Holy Door Jubilee Revives Indonesian Pilgrimage Travel to Europe
Indonesian travel to Europe has slowed due to global economic and geopolitical factors, but the Vatican's opening of the Holy Door for the 2025 Jubilee has renewed interest in pilgrimage travel.
The introduction of a new five-year Schengen visa was expected to encourage more travel, but its impact has been limited, according to industry experts.
However, there is no guarantee that eligible applicants will always get the five-year visa
- Ricky Hilton, general manager of Golden Rama Tour & Travel, noted that some clients have received the visa from France, Spain, and Norway, but the overall number remains small.
- Hellen Xu, CEO of Panorama JTB Tours Indonesia, explained that the five-year multiple-entry Schengen visa is available only to applicants who have obtained a Schengen visa in the past three years.
The effect of the five-year Schengen visa on group bookings has been minimal, according to Hellen Xu.
