A white paper by Scoot, based on a YouGov survey of over 5,000 respondents in APAC, reveals a rising trend in solo travel among Malaysians. 94% of Malaysians plan to travel solo, while 61% have already done so. Motivated by self-discovery, wellbeing, and the freedom to plan personal itineraries, Malaysians—especially millennials—are increasingly choosing solo travel as a lifestyle. Notably, 86% would recommend solo travel to others.
Solo Travel Surges
“While the findings do not represent the end to group and family travel, the way we travel expresses our individuality and allows for self-discovery.” – Agatha Yap, Director of Marketing, Scoot
“With an extensive network especially in the Asia-Pacific, Scoot is excited to be able to play a role in enabling access to some of the most sought-after and yet-to-be discovered destinations, empowering more travellers, whether solo or group, to explore the world with greater confidence and enthusiasm,” she added.
