뜻
Wishing someone a pleasant journey.
문화적 배경
In Spain, it is very common to use 'Buen viaje' as a quick shout as someone walks away. If you are in a group, expect everyone to say it individually; it's considered slightly rude to leave without a chorus of well-wishes. Mexicans often add 'con cuidado' (with care) to the wish. 'Que tengas buen viaje, vete con cuidado' is a very common way for mothers to say goodbye to their children. In Argentina, you might hear 'Que tengás' (with the accent on the 'a') due to voseo. It's a subtle but important regional marker. Colombians are known for their politeness and might use 'Que tenga un muy buen viaje' even with people they know well, as a sign of 'respeto'.
The 'Que' Rule
Whenever you want to wish something for someone else starting with 'Have a...', always start with 'Que' and use the subjunctive.
Avoid 'Tienes'
Saying 'Tienes un buen viaje' sounds like you are observing them having a good trip right now, not wishing them one.

Response
If someone says this to you, the standard response is '¡Gracias!' or '¡Igualmente!' (if they are also traveling).

자주 묻는 질문
12 질문Yes! 'Buen viaje' is very common and perfectly natural for all situations.
Because it's a wish, which requires the subjunctive mood in Spanish.
It is always 'buen viaje'. 'Bueno' loses the 'o' before masculine singular nouns.
Use 'Que tengan un buen viaje' (Latin America/Spain formal) or 'Que tengáis un buen viaje' (Spain informal).
It's better to use 'Que te vaya bien' or 'Ve con cuidado' for short trips.
Yes, but it sounds a bit more formal or like something you'd see on a card.
Spanish doesn't have a literal 'Safe travels' phrase; 'Que tengas un buen viaje' is the closest equivalent.
In writing, yes! Spanish uses both opening (¡) and closing (!) marks for emphasis.
Absolutely. It's a very polite way to end an email to someone going away.
It's the old root of 'viaje' and refers to provisions for a journey.
