China recently relaxed its zero-COVID policy, which could pave the way for more travel by that country\u2019s tourists to the US.<\/p>\n

Domestic airports, including Las Vegas\u2019 Harry Reid International Airport, could see pandemic recovery efforts bolstered by a renewed influx of flights from China.<\/p>\n

China\u2019s underlying travel demand is diverse, and the reopening underway is expected to benefit both business and leisure travel,\u201d<\/strong> noted Fitch Ratings in a recent report. \u201cThis combined demand should be a growth catalyst to large hub airports with sizable business and international travel segments and whose air traffic recovery has previously lagged domestic-focused, regional airports reliant on leisure travel.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Increased travel to Las Vegas by Chinese tourists could be crucial for Strip operators<\/a> this year against the backdrop of a looming recession in the US. Economic contraction in the US would likely compel consumers to rein in discretionary spending and potentially cancel trips to casinos.<\/p>\n

How Harry Reid Airport Can Get China Boost<\/h2>\n

When it comes to China flights, Harry Reid International Airport isn\u2019t considered a gateway airport comparable to Los Angeles, San Francisco, or New York.<\/p>\n

\n

Airports in those cities offer travelers direct flights to and from Chinese cities — in some instances daily, or at the very least, several times weekly. China-originating flights to Las Vegas typically involve a stop or two and the potential for fliers to change airlines. Fortunately for Harry Reid International<\/a> and casino operators, many of those flights stop in Los Angeles and San Francisco, meaning what\u2019s good for those airports can benefit Las Vegas, too.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cBefore the pandemic, China travel typically represented just a low to mid-single-digit percent of gateway airports\u2019 respective total passenger levels. Still, the growth potential is strong, given the building economic ties and leisure-oriented demand,\u201d added Fitch.<\/p>\n

In addition to China, other Asia-Pacific countries with citizens that frequent Las Vegas include Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. A recovery in flight volumes from those nations could also be a boon for Harry Reid International as well as Strip operators.<\/p>\n

Strip Operators Cater to Chinese Visitors<\/h2>\n

If there\u2019s one country outside the US that Las Vegas casino operators cater to, it\u2019s China. Owing to established footprints in Macau<\/a>, MGM Resorts International and Wynn Resorts are among the Strip operators that stand to benefit from a fresh influx of Chinese tourists.<\/p>\n

Proving their devotion to Chinese bettors, MGM\u2019s famed conservatory at the Bellagio has a dedicated year of the rabbit exhibit for Chinese New Year. That’s while Wynn began decorating its atrium Monday in a rabbit theme that will run through mid-February.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Other Strip venues, including MGM\u2019s Aria, multiple Caesars Entertainment properties, and Resorts World are planning year of the rabbit festivities and decorations. Several off-Strip casinos are planning similar offerings, indicating Las Vegas is doing all it can to woo Chinese visitors back to the US gaming center.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
