In the third quarter of 2021, the number of nights spent by inbound tourists in the United Kingdom increased over the previous quarter but stayed below pre-pandemic levels. Between July and September 2021, international travelers in the UK recorded around 21.5 million overnight stays, while inbound visits to the United Kingdom reached approximately 1.3 million. Overall, figures for 2021 only refer to air passengers since it was not possible to conduct passenger surveys at different locations (for instance, UK seaports, Eurostar trains, and the Eurotunnel) between January and September 2021.
