1 Market Profile In 2012, China was Australia s second largest inbound market for visitor arrivals and the largest market for total expenditure and visitor nights. It was the third largest market for total dispersed nights 1 during Findings from Tourism Australia s recent international tourism research project 2, indicate that when selecting a holiday destination Chinese visitors are wanting (in order of importance): natural beauty, safety and security, good food and wine, friendly and open locals and native and cultural heritage activities. Compared to other out of region destinations, Australia ranks very highly for value for money, interesting local wildlife, luxury accommodation options, natural beauty and ease of obtaining a visa. The research shows that Australia delivers a positive holiday experience that exceeds the expectations of Chinese visitors. The latest forecast by the Tourism Forecasting Committee (TFC), released in October 2012, estimates that arrivals from China will grow 12 per cent in 2012/13 and 9 per cent in 2013/14, with an 8 per cent annual compound growth rate expected between 2011/12 and 2016/17. $ bn Potential for the China market to be worth by 2020 (Tourism 2020) $4.2bn total spend Total spend from China in 2012 (up 13 per cent on 2011) 4 626,400 arrivals Chinese visitor arrivals in 2012 (up 15.6 per cent on 2011) 5 Key airlines and share of passengers in China Southern Airlines Cathay Pacific Airways 3% 11% China Eastern Airlines 5% 21% Qantas Air China Virgin Australia Singapore Airlines 6% 11% 16% Emirates Other 12% 15% Table includes direct and indirect capacity 27.8m total nights Chinese visitor nights spent in Australia in 2012 (up 7 per cent on 2011) 4 5.3m dispersed nights 1 Chinese visitor nights spent outside gateway cities in 2012 (up 4 per cent on 2011) 4 Australia ranks 11th among all out of region outbound destinations for Chinese travellers 6 Visitor profile in % repeat visitors 4 68% of total arrivals are for leisure years largest demographic 5 $7,036 average spend 4 47 nights average stay 4 Oct-Jan and May-Jun peak booking period Dec-Feb and Jul-Aug peak travel period In this Market Profile Market Performance Consumer Research Aviation Landscape Distribution Find More Information Sources: 1.

10 Consumer Research In 2012, Tourism Australia undertook a major international tourism research project 8 into how global consumers view Australia and what most motivates them to visit, identifying the triggers and experiences important to the consumer when selecting a holiday destination. The research involved 13,389 consumers across 11 markets, who have travelled long haul in the past two years and/or plan to travel long haul in the next few years. The results below refer to the responses of Chinese consumers. 2.1 What travellers from China want in a holiday destination Participants were asked what they look for when choosing any holiday destination. The graph below outlines the top five considerations of Chinese respondents. Their key considerations are: natural beauty, safety and security, good food and wine, friendly and open locals, and native and cultural heritage activities. China: Top 5 Importance Factors World class beauty and natural environments A safe and secure destination Good food, wine, local cuisine and produce 42 Friendly and open citizens, local hospitality Native or cultural heritage or activities Rich history and heritage Clean cities, good road infrastructure with clear signposts Spectacular coastal scenery A range of quality accomodation options A destination that offers value for money Flights with no stop-overs Different and interesting local wildlife Great shopping / world class brand names A family friendly destination Good leisure activities such as nightclubs/bars and/or casinos Ease of obtaining visa Luxury accommodation and facilities Romantic destination Great swimming beaches 10 Read as: 57 per cent of Chinese respondents ranked world class beauty and natural environments and safety and security in their top five considerations when choosing a destination 8.

11 Consumer Research 2.2 Associations with Australia For Chinese respondents, Australia is known for having beautiful natural environments, spectacular coastal scenery and interesting local wildlife. Compared to other out of region destinations, Australia ranks highly (first, second or third) for value for money, interesting local wildlife, luxury accommodation options, natural beauty, coastal scenery and ease of obtaining a visa. 2.3 Opportunities for Australia highlighted by the research The research shows that Australia delivers a positive holiday experience that exceeds the expectations of Chinese visitors. This was particularly clear for their perception of Australia offering good food and wine and safety and security. Food and wine rankings were very high amongst those who have visited Australia and sampled the country s offering, compared to the perceptions of those who had not been, presenting future marketing opportunities. Likewise for the perception of safety and security, Chinese respondents who have visited Australia ranked it as number one for this attribute, compared to other out of region destinations. Given the importance placed on safety by Chinese respondents, this presents an opportunity to leverage word of mouth recommendations by those who have been to Australia once they return to China. 2.4 Preferred Australian experiences Chinese respondents prefer experiences in Australia which include wildlife (both aquatic and non-aquatic) and coastal or harbour settings. They also had a preference for niche activities including surfing, diving, fishing and golf. 11 China Market Profile April 2013
