Yogyakarta, Bandung and Bali remain the three most popular local destinations in the country for Christmas and New Year holidays, according to a recent report by online ticket-booking site Traveloka.
The report, based on a study involving 5 million Traveloka mobile app users between November and December, also mentioned Kuala Lumpur, Singapore and Bangkok as popular international destinations, with 50 percent of Indonesian travelers choosing to booked accommodation more than eight days prior to their holiday.
"The data reveals the enthusiasm of Indonesian travelers in welcoming Christmas and New Year's holidays by preparing their accommodation as early as possible," said Traveloka CEO Ferry Unardi in a press release on Tuesday.
In general, the majority of local tourists tended to book hotel stays of only one or two nights. Only 10 percent of Traveloka mobile users booked more than three nights at a hotel. The report concluded that it was possible that they either preferred short holidays or traveled to many destinations and stayed for a night or two in each destination during the holiday season.
