JNTO March 2026 Read: 3.6 Million Visitors and What It Means for Small Operators
JNTO released its March 2026 visitor arrivals estimate yesterday, and the headline number is 3,618,900 — a new all-time high for the month of March, up 3.5% year-on-year. Cumulative arrivals through Q1 hit 10.68 million, crossing the 10-million mark for the second consecutive year.
