Vietnam Airlines and Vietjet Air, along with over 10 other airlines, are participating in the 30th Thailand International Travel Fair (TITF), taking place in Bangkok from January 16-19. Organized by the Thai Travel Agents Association (TTAA), the fair has attracted more than 1,000 travel agents, hotels, restaurants, booking platforms, and car rental services from countries including China, Japan, ASEAN nations, Iran, and Uzbekistan. The event aims to accelerate aviation recovery and promote the growth of the tourism industry following the COVID-19 pandemic.
At the fair, Vietnam Airlines is highlighting Vietnam’s tourism potential with its regular flights connecting Bangkok to three major Vietnamese cities: Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, and Da Nang. Ngo Tri Hung, head of Vietnam Airlines’ branch in Thailand, emphasized that TITF offers a valuable platform to enhance bilateral tourism, particularly during significant holidays like the Lunar New Year and Thailand’s Songkran Festival.
Vietnamese Ambassador to Thailand, Pham Viet Hung, noted that the involvement of Vietnamese businesses in the fair will help attract more Thai tourists to Vietnam and strengthen travel connections between the two countries. The Vietnamese Embassy in Thailand is committed to supporting Vietnamese businesses, including those in aviation and tourism, to thrive in the Thai market.
The fair, expected to welcome 225,000 visitors and feature 1,100 exhibitors, marks the beginning of the “Amazing Thailand Grand Tourism Year 2025” campaign, which aims to draw 39-40 million international tourists to the country.
