Japan Tourism Agency Launches Kyushu Recovery Support Discount
Fukuoka Prefecture will sell the “Kyushu Recovery Support Discount Fukuoka Campaign” under the government’s “Kyushu Recovery Support Discount” travel assistance program.
The eligible stay period is from October 1 through stays on December 15. The prefecture has allocated JPY 1.96093 billion in its September supplementary budget and is expected to begin sales within the month.
The Kyushu Recovery Support Discount applies to travel and accommodation products in Japan’s Kyushu region involving stays of one night or more, offering a 50% discount on travel and accommodation costs. Kumamoto and Kagoshima prefectures, where tourism has been heavily affected by cancellations, offer a 60% discount. The maximum discount is JPY 20,000 per night for accommodation-only products and transportation-inclusive accommodation travel products; JPY 30,000 for transportation-inclusive accommodation travel products of two nights or more; and JPY 35,000 for multi-destination travel products covering accommodations in two or more prefectures.
Sales and implementation periods vary by prefecture, and some prefectures also offer their own support programs.
