Thai International Travel Fair 2015 concludes on Sunday

BANGKOK, 2 March 2015 (NNT) - The Thai International Travel Fair 2015 wrapped up over the weekend with a large number of attendees at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center.

The Thai International Travel Fair 2015 completed its 16th annual event on Sunday. The event drew large attention from the public, especially during the weekend.

Polled attendees were most interested in travelling to Japan and South Korea. These two countries were most favored for their tourist attractions and reasonable travel expenses. Polled travel agencies concurred and said that seasoned travellers tend to prefer Japan, South Korea, and China.

ASEAN countries have also enjoyed increased tourism, especially Vietnam and Myanmar. The travel companies attributed this to a downturn in the Malaysian currency and economy.

Nevertheless, the tourism sector has called for the government to promote ASEAN and domestic destinations.

...and did TOT go to the trouble (read..get off their backsides)...and vet the attending travel operators, so that as happened last time at one of these Travel fairs....a Belgian guy with his thai GF paid for a tour down south (around 36k baht)...only to find that the travel company (who had a stand at that travel fair)..were scammers...and have never been able to be contacted since.

Yes...No...?

anybody going ? I guess I haven't been to any of those frequent travel fairs for more than 3 years..... used to buy vouchers for rent cars there usually, 599 Baht a day, from AVIS, Budget and the likes, was always a great bargain

Hey I didn't even know this was going on. But glad to know it all went well.

Please but sure to let us know how well the next event goes after it has happened.
