Travel trends for Republic Day weekend

As the Republic Day long weekend approaches, MakeMyTrip has observed some interesting travel trends across the country for this break. “The appetite for weekend travel remains strong, with the extended Republic Day weekend presenting an opportunity for travel.  There is a preference for nearby destinations, evident in the top travel choices from each metro. That said, Goa remains the favourite leisure destination within India. Internationally, the skew towards easy-visa destinations continues to gain traction. Countries with direct connectivity to multiple cities are leading demand, with Thailand at the forefront and Vietnam also performing strongly.” – Rajesh Magow, Co-founder and Group CEO, MakeMyTrip.
