René de Monchy: Tourism New Zealand CEO on the increase in the tourism sector

New tourism numbers show the sector is slowly climbing back.  Before Covid it was our largest export, and it's now our third largest, with visitors spending 2.1 billion dollars in the last quarter - Australians being the biggest contributors.  Tourism New Zealand Chief Executive René de Monchy told Mike Hosking that it's been a phased response from different parts of the world.  He says China only opened up around January, and some other countries were also a bit slow to start travelling.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
