SG residents searching for outbound travel up 4.4x during CNY: Sojern

Searches for inbound travel, meanwhile, increased 3.7 times.

Travel trends for the Chinese New Year (CNY) revealed a 4.4 times increase in searches outbound of Singapore.

According to a report released by Sojern, searches inbound to Lion City also increased by 3.7 times.

Sojern attributes this to an increase in vaccinated travel lanes that are currently operating this year, compared to the previous year. Leisure was also cited as one of the factors behind this outlook, with searches up 6.5 times.

Meanwhile, Malaysia topped the list of top destinations for Singaporeans, with 56% of searches attributed to the country.

Newcomers to the list include South Korea (5th place), Maldives (9th), and Germany (10th).

India, Australia, the US, Thailand, the UK, and the Philippines made up the rest of the list.

Travellers were also observed to be travelling longer than a week in order to take advantage of CNY’s shortened working week.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
