SHOW #66 - Thailand
Description
30 million is Thailand's magic number - that's how many tourists visited last year and that number just keeps growing. Now, in the middle of the country's tourism boom, it's looking for quality over quantity. This means it wants its visitors to stay longer and spend more. CNN Business Traveller explores the evolving Thai tourism industry. Richard Quest speaks with Thailand Tourism Minister Kobkarn Wattanavrangkul about this shift in strategy. Then he's off to school to learn what makes Thai hospitality special and how Bangkok's first five star hotel the Dusit Thani is getting ready for its own reboot. We'll learn how the airline industry is trying to keep up with numbers on both Nok Air and Bangkok Airways. Quest will head north to Chiang Mai to see why how this city in the mountain is charming tourists away from big cities and beaches. Plus, why sustainable tourism is vital to Thailand's future.
