Long Weekend Stays Driving Asian Travelers to Regional Destinations According to Agoda
Hoteliers advised to take advantage of additional public holidays to maximize occupancy and revenue SINGAPORE, June 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Asia's diverse and regular stream of public holidays is proving to be a boost to the Asia Pacific (APAC) travel industry as Asian tourists look to maximize their leisure time. Digital travel platform Agoda reveals that Asian travelers looking to travel long weekends are largely opting to stay in the APAC region, highlighting an opportunity for hoteliers to capture rising demand for more frequent, short stays. Agoda saw an 80% month-on-month increase in accommodation searches from Malaysia, Indonesia, and Singapore ahead of the Eid long weekend. Favored destinations were Japan, Thailand, China, South Korea and Taiwan. There was a similar trend during the Songkran long weekend in Thailand - with Hong Kong, Osaka, Shanghai and Seoul proving to be top choices. The recent long weekend in Vietnam, which encompassed Liberation Day and Labor Day, saw Bangkok, Singapore, Tokyo and Seoul being the most searched destinations. "The opportunity for hotels and airlines to secure bookings and incentivize travelers to extend their trips and add ancillary items to boost revenue over long weekends has never been greater," said Andrew Smith, Senior Vice President of Supply, Agoda. "Hotels should ensure they are using the right data to target the hottest consumers from across the Asia Pacific region and ensure that their service offerings are tailored to their regional tastes. For example, catering for visitors with large families by ensuring they are able to access larger and joined rooms for family travel." There are still multiple long weekends to come in the region in 2025 including: MALAYSIA PHILIPPINES SINGAPORE TAIWAN THAILAND • Yang di-Pertuan Agong's Birthday (Jun 2) • Awal Muharram (Maal Hijrah) (Jun 27) • Prophet Muhammad's Birthday (Sept 5) • Deepavali (Oct 20) • National Heroes Day (Aug 25) • Deepavali (Oct 20) • Mid-Autumn Festival (Oct 6) • Bridge Holiday to Queen Suthida's Birthday (Jun 2) • Queen Suthida's Birthday (Jun 3) • Khao Phansa Day (Jul 11) • King Vajiralongkorn's Birthday (Jul 28) • Bridge Holiday to Queen Mother's Birthday (Aug 11) • Queen Mother's Birthday (Aug 12) • Passing of His Majesty the Late King (Oct 13) • His Majesty the Late King's Birthday (Dec 5) By proactively offering packages that cater to long weekend stays and micro-vacations, hotels can capitalize on these trends. Some strategies include: Focus on Content Marketing: Publish blog posts or guides about "Top Things to Do in [Your City] Over the Long Weekend." Highlight local events, hidden gems, and places that are within easy reach. Use SEO best practices to ensure content ranks for relevant long weekend searches. Launch long Weekend and "maxi-break" packages: Partner with travel platforms like Agoda and loyalty platforms to promote extended stay offers such as "Stay 4 Nights, Pay for 3". This aligns with the growing trend of consumers turning public holidays into mini vacations. Push Ancillary items that help guests maximize shorter trips: Include value-adds like late check-out, complimentary breakfast, or tickets to local attractions. Design wellness and immersive local packages - With Asia's wellness tourism market projected to hit USD 156.85 billion this year, hoteliers can attract high-value guests by offering digital detox retreats, spa-and-stay bundles, and locally sourced culinary experiences that can be enjoyed over a three day stay. Agoda offers a wide range of options to suit these preferences. With over 5 million holiday properties, more than 130,000 flight routes, and over 300,000 activities, Agoda provides endless possibilities for creating unforgettable travel experiences. --- ENDS --- View original content to download multimedia: SOURCE Agoda Error in retrieving data Sign in to access your portfolio Error in retrieving data

‘Charliebird' Review - A Soul Restoring Healing Journey
Healing comes in a myriad of forms. This is even true if you look at our medical system, deeply flawed as it may be. There are people working within these structures, with specialized degrees that most of us know nothing about, such as music therapists. This does not make the role that they play any less powerful or important. When we need them, they are there for us in ways that we cannot yet imagine. And even still, healing is deeper than that and not simply structured by letters after our names. Healers need healing just as much as the rest of us, and sometimes they need it more. It is a mistake to believe that anyone, even doctors or therapists, has it all together. Libby Ewing's first feature film as a director, Charliebird, is passionate, beautiful, and yes, healing. Ewing is wonderfully self-assured behind the camera and, working with Samantha Smart's script (and co-lead performance), has a mastery of both image and pace. Cinematographer Luca del Puppo is comfortable both in the standard shots in the hospital and the more dreamy, impressionistic moments of Al's (Smart) flashbacks. The way the film intercuts between the two, thanks to editors Perry Blackshear and Ewing, leaves us wondering where things are headed, but never in a frustrating manner. This film could easily be seen as simply a two-hander between Al and her patient, Charlie (Gabriela Ochoa Perez), but it is much more than that. Charlie is 17 years old and quite ill (as she has been for many years), but more than that, she is still a normal teenage girl and everything that this entails. She is both difficult and endearing in the space of a breath, and Perez treads the line with perfect balance. Despite the impressive script, with the wrong Charlie, the film loses what it needs