She said that originally there were three packages known as "Happiness-sharing trips", "Let's travel", and "Moral Support" -- proposed by the Tourism and Sports Ministry. The "Happiness-sharing trips'' package worth 2 billion baht is to subsidise domestic flight fares, inter-provincial bus fares and car rental fees for a total of 2 million people. The government will subsidise 2 million air tickets, with the subsidy limited to 2,000 baht per person. The "Let's travel" package worth 18 billion baht will fund subsidies for accommodation, food and other services provided at tourist destinations. Gen Prayut also floated an idea to promote domestic tourism on weekdays to ease overcrowding on Saturdays and Sundays.
