ANEX TOUR OFFERED PACKAGE TOURS TO THAILAND TO RESIDENTS OF SIX RUSSIAN REGIONS
The tour operator ANEX Tour, which had a strong position in Thailand before the pandemic and sent tourists to the resorts of the kingdom from more than 15 Russian regions, told Vestnik ATOR on August 8 about expanding its offers for Thailand.
The decision is especially relevant on the eve of the winter season, against the backdrop of the upcoming resumption of direct flights and loyal conditions for entering the kingdom.
The tour operator has formed, calculated and put into the booking system package tours to Thailand from Moscow, Yekaterinburg, St. Petersburg, Novosibirsk, Kazan and Krasnoyarsk. Moreover, the range of Thai resorts available for recreation has been expanded, ANEX Tour reported.
The decision to make holidays in Thailand accessible to tourists from the regions in ANEX Tour was explained by the traditionally high demand for holidays in the kingdom not only from Moscow and St. Petersburg, but also from tourists from the Urals, Siberian and Far Eastern federal districts of Russia (there are no flights from the Far East yet , but in the plans).
“The restrictions imposed by Thailand in connection with the pandemic have put organized tourism on a forced pause. But as soon as the possibility of traveling to Thailand, even with an unusual connecting flight, appeared, demand immediately began to grow. During the summer months, bookings of only hotels and a package with connecting flights were in equal shares, but the average duration of arrivals increased. Previously, it was within 9-11 nights, now it is already 14-17 nights. At first we offered GDS tours only from Moscow. And in early August, GDS tours from five more regions of Russia were calculated,” the press service of ANEX Tour said.
In the search for tours, package options with connecting flights, as well as tours with direct flights, are already available Aeroflot Airlines from Moscow to Phuket.
From regional cities, a connecting flight is carried out, including with a connection in Moscow. In addition to tours on regular flights, the site offers ground services in Pattaya, Phuket, Bangkok and Koh Samui.
“Group transfers are not included in packages on regular flights, the cost of an individual transfer must be requested under a specific application, since the price range is different and depends on the accommodation facility,” ANEX Tour clarified.
