There’s good news for tourists to Thailand from Visakhapatnam. Thailand’s Government has decided to extend the visa-on-arrival fee waiver until 31 October 2019. The waiver was introduced after noticing a dip in the incoming tourists from India, China, and Sri Lanka. Reportedly, this fee exemption has been made applicable to India and 20 other countries.
Last year, Thailand run airlines, Air Asia had introduced low fare flights, four days a week, from Vizag to Bangkok. They now plan to increase tourists from Visakhapatnam, Vizianagaram, Kakinada and Rajamahendravaram.
