With the end of the Spring Festival holiday, off-peak travel is gradually becoming a new boom in the tourism market. According to the "2024 Spring Festival Travel Report for the Year of the Dragon" released by Ctrip, the passenger flow of popular tourist cities will decline rapidly after the holiday, and hotels, air tickets, etc. will also be greatly reduced. Airfares, in particular, have seen a significant trend.
Recently, Yuan Jin, a young man from Hangzhou, was full of expectations for the off-peak trip: "Our family of 3 has already bought a ticket from Hangzhou to Sanya on Friday, and it is less than 300 yuan per person. "This kind of ** is heartwarming. Post-holiday off-peak travel can not only enjoy more preferential travel, but also avoid congestion during peak tourism periods and better appreciate the beautiful scenery of tourist attractions.
The large number of air tickets after the holiday has made off-peak travel the first choice for many travelers. According to statistics, the air tickets** after the Lantern Festival have fallen by more than half compared with before. For example, the minimum discount on flights from Hangzhou to Sanya has been reduced to $12% off, flying to Chongqing, Yantai, Zhengzhou and other places only costs more than 100 yuan. This kind of ** is much lower than the fare of high-speed rail, which makes people feel like they have picked up a bargain.
Not only domestic air tickets** sharply**, but also some outbound route air tickets** have also dropped significantly after the holiday. There are even some air tickets** that do not exceed 1,000 yuan. At this time, the staggered peak tour with middle-aged and elderly customers as the main force has become a hot spot at present. Many tourism companies have also launched travel routes suitable for off-peak travel to meet the needs of travelers with different needs.
For off-peak travel, the relevant person in charge of Hangzhou CTS Spring and Autumn Travel Agency said: "It is indeed a wise choice to choose off-peak travel after the holiday. "Staggered travel can not only avoid congestion, but also enjoy more travel benefits. For example, recently, many airlines have increased their inbound and outbound flights to Sanya and Haikou, resulting in a significant drop in air tickets to Sanya**.
According to the query of the Ctrip platform, from February 17 to the end of February, the air ticket from Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou and other places to Sanya** is as low as 1 to 2 discounts, and the minimum is only about 200 yuan. From Hangzhou, Chengdu, Chongqing and other cities to Sanya, you will also be able to buy low-cost air tickets with a discount of about 2% from late February. This makes off-peak travel a choice for more travelers.
Not only that, but in February and March after the Spring Festival holiday, many places will usher in a new wave of tourism peaks. Taking Sanya as an example, in recent years, it has ushered in a small peak of staggered tourism after the Spring Festival holiday. This year, Sanya is even more suitable for off-peak travel, and the sharp drop in air tickets** also provides more choices for travelers.
In addition, the off-peak outing can also be combined with the upcoming flower-viewing season to better appreciate the beauty of spring. According to Qunar data, after the Spring Festival holiday, air tickets from Hangzhou** showed a downward trend, and the average payment this week** fell by nearly 40% compared with last week. After the 15th day of the first lunar month (February 24), airfares** will continue to drop. Staggered travel is becoming a new way for travelers to seek.
In general, off-peak travel is gradually becoming a new trend in the tourism market. The large number of air tickets after the holiday makes off-peak travel more attractive. Travelers can not only enjoy more preferential rates by choosing off-peak travel, but also avoid congestion and better appreciate the beautiful scenery of tourist attractions. Staggered peak travel makes travel more cost-effective and more comfortable, so why not? Take advantage of this good time to plan your own off-peak trip!
