Tourism Industry Aotearoa is excited about the Government's new growth agenda.
Minister-in-charge Nicola Willis is considering visa changes, hoping to pull in more tourists.
Just over 321,000 people entered the country from overseas in November - 86 percent of pre-pandemic figures.
CEO Rebecca Ingram says there's lots of room to build on that.
"So as an industry, we're delighted to see such a strong focus on economic growth from the Government with the new portfolio for Minister Willis."
