SINGAPORE, Nov. 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- While it looks like Singaporeans may have more exciting plans for Christmas this year, few are probably going to enjoy themselves as they did before the pandemic.
Through a survey conducted by Traveloka on Singaporeans' festive appetite, it's surprising to note that while 90% of Singaporeans love spending time and exchanging gifts with their loved ones between Christmas and New Year, 100% of surveyed respondents are planning to spend less on food, shopping and gifts, staycations and attractions and tours.
Here's why.
Money talks: COVID-19 has tightened the purse strings of Singaporeans
This is not all.
Prior to the latest announcements of Vaccinated Travel Lane (VTL) extensions, Traveloka found that more Singaporeans (63%) are now choosing more affordable staycations to cure their travel bug. In comparison to 14% who used to spend above $1000 on lavish staycations, only 8% remained. And when it comes to exploring, more Singaporeans are turning to domestic attractions and tours that cost them less to fuel their need to travel.
With new options to travel overseas, holiday planning and gift shopping may be even more challenging for those who want to enjoy both a great holiday and festive celebration.
In preparation of giving Singaporeans the festive break and celebration they deserve, Traveloka has prepared a big year end sale to ease holiday expenditures and allow Singaporeans to enjoy what they love most - dining and shopping.
