Tung did not reveal the total number of long-haul visitors to the attraction from January to mid-May, but said they amounted to about 15 per cent of traffic over the period.
Long-haul visitors made up 22 per cent of customers over the same time frame in pre-pandemic 2018.
Tung, a veteran of the tourism industry with two decades of experience, has worked with K11 Concepts, Hong Kong Disneyland, the Tourism Board, Australian airline Qantas and the city’s now-closed Cathay Dragon airline when it was called Dragonair.
He added that he was confident that long-haul customers would return as flight capacity continued to grow.
Tung said that daily visitor numbers between January and mid-May were up 40 per cent year on year, buoyed by the Southeast Asian factor.
