Tours to Thailand, which were suspended recently because of the military coup, re-opened to tourists yesterday, today's Youth Post reported.
The military coup in Thailand caused nearly half of the tourists to cancel their tours or change them to another destination. One package tour to Thailand has been canceled, while another will set off as planned, said a spokesman with the outbound department of Shanghai China Travel International. Shanghai Spring International Travel Service recommended that tourists cancel or delay their trips.
After the military coup was appeased, travelers, though not many, started to book the tours again. Travelers are still in fear that another possible threat may happen again.
As Thailand accepts visa on arrival, travel agencies will accept bookings one or two days before departure.
