The number of travelers from China and Japan showed some of the biggest increases globally to Paris during the July 24 to Aug. 11 period covering the Olympics, according to data from travel analytics firm ForwardKeys.
Asian travelers headed to the Games are also doing it in style. China and Japan are among the countries showing the biggest gains for premium travel bookings — demand doubled among travelers from both countries compared to the same period last year, according to ForwardKeys.
