Well, as it turns out, you are not alone! According to Expedia\u2019s travel booking data from the summer months of June to August, Singaporeans tend to be last-minute travel planners, with 50% of Singapore travellers making their travel bookings barely a month in advance!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For those of you who enjoy planning your travels spontaneously, you will be mighty pleased to know that last-minute Singapore travellers really know how to seize a good travel deal when they smell one. Check out our 3 travel hacks below to get you out of the country fast, and on budget!<\/p>\n<h2>Tip 1: Book your flights between seven to 13 days in advance for greatest savings<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10937 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.sg\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/flights-to-bangkok-expedia.jpg\" alt=\"cheap flights to bangkok expedia\" width=\"500\" height=\"322\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Expedia\u2019s data showed that the cheapest airfares, up to 10 percent cheaper than the average fares during the same period, were booked between seven to 13 days in advance of the travel date, showing that Singaporeans know how to seize a good travel deal when they spot one.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Data also showed that flights can cost up to 25% more when booked more than 3 months in advance! Sometimes even the early birds don\u2019t get the best deals\u2026<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em><strong>[icon name=&#8221;lightbulb-o&#8221; class=&#8221;&#8221; unprefixed_class=&#8221;&#8221;] Additional tip<\/strong><\/em><em><strong>: <\/strong><\/em>Booking your air tickets on a Sunday and save up to 16% on airfares, and always include a Saturday night stay in your bookings.<\/p>\n<h2>Tip 2: Follow the crowds and hop on the next plane to Bangkok, Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur or Manila<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Among the most popular city destinations for last-minute travel bookings, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong and Manila emerged as the top four cities for Singapore travellers.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-17853\" src=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.sg\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/toybus-pexels-photo-386009-1024x683-1.jpeg\" alt=\"Travel Safety Tips for Kids\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Bookings made for travel to Kuala Lumpur tend to be made closer to the actual travel date, with 65 percent of travel bookings made less than two weeks in advance. Last-minute bookings to Manila, Bangkok and Hong Kong took 45 percent, 40 percent and 35 percent of the total bookings to these destinations respectively.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Getting around these cities is also easy and fuss-free, with affordable and well-connected public transport options such as the MTR, buses and trams in Hong Kong, the MRT and Skytrain (BTS) in Bangkok, the LRT and MRT in Manila, as well as the LRT, MRT and the monorail in Kuala Lumpur. It\u2019s so easy to travel around these cities that little planning needs to be done beforehand.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Plus, these public transport options are best for avoiding peak-hour traffic jams. For more information on the kind of train and tourist passes available at these cities, check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/travelblog.expedia.com.sg\/travel-tips-inspiration\/travel-passes\/\">handy guide here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With the wide variety of hotels to stay at in various districts, accommodation options remain aplenty &#8211; even when you\u2019ve booked your trip at the last-minute! Many hotels are centrally-located and have major attractions and plenty of F&amp;B options within walking distance.<\/p>\n<h2>Tip 3: Keep ready-made travel itineraries on hand<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Getting out of the country becomes super easy when you don\u2019t have to worry about planning ahead.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Whether you\u2019re a shopaholic, a foodie or an adrenaline junkie, the Expedia blog is a treasure trove of itineraries and travel guides to help plan your weekend.

