1 MEDIA RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE GTA debuts Strategic Partnership Program in Thailand across 6 different locations Total 64 premium hotels will participate in the program Supported by Tourism Authority of Thailand, the key focus is on luxury experiences in Thailand 1 st Strategic Partnership Program (SPP) launch in 2016 (after Singapore, Hong Kong & Dubai in 2015) 6 destinations: Bangkok, Chiang Rai, Hua Hin, Koh Samui, Pattaya and Phuket 23 March 2016, Bangkok Kuoni s Global Travel Distribution arm, GTA announced Thailand as its first new Strategic Partnership Program (SPP) destination for Together with 64 premium hotels across six locations in Thailand Bangkok, Phuket, Koh Samui, Chiang Rai, Hua Hin and Pattaya, GTA will take the lead to promote the many luxury experiences available in Amazing Thailand; in line with Tourism Authority of Thailand s new focus for SPP Thailand stands out uniquely as: - The first SPP that promotes 6 different locations in one country. - 75% are 5-star hotels and the rest are 4-star hotels. - It is strongly supported by Tourism Authority of Thailand to promote Thailand as a luxury leisure destination - 10x g shop reward points for travel agencies and wholesalers to kick start and promote partner hotels. Thailand is a key destination in Asia for GTA, constantly ranked among the top 3 in the last 3 years. Last year, GTA achieved an outstanding room-nights growth of +32% Year-on- Year and over +47% Year-on-Year in Sales Revenue to destination Thailand. With the introduction of this Strategic Partnership Program, GTA expects to deliver a higher Average Daily Rate (ADR) for destination Thailand and will focus on delivering longer stays from upscale travellers to the key locations in Thailand. Launching SPP Thailand at The House of Sathorn in Bangkok earlier today, GTA s Regional Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa, Daryl Lee says: Thailand is a very important destination for GTA. We have been bringing a lot of tourists to Thailand as it is really popular with independent travellers. We see an excellent opportunity now to partner with Tourism Authority of Thailand and our key hotel partners to promote luxury experiences to these leisure travellers. We understand that holidaymakers can be motivated to choose a premium room or upgrade their hotel stay if there is an attractive deal or to book a unique holiday experience that only Amazing Thailand can offer. With this program, we hope to highlight some of the most unique luxury experiences in Thailand and introduce these new products to our vast network of travel agents worldwide. - Continue -

We are very proud of GTA for taking the lead to bring together 64 premium hotels and promote the destination. Also, more importantly is having Tourism Authority of Thailand support the program as all our objectives are greatly aligned, said Ms. Samornpun Somnam, Executive Director of Keemala at the launch event. Thailand drew 29.9 million international visitors in 2015, an increase of more than 20 per cent compared with Mr. Lars Kerfin, General Manager of Renaissance Bangkok Ratchaprasong Hotel said, We ve heard positive feedback of this Strategic Partnership Program from our counterpart in Singapore as the program has helped drive strong incremental revenue for the participating hotels. More valuable for us is the program opens up mystery markets for the hotels which they would previously find it challenging to access effectively. We are very excited to be part of the program in Thailand. Please refer to page 3 of this media release for full SPP hotels listing. Page 2
