Sojern sees strong travel intent ahead of the islands first Formula One in three years<\/i><\/p>\n

SINGAPORE<\/span>, Sept. 15, 2022<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — With this year’s Formula One (F1) Singapore Grand Prix set to see its biggest turnout<\/a><\/u> since its first night race back in 2008, the island city is once again ready to host world-class events after the COVID-19 pandemic. With the majority of COVID restrictions now lifted, visitor arrivals in Singapore<\/span> rose for the sixth consecutive month in July to 726,601, up from 543,733 in June, according to the tourism board<\/a><\/u>. Sojern<\/a>, a leading provider of digital marketing solutions for travel, shares travel trends and insights ahead of the return of the first Grand Prix in three years.<\/p>\n

How is travel intent to the Little Red Dot looking? <\/b><\/p>\n

Following the steady easing of COVID restrictions global flight bookings to Singapore<\/span> are up 305%<\/b>* since the start of 2022<\/b>. Bookings have bounced back from 13%** to 50% of 2019 levels***<\/b> (when comparing weekly booking volumes in 2022 vs. 2019), demonstrating strong interest in travel to the popular Southeast Asia<\/span> destination. In the leadup to the F1, Oceania, primarily Australia<\/span><\/b>, has shown the greatest interest in Singapore<\/span> travel, up 17% in 2022 versus 2019<\/b>. Other notable regions with market share increases compared to 2019 volumes include South Asia<\/span> (+5%), Western Europe<\/span> (+3%), Middle East<\/span> (+1%)<\/b>, with Sojern<\/a> anticipating that as we move closer to the F1 date travel demand from neighbouring regions such as Southeast Asia<\/span> and East Asia<\/span> will also increase.<\/p>\n

Australia<\/span> retains its position as Singapore’s<\/span> top origin country in 2022<\/b>, while increasing its market share at the same time (+18% from 18% in 2019 vs 36% in 2022)<\/b>. In alignment other notable countries moving up in 2022 are India<\/span> (+6% from 4% in 2019 vs 10% in 2022), Philippines<\/span> (+5% in 2022), and Indonesia<\/span> (-3% from 7% in 2019 vs to 4% in 2022)<\/b>, with new countries for 2022 including the United Kingdom<\/span> and South Korea<\/span> in 6th and 10th places<\/b> respectively. The United States<\/span> (8%) and Thailand<\/span> (6%) remain in the top five<\/b> whilst China<\/span> and Japan<\/span> drop out of the top 10 in 2022<\/b>, which may in part be attributable to ongoing inbound and outbound travel restrictions in both countries.<\/p>\n

Present in the market since 2015, Sojern’s<\/a> portfolio in the city-state includes large hotel groups such as Frasers Hospitality, Accor and Hyatt, <\/b>as well as the flag carrier airline Singapore Airlines<\/b>, the title sponsor of the Formula One Singapore Grand Prix.
