Make merry in the New Year abroad!

If you plan to spend Christmas and New Year, this year in traditional hotspots like Goa, get ready to pay a bomb! But not so, if you head to foreign shores.
A Mumbai-Goa Air Deccan flight can cost you a whopping Rs 14,974 on December 24. And if you are planning to return only after you usher in the new year, get ready to shell out Rs 13,974 for that trip, especially on the first of January.
A return journey to Trivandrum can cost you up to Rs 24,000 and you might have to shell out Rs 20,000 for a trip to Kochi.
In light of these skyrocketing packages, spending New Year's Eve abroad might not be such a bad idea. A 3 night 4 day package to Thailand will cost you just Rs 25,000. And you could cover Malaysia in Rs 28,000. You could even stay in Singapore for 3 nights and 4 days for just Rs 35,000. So, if you know what's good for your pocket, in all probability, you'll be heading to the international airport.
