BANGKOK, DEC 13 (TNA) – The one millionth Vietnamese
tourist who wins the ‘Luckiest Vietnamese Tourist Award 2018′ organised by the Tourism
Authority of Thailand (TAT) has received a premium tour package for making the
milestone arrival.
Duong Thu Trang from Hanoi arrived at Suvarnabhumi Airport
for her first Thailand trip on Thursday and was greeted by TAT and airport
officials.
TAT Deputy Governor Chattan Kunjara Na Ayudhya said the
Vietnamese tourist won the tour package which included two air tickets, cash
card worth Bt10,000 and limousine service.
The luckiest Vietnamese tourist said she was glad to win the
prizes in her first Thailand trip and would consider other travelling trips in
Thailand.
Mr Chatthan said Thailand had increasingly been a popular
destination among Vietnamese holidaymakers; over 200 direct flights from
Vietnamese cities arrived in Thailand each week.
TAT planned to organise a tourism promotion event in Hanoi
later this month to inform potential visitors of tourist destinations in
Thailand, he said. (TNA)
