Bangkok hotel rates, Singapore flight bookings rise around BTS shows
BTS has three sold-out Bangkok performances in December and four shows scheduled in Singapore, where international flight bookings are up 62% year-on-year for the concert period.
Travel data show higher Bangkok hotel prices and more international flight reservations to Singapore around BTS’s December concerts. PriceChrono lists Bangkok room rates above pre-concert levels, while Amadeus reports a 62% year-on-year increase in Singapore-bound bookings for arrivals from Dec. 16 to 23.
For seven-night visits to Bangkok beginning Nov. 28, PriceChrono gives a median nightly price of €73 (US$82), rising to €77 for stays beginning Dec. 5. Those figures are about 14% and 20% above the €64 nightly median for stays beginning Nov. 21. The elevated prices also cover evenings without concerts.
Live Nation Tero said tickets have sold out for all three Rajamangala National Stadium performances, scheduled for Dec. 3, 5 and 6. Airbnb reported that searches for Bangkok stays coinciding with the December shows increased nearly 590% year-on-year.
In Singapore, the group is scheduled to perform at the National Stadium on Dec. 17, 19, 20 and 22, according to the Singapore Tourism Board. Amadeus said flight bookings from the Philippines grew more than sevenfold, moving it from ninth place to second among origin markets for the period.
CNA cited Trip.com Singapore general manager Edmund Ong as saying searches jumped after the tour was announced, with hotel reservations for Dec. 16–22 subsequently increasing sharply. Trip.com said the increases in searches and hotel bookings exceeded those seen for earlier Taylor Swift and Blackpink concerts.
