Tourism Authority of Thailand

Bringing the heart of Thailand to people at home

.

Some industries suffered more than others as a result of Covid-19, but the Travel and Tourism sector has been one of the worst hit. With airlines grounded, resorts closed, and various restrictions in place, job losses and bankruptcy have been an inevitable result. But while people aren’t able to travel, it doesn’t mean that there isn’t demand. When the first UK lockdown ended, the Evening Standard reported that at least one staycation was being booked every 11 seconds. So, how can the Travel & Tourism industry capitalise on this demand while they cannot provide their services?

The challenge

The Tourism Authority of Thailand decided that one way they would counter Covid-19 was to ensure they remained front of mind for people during lockdown. That way, when people were eventually allowed to travel again and making that all important holiday destination choice, they would immediately think of Thailand–that’s where we came in.

While people couldn’t travel to Thailand, we helped to bring Thailand to them.

The solution

Launching a social campaign called ‘Stay Home Thai Style’, we delivered a number of Thai style activities for people to enjoy in the comfort and safety of their own homes.
