𝘔𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘭𝘢, 𝘗𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘱𝘱𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴—The tourism landscape in the Philippines is poised for a prospective uptick in the year ahead with the anticipated series of extended weekends throughout 2024.

Secretary Christina Garcia Frasco of the Department of Tourism (DOT) has expressed her optimism, citing these elongated breaks as a potential catalyst for a substantial boost to the country's domestic tourism sector.

This positive outlook follows President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr.'s recent announcement of the schedule for these extended holiday breaks, a move lauded by the tourism chief for its significant impact on the nation's economic growth trajectory.

Reflecting on the statistical insights from 2022 released mid-2023, the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) noted a staggering 102 million domestic trips, contributing an impressive PHP1.5 trillion to domestic tourism expenditure. Among the overall PHP1.87 trillion in internal tourism expenditure, inclusive of spending by foreign visitors and Filipinos residing abroad, a substantial PHP1.5 trillion was directly attributed to domestic tourism spending. This economic contribution stemmed from expenses by local visitors, encompassing both domestic trips and components of international travel occurring within the country's borders.

The City of Manila joined the Top 20 most popular destinations this summer season, according to Spanish-based travel analytics firm, ForwardKeys.

According to the 2023 summer trends report published by ForwardKeys in June, Manila climbed eight notches higher, earning the 19th spot of this year’s most popular city list, citing that the rise in rankings was “principally explained by the relatively late relaxation of COVID-19 travel restrictions, which triggered a surge in interest."

This was based on the extensive searches made through online travel agencies, airlines and metasearch companies, including Google Flights, Kayak, Kiwi.com, Skyscanner, Wego, among others.

Neighboring ASEAN destination Bangkok topped the list, followed by these destinations in order: Paris, London, Denpasar, Barcelona, New York, Lisbon, Istanbul, Madrid, Athens, Palma Mallorca, Singapore, Tokyo, Kuala Lumpur, Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Los Angeles, Rome, Manila, and Frankfurt.
