The total cost per trip was about 70,000 baht (US$2,125) which took in account accommodation, swab tests, food and drinks, transportation, airfares, and other travel expenses. The average stay per guest was 11 nights with spending at around 5,500 baht (US$167) per person. This generated 534.31 million baht (US$16.22 billion) in revenue. The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) has a revenue target of 850 billion baht (US$25.8 billion), 300 billion (US$9.1 billion) of which will come from 3 million international visitors and the remaining 550 billion (US$16.7 billion) from domestic travel.
The next stage is to reopen the tourist islands of Krabi province – Koh Phi Phi, Koh Ngai and Railay, as well as the tourist islands of Phang Nga province – Khao Lak, Koh Yao Noi, and Koh Yao Yai. These tourist islands are scheduled to reopen on August 1, 2021. At that time, the 7+7 plan will be implemented. This will required tourists to spend 7 days under the Phuket Sandbox model, down from the initial 14-day period, and to take a reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test twice. They can then travel to Koh Samui, Koh Phangan, and Koh Tao in Surat Thani province, as well as Ko Phi Phi, Ko Ngai and Railay of Krabi, and Khao Lak, Ko Yao Noi, and Ko Yao Yai of Phang Nga, via sealed routes, or using an island-hopping model that starts on August 8, 2021.
What tourists are most satisfied on their trip, according to a tourist satisfaction assessment, is the shuttle service with the Safety and Health Administration (SHA) Plus certification at Phuket International Airport as well as the overall services offered at Phuket International Airport.
The reopening and the Phuket Sandbox model are proving to be quite successful and will help Тајланд prepare for more arrivals by the end of the year.
