Phuket FantaSea bounces back

PHUKET: Phuket FantaSea will be open six days a week from October 1. The “ultimate nighttime cultural theme park” attracted 3,000 to 6,000 visitors daily before last year’s tsunami, but opened only intermittently in the following months. In July it shut its doors two days a week in order to save costs.

Sirikul Amaramorn, FantaSea’s Public Relations Director, told the Gazette today that a significant drop in the number of tourists had forced FantaSea to reduce its opening hours, but, by doing so, it had managed to retain its 1,100 employees.
