TIA supports a high-quality offer to international visitors but has the interest in ensuring that New Zealand remains an attractive and affordable destination for Kiwis.   

Domestic tourism makes up 60% of the total industry so plays a vitally important role in providing base demand upon which international is built.  

Domestic tourism is important for being the reason we have extensive facilities and amenities within the tourism industry and for providing a buffer to disruption to international tourism as we experienced through the COVID-19 period.   

TIA’s expectation is that businesses price fairly based on their unique business circumstances.
