Chinese Tourists Ramp Up European Summer Trips, as Americans Cut Back

Bloomberg10-06-2025
Newly cost-sensitive Americans may be hitting the breaks on their big European vacations this summer, but another group is taking up the slack: Chinese travelers. According to a survey about long-haul trips the European Travel Commission (ETC) is publishing on Jun. 10, which was previewed exclusively with Bloomberg, 72% of Chinese respondents say they plan to travel to Europe this summer—up 10% from 2024. The figures reflect the highest demand from Chinese travelers since the pandemic.
That should elicit a sigh of relief for hoteliers, restaurateurs and other business owners across the continent who depend on big-spending foreign tourists. Before Chinese outbound tourism ground to a halt in 2020, it represented a particularly lucrative sector in Europe, with Chinese travelers coming in second to Americans in spending.

Trump said many companies would be investing in semiconductor manufacturing in the United States, including some from Taiwan and other places, to avoid getting hit by new tariffs.
