Visa releases findings from its 2026 Global Travel Intentions (GTI) study, focusing on travel preferences in Asia Pacific markets amid changing global conditions. The study is based on responses from over 47,000 participants worldwide, including more than 17,000 respondents from Asia Pacific. Across the surveyed markets, Visa says travelers look for familiar and trusted destinations, indicating a preference for known options rather than fully new itineraries. The report also describes greater “intent” in trip planning, suggesting travelers plan more deliberately than in prior periods. In addition, it highlights flexibility as a key theme, with respondents seeking the ability to adjust plans in response to uncertainties in the global environment. The three outlets summarize the same core points: the GTI study’s sample size and regional coverage, and the main behavioral themes attributed to Asia Pacific travelers—familiarity, practicality in planning, and flexibility. The coverage does not add new policy details or specific country-by-country results beyond these general findings.
