From The Nation

The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) aims to increase the number of flights in a bid to boost tourism during the high season.

"The flight load capacity must reach 90 per cent during the high season this year," TAT Governor Yuthasak Supasorn said on Friday. The high season in Thailand is from November to March.

He added that Chinese authorities have requested information from the Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand to boost the number of flights to 2019 levels, before the Covid-19 pandemic.

Yuthasak said the TAT aims to attract high-spending tourists to Thailand to help achieve the goal of generating 2.38 trillion baht from 25 million foreign travellers.

"TAT will propose extension of visa on arrival from the current 30 days to enable tourists to stay in Thailand until the end of this year," he said.

WOW - that is really generous.  From today until the end of this year, 31-Dec-2023, that would be 353 days or 11 months and 19 days.  so, to go from 30 days to 353 days is INCREDIBLE!!

nd will help many to avoid visa run

and meet the objective to keep more of the tourist money in the Thai economy.

Lately, the Thai baht has strengthened to around 33 baht to 1 USD - when back in October it was 38 baht for 1 USD.

Let us see how high the Thai baht will go during this run ???
