Analysis of EU tourism data reveals that between 2012 and 2023, 90% of French leisure trips occurred domestically, with Spain, Italy, and Germany as top international destinations. The COVID-19 pandemic significantly altered travel patterns, with many countries experiencing declines in international trips and increases in domestic travel. By 2023, most nations had largely recovered pre-pandemic levels, though variations persisted. For example, Ireland saw a sharp rise in international trips, while Lithuania remained below pre-pandemic international travel levels. The data underscores shifting preferences toward domestic tourism and varying recovery rates across EU Member States.
