SINGAPORE – Many Singaporeans will be celebrating the Chinese New Year, which falls on Jan 22 in 2023, away from home. With international borders reopened, Covid-19 curbs eased and a long weekend during the festive season, several travel agencies have reported a spike in overseas travel, with some saying the demand is comparable to pre-pandemic levels.
Mr Wong said the top three destinations are Europe, Japan and South Korea, with the average travel duration about eight days. The agency has curated festive itineraries such as local versions of reunion dinner on its Taiwan and South Korea CNY tours, as well as cherry blossom viewing in Taiwan. Traveloka president Caesar Indra said demand for CNY travel has returned to pre-Covid-19 levels, with destinations like Jakarta, Ho Chi Minh City and Kuala Lumpur popular among people jetting off for durations of eight to 13 days.
Expedia spokesman Lavinia Rajaram said CNY has always been a popular period for overseas travel among Asians, including Singaporeans. The top destinations for CNY travel among Singaporeans on its platform are cities in Thailand, Japan, Indonesia, South Korea, Taiwan and Malaysia, with most going for three- to four-day trips.Cruise companies have also reported brisk sales. Royal Caribbean said its CNY cruises are almost sold out, with cruises on Jan 12, 16 and 20 in high demand.
Ms Kay Swee Pin, chief executive of SA Tours, said that due to “revenge travel” in the last three months of 2022, some who have already made recent trips may choose not to travel during CNY.
