Indonesia Tourism Faces Ramadan Booking Drop

Indonesia's tourism sector grapples with declining Ramadan holiday bookings amid economic uncertainty, contrasting sharply with ambitious growth targets for 2026. The government aims for 16 to 17.6 million international visitors this year, building on 2025's 15.39 million arrivals and December's 14.4% surge to 1.41 million. January 2026 saw over 1 million foreign tourists, with Bali welcoming nearly half via Ngurah Rai Airport, though monthly figures dipped 17% from December.
