BANGKOK – The Pacific Asia Travel Association (PATA) is coordinating a multifaceted marketing campaign to increase US consumer awareness of travel opportunities to Pacific Asia.

Scheduled for September/October, the "See You in Pacific Asia" campaign aims to increase travel from the US to the PATA region by six percent annually. The campaign theme represents a "welcome" to tourists who may not have chosen to travel to the Pacific Asia region in the past.

Initially, the key elements – advertising, direct mail, radio promotions, online marketing and a retail agent tie-in – will target higher-income consumers in markets such as New York, Chicago, San Francisco and Los Angeles.