most, empathy and kindness. One of the many ways that they achieve this is by staying away from clichéd moments between Charlie and Al. Yes, when Al first offers her services as a music therapist, Charlie pushes her away. But there is no excessive drama, no tears, no screaming; this is simply a young woman who has seen it all from the medical world, too much of it in fact. She has been forced, as a teenager, to reckon not only with her own mortality, but with what that loss will do to those around her. And Al, to her credit, takes this teenage behavior in stride, almost immediately becoming a solitary, trustworthy figure in Charlie's life. Charlie, of course, has parents (Maria Peyramaure and Gabe Fazio), but it is desperately important that she is introduced alone, for a few reasons. She is on the cusp of adulthood and, because of her condition, she cannot help but feel exactly that, alone. No friends, no family, and certainly no doctors can possibly feel what she is feeling. Not really. They can empathize, as we all hope we can, but lived experience is different, no matter how hard they may try. Although the film begins essentially with the two leads, it becomes much more than that, and again, without needless drama. Even moments of largess and shouting are toned down through a deeply effective sound design that somehow leads us to be drawn in closer, instead of putting us at a distance. This is similar to both Al and Charlie, the desire for closeness that they both have, even if they continue to deny it or, worse, completely avoid it. Al hides behind who she is supposed to be as a veteran therapist, and Charlie has her illness as a bit of a shield. As they both wonder exactly what is going on with the other, they meander their way to an understanding of themselves through one another and their burgeoning sisterhood. The narrative is a bit of a magic trick, given that Smart purposefully withholds easy answers and truths from the audience. Frankly, I found myself grateful, as any misstep in this area would lead to audiences rolling their eyes and recalling Patch Adams (which is referenced in a line of dialogue, showing keen awareness of this minefield). Yes, kindness, laughter, and empathy are all important parts of healing. But there is a science behind everything that Al is doing as a music therapist, no matter what the medical doctors may think or say. The aforementioned sound design, from Cindy Takehara Ferruccio, also blends perfectly with the musicality of Charliebird. Obviously, this is incredibly important, not only because of Al's profession, but also because of music's particular healing power. There is a deeper level of emotion accessible through instrumentation and voice that is absent from any other connective tissue of feeling. This is another area in which the film could have gone off the rails by casting an actress with a perfect Broadway voice. Al sounds like a real person, with a good voice, both when she is having fun with Charlie and when her singing is wracked with emotion. The growth of these two women and the emotions that they feel, both separately and together, is where Charliebird truly flies. In a festival packed with powerful stories, this is the one I will remember more than any other. The journey the two go on, and not simply the ending, is powerful, beautiful, and soul-restorative. Charliebird held its World Premiere as a part of the U.S. Narrative Competition section of the 2025 Tribeca Festival. Director: Melody C. Roscher Screenwriter: Samantha Smart Rated: NR Runtime: 98m

Tiny Love Stories: ‘He Greeted Me With the Same Loving Hug'
'A Memorable Weekend Adventure' People do crazy things for love. That may explain how I ended up on a Pennsylvania back road with a lamb peeing in my Subaru. It was five days before Eid al-Adha and 11 months after our first date. We had picked up the animal from a local sheep farm and were delivering it to a nearby butcher — a memorable weekend adventure. He's a Tunisian merchant's son who likes hosting parties and cooking with farm-fresh ingredients. I'm an American farmer's daughter who knows how to get things done. Just like lamb and couscous, some things (and people) belong together. — Jessica Hibbard Embracing My Reflection Every morning, I look in the mirror and, begrudgingly, decide to like myself. Again. With my impatience, bulging stomach, receding hairline and inner critic on full blast, it's no small feat. My love story? It's with me. It's not a kiss-my-reflection kind of connection. Rather, it's a messy, clumsy journey of learning to accept the quirky, sweet, obnoxious, stubborn guy staring back. Some days it's a shrug. Others, a small smile. But I keep at it. Because one day, I just might find self-love that will stick. — Michael Sussal Peace After Pain When I arrived in the world, my older sister greeted me with a loving hug. Separated by 21 months, she taught me how to do everything from writing my name to riding a bike. The first sibling to navigate adolescence, she was often frustrated, uncomfortable and restless. I admired her but wanted to be nothing like her. I always knew she held a private pain. At 45, my sibling courageously transitioned. I now have an older brother who is finally happy, whole and content. And when I visited him recently in Portugal, he greeted me with the same loving hug. — Linda Bardere The Right Fit We made plans to meet at a mega furniture store in Omaha to shop for a new bed. I arrived first, wandering the aisles, testing mattresses. 'Can I help you find something?' the saleswoman asked just as I looked up and saw my fiancé descending the escalator. Her eyes followed mine. 'Oh, I can see you've already found it,' she said. Yes. At the age of 55, I certainly had. — Eileen Davis See more Tiny Love Stories at Submit yours at Want more from Modern Love?
