KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 21 (Bernama) -- UserTesting, a leader in video-based human insight said 70 per cent of Singaporeans have a holiday planned this year-end with the significant drop in COVID-19 cases worldwide based on a survey conducted recently in Singapore.
Ninety per cent of respondents are travelling overseas for their next trip while 10 per cent are travelling internally despite rising costs due to inflation.
However, most Singaporeans are cost-cutting while planning their travels due to rising prices as a result of inflation, a statement said.
The survey revealed that 40 per cent of Singaporeans are now taking fewer trips than before, while 40 per cent are opting for cheaper accommodations rather than luxurious stays.
As for travelling during the holiday season, 80 per cent reported altering their plans and taking an economical route by choosing cheaper destinations to keep expenses in check.
The survey also revealed that 50 per cent of respondents will be travelling with their families instead of friends this year.
“Additionally, in terms of travel priorities in the near future, 50 per cent of Singaporeans are more inclined towards simple, short, and low-key vacations while some are also visiting their families to spend time with loved ones,” it said.
The survey showed that 80 per cent of Singaporeans are willing to plan trips abroad as they want to make up for lost time and move on to explore newer destinations outside of Singapore.
