Campaign reveals demand for sustainable travel

Following the launch of "Grow Green Stay", a one-of-a-kind clay house created by Booking.com in early September, an exclusive two-night sustainable staycation was offered to only two pairs of lucky travellers who successfully booked the stay through Booking.com. Thai consumers have shown intense interest in sustainable-related activity, resulting in this one-of-a-kind stay being fully booked in just 10 minutes.

The success of this campaign emphasises the intention and rising demand of Thais for sustainable travel, which is consistent with recent research commissioned by Booking.com, as 94% of Thai travellers confirmed that sustainable travel is important to them, and 75% cited that recent news about climate change has influenced them to make more sustainable travel choices.

Thais (90%) consider sustainable stays as their preference whether they are looking for one or not, and nearly half of Thai travellers (44%) choose it to lessen their environmental impact, evidenced from insights that special guests of Grow Green Stay shared with Booking.com.
