The tourist flow from Ukraine to Thailand will grow by 15% in 2018 from 2017, to 70,000 people, the Tourism Authority of Thailand predicts.
According to the agency, 60,800 Ukrainian tourists visited Thailand in 2017, which allowed Ukraine to take the second place after Poland in Central and Eastern Europe in terms of the number of trips to Thailand.
At the same time, Ukrainians are the leaders in the world for the duration of their trips to Thailand: in 2017, the average duration of one trip Ukrainians spent in that country was almost 22 days.
In 2017, Thailand was visited by more than 35 million tourists from all over the world, which brought this country $57.5 million. Thus, Thailand took the 4th place in the world in terms of revenue from tourism (after the United States, Spain and France).
The Ukrainian office of the Tourism Authority of Thailand has been operating since February 2017.
