Analyst Opinion

The Package Holidays market in Malaysia has been experiencing significant growth in recent years, reflecting the increasing demand for convenient and hassle-free travel options among Malaysian consumers.

Customer preferences:
Malaysian consumers are increasingly opting for package holidays due to the convenience and value they offer. With busy lifestyles and limited time for trip planning, many travelers in Malaysia prefer the ease of booking a comprehensive package that includes accommodation, transportation, and activities. Additionally, package holidays often come with cost savings compared to booking each component separately, making them an attractive option for budget-conscious travelers.

Trends in the market:
One notable trend in the Package Holidays market in Malaysia is the rise of themed and customizable packages. Travelers are looking for unique and personalized experiences, leading to an increase in themed packages such as culinary tours, adventure holidays, and wellness retreats. Tour operators and travel agencies are responding to this trend by offering a variety of themed packages to cater to different interests and preferences.

Local special circumstances:
The diverse cultural and natural attractions in Malaysia play a significant role in shaping the Package Holidays market. From vibrant cities to pristine beaches and lush rainforests, Malaysia offers a wide range of experiences for travelers to explore. This diversity allows tour operators to create specialized packages that showcase the best of what the country has to offer, attracting both domestic and international tourists.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The growing economy and increasing disposable income in Malaysia have contributed to the growth of the Package Holidays market. As more Malaysians have the financial means to travel, the demand for convenient and all-inclusive holiday packages has risen. Additionally, the government's efforts to promote tourism and develop infrastructure have made Malaysia an attractive destination for both leisure and business travelers, further driving the growth of the package holiday sector.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on bookings, revenues, and sales channels of package holidays.

Modeling approach:

Market sizes are determined through a bottom-up approach, building on a specific rationale for each market. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use financial reports, the Global Consumer Survey, third-party studies and reports, data from industry associations (e.g., UNWTO), and price data of major players in respective markets. To estimate the number of users and bookings, we furthermore use data from the Statista Consumer Insigths Global survey. In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as country-related GDP, demographic data (e.g., population), tourism spending, consumer spending, internet penetration, and device penetration. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.

Forecasts:

In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, ARIMA, which allows time series forecasts, accounting for stationarity of data and enabling short-term estimates. Additionally, simple linear regression, Holt-Winters forecast, and exponential trend smoothing methods are applied. A k-means cluster analysis allows for the estimation of similar countries. The main drivers are tourism GDP per capita and respective price indices.

Additional notes:

The data is modeled using current exchange rates. The market is updated twice a year in case market dynamics change.
