Singaporeans are redefining their summer travel plans in 2025, with 77% opting for lesser-known destinations to maximise their holidays, according to Skyscanner’s latest survey. The travel app’s Smarter Summer Report highlights a trend towards budget-conscious and flexible travel, as 89% of Singapore travellers aim to stretch their budgets and explore more destinations.
The report, which offers data-driven insights and travel hacks, reveals that 78% of travellers are willing to adjust their travel dates to save money. Cyndi Hui, Skyscanner Travel Trends and Destination Expert, noted, “Travellers are not just looking to get away, they are looking to make every moment of their summer holiday count by maximising value.”
Skyscanner’s DROPS tool is aiding this trend by providing hourly updates on flights with significant price drops, whilst their multi-city search tool allows users to plan trips with up to six destinations. This aligns with the 36% of travellers keen on visiting multiple locations in one trip.
The report also lists the top 10 most popular and cheapest alternative destinations for summer 2025. Bali, London, and Perth top the popularity list, whilst Labuan Bajo, Iloilo, and Hat Yai are highlighted as affordable alternatives.
With 93% of Singaporeans planning the same or more trips this year, the report aims to inspire those still undecided. Skyscanner’s comprehensive guide offers practical advice for making the most of the summer travel season.
