The Philippine tourism authority projects 6.4 million tourist arrivals in 2026, according to a recent announcement confirmed by the tourism secretary. The target reflects ongoing efforts to boost inbound travel throughout the year.

Rising fuel prices are not expected to prevent the country from meeting this arrival figure. The tourism secretary emphasized that the sector remains resilient despite economic challenges posed by increasing fuel costs.
