📌Rome, September 9, 2024 – The Thai National Tourism Authority is thrilled to announce that August 2024 marked a historic milestone for tourism in Thailand. For the first time since the end of the COVID pandemic, tourist arrivals surpassed the pre-pandemic levels of 2019.

The recent reactivation of Thai Airways' direct flight from Milan to Bangkok certainly contributed to this success, making access easier for Italian tourists."

 

Botticelli added: “We are also excited about the upcoming ITA Airways flight from Rome to Bangkok, set to launch in November. This new route will not only strengthen connections between Italy and Thailand but also expand travel options, providing travelers with several flight choices to reach and explore the 'Land of Smiles.'”

 

👏Thailand continues to be a fascinating destination, offering a unique blend of culture, nature, and hospitality. Visitors can explore historic temples in Bangkok, relax on the paradise beaches of Phuket and Koh Samui, and immerse themselves in Pattaya’s vibrant nightlife. Moreover, Thai cuisine, renowned worldwide, offers an unforgettable culinary experience.
