The 4-billion-baht "Thai Iaew Thai Plus" domestic travel subsidy has moved from 1 October 2026 to April 2027. Hotels that prepared campaigns for the October start should rethink timing. The scheme is a flat rate of up to 1,500 baht per night per right, not a 50/50 co-pay, so small hotels may gain relatively more. The Thai Hotels Association wants the registration and booking systems ready in advance. TAT is reportedly preparing a "Bus Tour Thai" programme for October to December 2026, with a 10,000-baht per bus per day subsidy (up to 5 nights), minimum 30 travellers, overnight inter-provincial trips, and an 8-million-baht budget. Details are still pending.
