Bangkok, Dubai and Singapore top draws for desi globetrotter
Bangkok, Dubai and Singapore are the top foreign destinations for Indian travellers, while New Delhi and Mumbai are the biggest magnets for domestic and inbound foreign tourists. A study by one of the world’s biggest hotel booking portals, Hotels.com, has revealed that USA, Thailand, UK, UAE and Singapore are the top destination countries for outbound tourists from India.
In its India section, Hotels.com’s “Hotel Price Index (HPI) 2016″ says: “Demonetization did not seem to have a significant impact on travel plans for Indian tourists. Five of the top ten countries for outbound travel were long-haul destinations. Indians seem to be flocking to the country as UK claimed the third most popular country spot with Indians shelling approximately Rs 12,000 per room per night. USA, Germany, France and Italy were the other long-haul destinations to feature in top 10. Spends on accommodation per night in the USA remained unchanged in comparison to 2015 (approximately Rs 10,800).”
