International travel generally follows seasonal trends, with June to August seeing surges for European destinations. Peak travel seasons, such as summer vacations and winter holidays, remain dominant due to school breaks, favourable weather, and traditional celebrations. High costs, crowded destinations, and limited availability of accommodations and flights make travel during peak seasons challenging, but completing digital travel authorisation requirements can also sometimes cause trouble.

Holiday periods may see some delays in Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) and e-visa clearances. Delays are generally caused by holiday travellers flooding online portals simultaneously, creating backlogs. Many processing offices also shift from automated approvals to limited weekday reviews during public holidays. A better practice to deal with such situations is to apply at least 2 to 4 weeks before departure to avoid cancellation risks. Applicants should also double-check passport numbers, travel dates, and scanned photo specifications to reduce the risk of rejections.