Also, take time to immerse yourself in local culture by visiting the Malaysia Heritage Walk or the Chan See Shu Yuen Temple and Sri Mahamariamman Temple close by.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you have plenty of time on your hands and are looking for adrenalin-pumping fun, make plans to visit Sunway Lagoon, which is home to a theme park, water park, zoo and a mall all in a single location; or visit the District 21 indoor theme park at IOI City Mall Putrajaya.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For more ideas, check out this list of <a href=\"https:\/\/travelblog.expedia.com.sg\/asia\/4-interesting-attractions-in-kuala-lumpur\/\">alternative attractions<\/a> in Kuala Lumpur.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"button button- \" href=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.sg\/Cheap-Flights-To-Kuala-Lumpur.d180008.Travel-Guide-Flights\" target=\"_self\"><i class=\"icon-entypo-flight\"><\/i> Take me to Kuala Lumpur!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-14565\" src=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.sg\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/route-divider-exp-800x82-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"82\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>BANGKOK, THAILAND<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As one of Singaporeans\u2019 favorite cities, Bangkok is an incredibly fascinating destination with a myriad of shopping options, unique bars and cultural activities.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-10290\" src=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.sg\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/chatuchak-weekend-market-1024x684-1.jpg\" alt=\"Chatuchak WEekend Market\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To experience the best of local shopping, go <a href=\"https:\/\/travelblog.expedia.com.sg\/asia\/bangkok-market-hopping\/\">market-hopping<\/a>! Chatuchak Market is the obvious choice for the day, with over 15,000 stalls selling everything you could imagine. Another great option is Artbox Bangkok, a night market set within a cluster of containers where you can find lots of interesting knick-knacks designed by the locals, creative food options, as well as live music to keep you entertained through the night.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Rooftop bars are hugely popular in Bangkok, especially since The Hangover 2 featured a scene at the stunning Sky Bar at Lebua State Tower. For equally spectacular views minus the crowds, head over to Vertigo at Banyan Tree Bangkok or the Octave Rooftop Bar at the Marriot Hotel Sukhumvit for 360 degree views of the city.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For more ideas, check out <a href=\"https:\/\/travelblog.expedia.com.sg\/asia\/weekend-bangkok-itinerary\/\">this Bangkok itinerary<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"button button- \" href=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.sg\/lp\/flights\/sin\/bkk\/singapore-to-bangkok\" target=\"_self\"><i class=\"icon-entypo-flight\"><\/i> Take me to Bangkok!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-14565\" src=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.sg\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/route-divider-exp-800x82-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"82\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>MANILA, PHILIPPINES<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Known as the \u2018Pearl of the Orient\u2019, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.sg\/Manila.d178282.Destination-Travel-Guides\">Manila<\/a> is one of Asia\u2019s most underrated cities, that offers <a href=\"https:\/\/travelblog.expedia.com.sg\/asia\/one-week-in-the-philippines\/\">way more<\/a> than just vibrant shopping and delicious local food.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/thumbnails.trvl-media.com\/VgPZ-Y6XgDH98dbmmecZkgQs2CM=\/768x432\/images.trvl-media.com\/media\/content\/shared\/images\/travelguides\/destination\/178282\/Quiapo-Church-48487.jpg\" width=\"768\" height=\"432\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you are here on a short trip, take some time to immerse yourself in local culture by visiting the Metropolitan Museum of Manila, the Cultural Center of the Philippines and the Marikina Shoe Museum. The latter is home to a staggering 749 pairs of shoes from the former First Lady, Imelda Marcos, amongst others, and shoe-lovers will feel right at home at this fascinating place.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you fancy a piece of the city\u2019s colonial history, head over to the walled area of <a href=\"https:\/\/travelblog.expedia.com.sg\/experience\/manila-historical-attractions\/\">Intramuros<\/a> \u2013 Manila\u2019s most historic district &#8211; to learn about its Spanish colonialism past.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"button button- \" href=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.sg\/Cheap-Flights-To-Manila.d178282.Travel-Guide-Flights\" target=\"_self\"><i class=\"icon-entypo-flight\"><\/i> Take me to Manila!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-14565\" src=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.sg\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/route-divider-exp-800x82-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"82\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>HONG KONG<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As one of the world\u2019s most densely populated metropolises, Hong Kong is a melting pot of Asian and Western cultures.

Another fascinating attraction &#8211; the Big Buddha at the Po Lin Monastery on Lantau Island &#8211; offers some serenity away from the crowds of the city, making this a worthwhile visit as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For deal-hunters, check out any of the street markets in Hong Kong, including the Ladies\u2019 Market for fashion, the Temple Street Night market for souvenirs and local snacks or the Apliu Street Flea Market for electronics.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If the markets aren\u2019t happening enough, check out the famed Lan Kwai Fong \u2013 Hong Kong\u2019s most popular nightlife spot that is home to over 90 restaurants and bars. For those who prefer a more relaxed night out, take a night cruise from Victoria Harbor and be dazzled by the stunning city lights.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"button button- \" href=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.sg\/lp\/flights\/sin\/hkg\/singapore-to-hong-kong\" target=\"_self\"><i class=\"icon-entypo-flight\"><\/i> Take me to Hong Kong!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-14565\" src=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.sg\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/route-divider-exp-800x82-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"82\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-18747\" src=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.sg\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Last-Minute-Summer-Travel-Infographic-05-800x450-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With all this information at your fingertips, getting on the plane for your next getaway can be as easy as ABC!
