Thailand captivates Indian travelers at SATTE 2025, showcasing vibrant culture, luxury escapes, and exclusive travel deals to strengthen tourism ties with India.
Thailand Elevates Its Tourism Appeal at SATTE 2025 to Entice Indian Travelers
Thailand is making a grand statement at SATTE 2025, South Asia’s largest travel and tourism exhibition, to solidify its position as a top destination for Indian tourists. With its world-famous hospitality, cultural heritage, and curated travel experiences, the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) is leveraging this mega-event, held from February 19-21 at Yashobhoomi – India International Convention and Expo Centre, to expand its influence in the Indian travel market.
Boasting a dominant presence at SATTE 2025, Thailand has unveiled an expansive 300-square-metre pavilion, segmented into three dynamic zones: an information hub, a business networking arena, and an immersive cultural demonstration section where visitors can experience traditional Thai artistry. The Thailand Stand is set to be a major networking hub, with over 50 Thai tourism businesses engaging in B2B discussions to foster new partnerships and expand travel collaborations.
India: A Booming Market for Thailand’s Tourism Growth
India continues to be one of Thailand’s fastest-growing inbound tourism markets, with 2.13 million Indian visitors recorded in 2024, reflecting an impressive 30.74% increase from the previous year. This surge is largely driven by Thailand’s visa exemption policy, allowing Indian travelers to stay visa-free for up to 60 days, and a robust flight network offering 2.93 million air seats in 2024, nearing pre-pandemic levels.
Aiming to surpass 2.3 million Indian arrivals in 2025, TAT is rolling out targeted strategies catering to distinct traveler segments, including luxury holidaymakers, family vacationers, golf tourism enthusiasts, and wedding tourism groups.
Exclusive Campaigns Tailored for Indian Travelers
To further amplify Thailand’s appeal, TAT has launched two specialized campaigns:
- ‘Living it Up in Thailand’ – Crafted for Indian millennials and young travelers, this campaign highlights Thailand’s vibrant nightlife, adventure activities, and world-renowned cuisine, in partnership with travel platforms such as Clear Trip and Akbar Holidays.
- ‘Celebrations with Care and Inner Shine’ – A dedicated initiative targeting India’s booming wedding and anniversary travel sector, designed to attract couples and celebration groups with exclusive promotions, luxury venues, and familiarization trips for event planners.
