Nearly nine in 10 plan to maximise summer holidays this year

77% are willing to choose a lesser-known destination.

Almost nine in 10 (89%) Singaporean travellers are planning to maximise their summer holidays this year, according to a Skyscanner report.

To achieve this, 50% of travellers maximise their budget by using travel comparison tools to find the best value flights, hotels, and car hires.

Moreover, 42% extend their holidays to travel during the shoulder season to avoid peak crowds whilst 78% are open to shifting their travel day to save money.

Further, 77% are willing to choose a lesser-known destination and visit multiple destinations in one trip (36%).

According to the report, the top three cheapest destinations for June and September are Langkawi and Penang in Malaysia followed by Haikou, China.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
