Travellers from China are forecast to regain the top spot in terms of arrivals this year with no fewer than 5 million, while low-cost carriers from Thailand rush to secure China's routes to tap pent-up demand.
Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) governor Yuthasak Supasorn said the resumption of the Chinese market could help increase employment in the tourism sector, while TAT will organise a roadshow in three key cities in China -- Guangzhou, Chengdu and Shanghai -- leading 60 tour operators from Thailand to promote the country's tourism.
