These figures represent the annual estimates of overseas travel to the United Kingdom, based on interviews with passengers upon entering or leaving the UK by the main air, sea and tunnel routes.
Estimates based on the International Passenger Survey (IPS). Interviews are conducted with passengers arriving and departing from the country and include visits for all purposes, including for vacation, business, study, visiting friends and family, and other leisure purposes.
