Spring Festival begins Tourists from China and other countries arrive at Narita Airport. In countries such as China and Hong Kong, where the New Year is celebrated according to the lunar calendar, a long holiday to coincide with the Lunar New Year began on the 10th.

Last August, China lifted the ban on group trips to Japan for Chinese people, which had been restricted due to the spread of the new coronavirus. According to major airlines, the number of reservations for this year's Chinese New Year holiday period is only about 40% of the pre-coronavirus 2019 performance.
