According to Thailand's Minister of Tourism and Sports, Sorawong Thienthong, this campaign is aptly themed "Buy International Flight Tickets, Get Free Thai Domestic Flight Tickets." The goal is to encourage travellers to venture beyond the usual hotspots and discover Thailand's hidden gems and secondary destinations.
Here's the scoop: If you've got an international flight ticket booked, you might just snag a free round-trip domestic flight within Thailand. This incredible offer includes 20kg of checked baggage and is available on six major Thai airlines: Thai Airways, Thai AirAsia, Bangkok Airways, Nok Air, Thai Lion Air, and Thai Vietjet. It's a brilliant way to experience more of what the country has to offer!
How to Claim Your Free Thai Flights
To be eligible for these complimentary domestic flights, travellers will need to book their international airfare directly with the airlines or through online travel agencies. Minister Sorawong clarified that this promotion is specifically for foreign tourists who haven't yet finalised their flight bookings. So, if you're planning your Thai adventure, now is the perfect time to secure your flights.
This generous program is slated to run from September to November this year. The government is supporting each one-way ticket with a subsidy of 1,750 baht, or 3,500 baht for a round-trip ticket, per traveller. This substantial support demonstrates Thailand's commitment to welcoming and enriching the experience of its international guests.
