The COVID-19 pandemic has placed the tourism and hospitality industry under unprecedented pressure. The extremely contagious novel coronavirus continues to negatively affect the industry, raising serious concerns about its current and potential threat. The pandemic threatens millions of jobs globally, and the tourism and hospitality industry is not excluded as they continuously strive to survive.
Covid-19 has changed the landscape of Hatyai Tourism. The outlook for the tourism market in Hat Yai remains uncertain, as visitor numbers are still low compared to the pre-pandemic days. The checkpoint was closed for more than two years due to the pandemic before reopening in April. Songkhla is a popular tourist destination in southern Thailand and a gateway to Malaysia and Singapore. The Sadao border crossing has seen an increase in travelers from Malaysia, Indonesia, and Singapore since Jul 1, after the Thai government scrapped the pre-arrival registration system Thailand Pass and the requirement for travel insurance coverage worth US$10,000.
Data from the Sadao Immigration Office showed 3,862 arrivals on Jul 1 alone, compared to 1,338 arrivals on the same day last month.
