TTDI’s benchmarks and measures are, “the set of factors and policies that enable the sustainable and resilient development of the Travel and Tourism (T&T) sector, which contributes to the development of a country”, as mentioned in the TTDI report.
The convenient transportation infrastructures, the abundance of tourism resources such as rich nature and cultures, and good security in Japan are specifically evaluated and bring the nation to #1.
Furthermore, Japan’s efforts to roll out various programs to adapt to changing conditions to take advantage of shifting demand dynamics, from a destination point of view, such as providing discounts, coupons, and subsidies for domestic travel are also highly appreciated.
