The festive season in the final quarter is expected to bring hotel bookings in Phuket that match pre-Covid levels, but not every hospitality segment will reap benefits, according to the Phuket Hotels Association.
Bjorn Courage, president of the association, said the average occupancy rate is picking up for November and December as well as the first quarter next year, driven by individual travellers, group meetings and Mice (meetings, incentives, conventions and exhibitions).
