Shopping-related tourism activity is particularly high during the yearly campaigns organized by the Shopping Malaysia Secretariat, including the 1Malaysia GP Sale (from March 15 to April 6), the 1Malaysia Mega Sale Carnival (from June 28 to September 1), and the 1Malaysia Year-End Sale (from November 15 to January 4).

Preference for air travel increased, with shares in total outbound departures increasing from 36.0% in 2009 to 38.4% in 2013. Expanding operations of low-cost carriers (LCCs) such as AirAsia and Lion Air can be partially attributed for this rising preference. - The airline market in Malaysia performed well during the review period, in terms of both passenger traffic and revenue. Increased demand for low-cost travel is the major driving force behind the growth of the airlines market. Malaysia has 62 airports, with eight catering to international tourists. Passenger traffic increased at a review-period CAGR of 8.09%, as passengers carried by domestic and international airlines grew from 52.1 million in 2009 to 71.1 million in 2013. - The number of hotel establishments in Malaysia is expected to increase from 2,807 in 2013 to 3,212 in 2018, at a forecast-period CAGR of 2.73%. This is due to several hotels that are in the pipeline, such as Starwood's six properties and the CHM group's two properties, in anticipation of increase in demand for accommodation. Room occupancy rate is expected to reach 65.9% by 2018. Upscale hotels will continue to have the highest occupancy rate of 70.3%, followed by midscale hotels with 69.2% in 2018. - Malaysia's car rental market value rose at a review-period CAGR of 7.48%, from MYR2.4 billion (US$676.3 billion) in 2009 to MYR3.2 billion (US$1.0 billion) in 2013.

The disappearance of Flight MH370 impacted business during March and April 2014, although the market will recover and continue to record growth during the year. This growth will be driven by increases in leisure and business travel, the promotion of VMY2014 in major source countries, and the development of e-commerce.
