Hong Kong and Thailand move towards business travel

Hong Kong/Thailand, 30th June: Thailand plans to reopen to business travellers from five key markets: Mainland China, Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea and Singapore. The numbers, at least at the start, are expected to be strictly limited.

Officials from both Hong Kong and Thailand have reportedly started negotiations aimed at creating a so-called “travel bubble” between the two destinations. Media reports suggest that a bilateral agreement between Thailand and Hong Kong is expected to be signed in July – and that is will perhaps cover tourism as well as business travel.
