Thailand’s continued rise as a golf tourism leader in Asia is being driven by strategic backing from the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) and a golf infrastructure that ranks among the best globally. With approximately 700,000 golf tourists annually and nearly 9 percent of all foreign visitors engaging in golf during their stay, Thailand has proven itself as a high-performing destination for leisure and sport travel alike.
For travel organizers targeting long-haul markets, Thailand’s ability to host international events such as those on the Asian Tour and LPGA circuits adds visibility and prestige to any itinerary. Combined with a deep selection of championship courses and year-round playability, Thailand offers a dependable, flexible platform for seasonal travel programs and tournament-based group trips.
To support the broader travel experience, Thailand has introduced enhanced aviation passenger protections, effective May 20, 2025. These regulations require airlines to offer structured compensation, meal service, and communication access in cases of delays and cancellations. By aligning with international standards, these policies reduce travel stress and increase confidence in choosing Thailand for multi-segment itineraries.
Thailand continues to set the pace for integrated golf and travel experiences in Asia. If you are exploring how to position Thailand in your programs with confidence and reliability, Golfasian is ready to support your planning. Contact us at info@golfasian.com.
