We are thrilled to announce that AirAsia MOVE and the Association of Thai Inclusive Tourism (ATIT) have officially signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). This partnership aims to jointly promote and develop accessible and inclusive tourism in Thailand and across Southeast Asia.

This collaboration goes beyond a formal agreement; it reflects how the synergy between a regional travel platform and a national tourism association can drive meaningful change across the entire tourism ecosystem.

Most importantly, this partnership reinforces Thailand's image as a welcoming destination for everyone, regardless of age, ability, or mobility constraints.
