Thailand has always had a knack for making your holiday budget stretch further. One minute you’re navigating Bangkok’s neon-lit streets, the next you’re sipping something cold on a beach in Phuket, wondering why you didn’t book an extra week.
Now, Emirates Holidays is making the Land of Smiles even more appealing with the launch of its Thailand Pass, offering travellers exclusive savings of up to 40% across shopping, dining and leisure experiences.
Shop, Dine and Explore for Less
The Thailand Pass isn’t simply another discount voucher destined to disappear into your suitcase. It’s a collection of travel perks designed to make exploring Thailand that little bit more rewarding.
Travellers can access exclusive shopping and dining offers across 14 participating malls in Bangkok, Phuket, Koh Samui, Pattaya, Krabi and Chiang Mai.
For those planning a Bangkok shopping expedition, the pass includes complimentary shuttle transfers between centralwOrld and Central Village Bangkok, along with VIP lounge access at both locations.
Simply present your Emirates Holidays vouchers and a passport copy at participating venues to collect your Welcome Package.
Double the Fun, Without Double the Spend
Beyond retail therapy, the Thailand Pass offers Buy One, Get One Free deals on selected attractions and experiences.
Families travelling with children can enjoy savings at attractions including Aquaria Phuket, Playsquare Laser Tag, Playmondo and OTO Playpark.
There are also offers at familiar favourites such as Swensen’s and Auntie Anne’s, while wellness enthusiasts can enjoy an additional 5% discount on Karmakamet products.
It’s the kind of added value that makes a family holiday feel a little less financially intimidating.
Getting There from South Africa
With 56 weekly Emirates flights connecting Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban to Dubai, South African travellers have convenient onward connections to Bangkok and Phuket.
Emirates operates 49 weekly flights to Thailand, with its Airbus A350 recently introduced on Phuket services and upgraded aircraft featuring Premium Economy cabins serving Bangkok.
The new pass arrives as Emirates Holidays reports a 10% year-on-year increase in Thailand bookings, suggesting the destination’s popularity shows little sign of slowing.
The Thailand Pass is available with qualifying Emirates Holidays packages booked until 31 March 2027.
Travellers can secure their holiday with a deposit and benefit from flexible cancellation arrangements, subject to booking conditions.
South African customers can book through participating travel agencies.
Whether you’re chasing Bangkok’s street food, Phuket’s beaches or Chiang Mai’s mountain escapes, Thailand has always delivered exceptional holiday experiences.
Now there’s a little more reason to say yes.
