spidermike007 Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Upward trajectory from what? Last year, the year before, the middle of covid, the period when the country was shut down? What exactly are we referring to here, and is this a reasonable comparison? Traditionally most areas have been sold out for Christmas and New Year's week nationwide, so is this really a significant factor to take into account? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al BB Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Im calling this a load of Poo Poo ! We stayed in Bankrut and our Resort was 50% Occupied when we arrived on the 29th. NEVER in our 6 day stay did it exceed 50% and, I might add, that there were ony 4 (Farang) couples, the rest were locals. These local only stayed one night as well. Some resorts closed early due to low/no Bookings, as for Restaurants etc must have been dire for them! We were there in June at a friends funeral and it seemed busier then! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
