Dear Travelers,
March is a good time to be in Thailand as the country moves into its sunny summer season. The weather offers the perfect incentive to hit the beach and enjoy the great outdoors. From the sandy beaches of Ko Samui in the south to the hill trekking excitement of Chiang Mai in the north, Thailand has something for everyone. An added bonus is that hotel room rates tend to be slightly lower this month than in the previous four months, making the country a very affordable option for that short getaway holiday.
As we celebrate our 50th Anniversary, we promise to reveal even more new products and services, making Thailand an irresistible destination. An online Thailand specialist program and joint promotion opportunities are on the way. Feel free to contact us for more details.
Sincerely,
Chattan Kunjara Na Ayudhya

Dear Travelers,
For the past couple of months, Thailand's tourism industry has been facing its greatest challenge in decades. The ongoing political situation in the country has affected tourism and travel to a large extent, with arrivals from many important markets declining as never before. This has added pressure for businesses that were just beginning to emerge from the setbacks of the global economic recession.
However, tourist traffic from South Asia dropped off only slightly and is well on the way back to a healthy level. Fortunately for Thailand, South Asian travelers understand the situation in the kingdom and have learned to avoid trouble spots to head straight for regional destinations of their choice. Places like Phuket, Pattaya, Ko Samui, and Krabi remain hugely popular with South Asian tourists. They are peaceful, fun and totally safe. This period is the traditional low season for Thai tourism, meaning that hotels and services are giving very special deals for overseas guests. This is as good a time as any to avail one's self of the magical offerings of Amazing Thailand.
Khop Khun Khrap!
Sincerely,
Chattan Kunjara Na Ayudhya
