zealand residents were up 20 percent in the June 2025 year, compared with the year before,” international travel statistics spokesperson Bryan Downes said.
“This increase was mainly driven by more trips to Indonesia, China, Japan, and India.”
The increase in trips to Asia coincided with a 6 percent increase in direct flights to the region in the June 2025 year, compared with the June 2024 year.
