INDONESIA SETS RECORD-BREAKING
TOURISM SPEND IN 2025
Indonesia’s tourism sector continues its impressive growth trajectory. According to the World Travel & Tourism Council 2025 Economic Impact Research, international visitor spend is projected to reach an all-time high of IDR 344 trillion this year – nearly 12% above the previous record in 2019, before the pandemic.
This sharp rise from IDR 289.1 trillion in 2024 reflects renewed global confidence and a strong appetite for Indonesia’s diverse tourism offerings. Domestic tourism also remains a powerful growth engine, reaching a record IDR 381.4 trillion in 2025.
Overall, Travel & Tourism’s contribution to the Indonesian economy is expected to reach an unprecedented IDR 1,269.8 trillion, representing 5.5% of the nation’s GDP – a 21% increase over 2019 levels. Employment in the sector continues to thrive as well, with nearly 14 million jobs supported, accounting for 9.3% of total national employment.
For South Lombok and beyond, these numbers signal a positive outlook for continued growth and tourism development across Indonesia’s most captivating destinations.
NEW DIRECT FLIGHTS FROM LOMBOK TO LABUAN BAJO
Wings Air has launched a new direct route connecting Lombok and Labuan Bajo, two of the archipelago’s most iconic destinations. Operating three times weekly, this new connection allows travellers to seamlessly combine unforgettable experiences – from diving with manta rays in Labuan Bajo to discovering Lombok’s waterfalls and pristine beaches – all without transiting through Jakarta or Bali.
Beyond convenience, the route is expected to drive growth for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and support local hospitality and creative sectors. Tourism stakeholders view this improved connectivity as part of Indonesia’s sustainable tourism strategy, distributing development beyond Java and Bali.
With the addition of Labuan Bajo, Lombok International Airport now serves nine domestic routes, including Jakarta, Yogyakarta, Surabaya, Bali, and Makassar, alongside direct international connections to Singapore and Kuala Lumpur.
