Thailand remained one of the most popular outbound destinations for Chinese tourists during the May Day holiday, according to online travel company Tuniu.
According to another online travel operator, Tongcheng Travel, Bangkok had the most overseas hotel bookings among Chinese travelers during the holiday season, and the visa-free policy bolstered the outbound destination's attractiveness.
