Singapore, which has been a major tourist spot for Indian travellers pre-COVID, has quickly become a favourite destination again with travel re-opening and more than 2.19 lakh visitors in the first half of the year, said area director, India, Middle East & South Asia, Singapore Tourism Board, Renjie Wong on Friday.
“After more than two years, it heartens us to welcome Indian travellers to Singapore again in good numbers and see them enjoy both familiar favourites and our new, re-imagined experiences. India has emerged as our second largest source market. Hyderabad is an important source market among the 14 cities with direct flight connectivity to Singapore,” he told a press conference here.
He was speaking after a travel road show ‘Deepening Connections, Achieving Together!’ being taken to five cities to “reconnect and engage” with trade partner-friends in India. More than 160 city-based travel agents attended the programme.
