JNTO analyzed that growth of visitors from U.S. and Australia resulted from more exposures of a variety of tourism resources on many kinds of media. The U.K. market was influenced by lower seat availability for travelers from U.K. on the Japan-U.K. routes because of an increase in Japanese travelers to U.K.
