A new plan aims to draw at least 500,000 tourists to Thailand. Photo by Sarot MeksophawannakulTourism operators are proposing a new tourism plan, called Safe and Sealed, to replace travel bubbles and keep Thailand from realising the worst-case revenue scenario of 675 billion baht next year, down from 3.01 trillion baht in 2019. The new plan is expected to draw at least 500,000 tourists to Thailand and generate 50 billion baht in revenue. The cost of the package would be 100,000 baht per person, higher than the average price of 50,000 baht before the pandemic. Tourism businesses want the government to help start the fund with a 100-billion-baht budget.
