Bangkok Airways and the Thailand Convention & Exhibition Bureau (TCEB) have teamed up for the second year running for the Fly and Meet Double Bonus campaign to attract business events travellers from Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and Vietnam (CLMV).
The 2019 Fly and Meet Double Bonus – Redefined campaign benefits include financial support, fast-track immigration service at Suvarnabhumi airport, cultural performances, meet-and-greet services, one free ticket for every 30 tickets purchased, pre-assigned group seating, priority boarding and extra baggage allowances.
To qualify, each group must comprise at least 30 persons, fly to Thailand on Bangkok Airways, stay for at least two nights, or hold an event at a venue recognised by the Thailand MICE Venue Standard or a registered hotel.
Applications are open now until August 31, 2019, with travel to be completed by September 30, 2019.
Nooch Homrossukhon, director of meetings and incentives department, TCEB, said that the number of corporate travellers from CLMV countries grew 206 per cent in 2018. She added that the four countries, with their dynamic markets and growing economies, are rated among the fastest-growing business events markets for Thailand.
Earlier in January, TCEB and Thai Airways International unveiled their first joint campaign for the year, ASEAN MaxiMICE, targeted at business events travellers from Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Singapore.
