William Ellwood Heinecke, founder and chairman of Minor International Public Company Limited (MINT), revealed that hotel bookings in Thailand for the third quarter of 2026 are expected to grow by approximately 11-14% compared to the same period last year. The growth is driven by hotels in Bangkok and key tourist destinations such as Phuket, Samui, and Chiang Rai, with a positive trend continuing into the fourth quarter of 2026, despite the high revenue base in the fourth quarter of 2025. The company is implementing a Medical Wellness model in three hotels in partnership with BDMS to attract high-end and long-stay tourists, using Thailand as a pilot market before expanding abroad. He also called on the government to improve regulations, visas, and immigration systems to facilitate medical tourism, in order to compete with Malaysia and Vietnam.
