Australians venturing overseas
Up until 2020, there was a consistent, significant year-on-year increase in the number of overseas departures of Australian residents, with above seven million traveling outside the country during the financial year 2020. This number decreased greatly in 2021, largely due to travel restrictions, with overseas departures slightly recovering in 2022. Australians visiting the USA in 2022 spent around 1.9 billion Australian dollars in total. Although New Zealand was the most popular outbound destination for Australians in 2022, those who visited New Zealand in the same year spent less at around 654 million Australian dollars.
