Two Japanese carriers -- Japan Airlines (JAL) and Peach Aviation -- plan to increase the number of flights they operate to satisfy demand among Thai tourists, while tourism operators expect Thais to seek new travel destinations.
The number of JAL passengers travelling between Thailand and Japan recovered to 70-80% of pre-Covid levels, said Kazuyuki Hijimoto, JAL vice-president and regional manager of Thailand, Indochina and South Asia.
