And according to data gathered by Google via Google Flight searches, many Singaporeans are already making plans to travel during the period of June to August 2023. Time for an overseas getaway... where we'll probably bump into tons of other Singaporeans who have the same idea (oh well).

Here's where Singaporeans are travelling for their holidays:
