webfact Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 TAT’s ambitious ‘฿100 Travel Around’ scheme opens on Monday By THE NATION The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) will open on Monday (November 11) the first of four days of registration for its campaign '฿100 Travel Around' aimed at boosting domestic tourism. According to TAT’s website, the project aims to promote domestic tourism by providing Bt100 one-price packages for domestic tours and rooms. The registration will open on four “catchy dates” namely 11-11 (November 11), 11-12 (November 12), 12-11 (December 11) and 12-12 (December 12). Each registration day, from 6am to midnight, will accept only 10,000 participants. The package coupons will be given on a first come, first served basis. To be eligible for ‘฿100 Travel Around’, participants must be Thai nationals, be at least 18 years of age on the registration date, and must reserve a domestic destination other than the hometown shown on their ID card. One person can make one reservation only via www.100เดียวเที่ยวทั่วไทย.com website. Hundreds of three-to-five star hotels have registered with the campaign to provide Bt100 packages, including THANN Wellness Destination, Onsen at Moncham, Avista Hideaway Phuket Patong – Mgallery, Renaissance Pattaya Resort & Spa, The Tubkaak Krabi Boutique Resort, Sri Panwa Phuket, The Naka Phuket, Celes Beachfront Resort - Koh Samui, Baba Beach Club Phuket Luxury Pool Villa Hotel by Sri Panwa and Maraya Hotel & Resort.

Peterw42 Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 This is a better idea than the Chin shop chai thing where most of the money ended up being spent at Macro/BigC in the province next door. Apparently you cant do this one if you did Chin shop Chai already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its 100 Baht for a package...would assume that covers travel and hotel...Its an incentive that will create more spending. Governments all over the world have different ways of creating domestic spending, TAT for once should be given a thumbs up on this idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isaan sailor Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Can’t knock it, if it works. Meanwhile, the hot money inflows at BoT keep piling up. And the Baht keeps inching up. So this TAT plan may be a harbinger of times ahead—-when the stratospheric Baht eliminates all western tourists and expats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't get it at all i have seen the site and the conditions you need to do a reservation on one of the luxury hotels (Usualy 3\5000 bahts for one night) and then you can hope to get a 100 bahts discount back to you later. I don't know why but i have the feeling it's not going to be a big popular success Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you really think people will rush out and book a hotel who already don't already intend to book a hotel and even if you do is it worth the effort for 100baht? How far are these idiots out of touch: 100baht as one person stated its for 3,000baht + hotels. For something like this to work they would need to add one or two zeros and not make it a gamble if your going to get it. 100baht are they made? This whole think stinks of s stupidity, desperation or most likely there is a lot of money to skim.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
