European arrivals via Suvarnabhumi Airport rose year-on-year to 2.1 million

Thursday, November 1st, 2007

The number of European visitors to Thailand is likely to grow by 20-25% in the coming high season and could compensate for falling arrivals from East Asia, said the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT).

Based on the nine-month figure, arrivals from Europe via Suvarnabhumi Airport rose about 13% year-on-year to 2.1 million. Tourists from Scandinavia and Eastern Europe showed the highest growth, helping to draw total arrivals from the region to 30% of the projected 14.8 million foreign tourists this year.

Political factors and a poor Thai economy caused East Asian tourism to drop, with only 3.5 million Japanese visitors in the first nine months, compared with 3.81 million the same period of 2006.




Airports of Thailand to cancel Suvarnabhumi Airport hotel contract

Tuesday, May 22nd, 2007

The management contract for the airport hotel at Suvarnabhumi will be cancelled because the contractor was unqualified to win it in the first place, an informed source said. The board of the Suvarnabhumi airport hotel, headed by Airports of Thailand chairman General Saprang Kalayanamitr, decided yesterday to void the contract of Universal Hospitality Joint Venture, which runs the Novotel Suvarnabhumi Airport hotel.

Airports of Thailand board found that the bidding terms for the management rights of the hotel prohibited a joint venture from vying for the contract because a joint venture is not a juristic entity under the Civil Code and this could pose legal problems.
