Based on statistics from the Japan Tourism Agency in 2023, we can see that there are significant differences in the length of stay patterns of Hong Kong and British tourists in Japan.
Hong Kong Visitors
- Less than 6 days : About 44.9% of Hong Kong tourists choose to stay in Japan for less than 6 days, which reflects that Hong Kong people tend to travel for short periods of time, probably because of the geographical proximity, which makes it convenient for short trips.
- 7 to 13 days : This time range has the largest number of travelers, accounting for 50.8% , indicating that a one- to two-week vacation is the preferred travel duration for Hong Kong people.
- 14 to 20 days : Only 3.3% of travelers choose to stay for more than two weeks, indicating that longer trips are relatively rare for Hong Kong travelers.
- 21 days to 1 year : Very few people choose to stay for more than three weeks, accounting for only 1.0% , and these trips are usually special circumstances such as visiting relatives or long-term vacations.
British passengers
- 6 days or less : Only 5.6% of UK travelers choose to stay for less than 6 days, probably because travelers from Europe need longer travel time to make the most of long-distance travel.
- 7 to 13 days : About 38.3% of British travelers choose to stay in this time range, which shows that the British also have a certain preference for holidays of one to two weeks, but the proportion is significantly lower than that of Hong Kong travelers.
- 14 to 20 days : British travelers prefer longer trips, with 44.2% staying in Japan for around two weeks, indicating that British travelers prefer in-depth travel.
- 21 days to 1 year : Relatively speaking, more British travelers would choose to stay for more than three weeks, accounting for 11.8% , indicating that British travelers are more accepting of long-term stays.
In summary, Hong Kong travelers tend to take shorter trips, while British travelers tend to stay longer to make the most of their long-distance trips. These different travel habits also reflect differences in geographical location, cultural background and holiday arrangements .
