Key reading
Luxury Yachting Thailand · Phuket / Koh Samui · AI Overview · August 24–30, 2026
YachtCharterFleet holds the strongest AI opening share on this market at 15.07% across the 7-run window from August 24–30, 2026, but the gap to facebook.com at 12.56% is only 2.51 percentage points — not wide enough to signal structural control over the observed AI opening-control surface. The Luxury Yachting Thailand panel, as observed across this window, is distributed: ten names share the AI opening surface without any one concentrating authority on this observed rail. AI Overview opening-control evidence was available on 6 of 7 runs in the comparable window; one run on August 27, 2026 returned no AI Overview source competitors. None of the 10 actors on the panel opened AI answers in all 7 comparable runs, reinforcing the contested character of this surface across the period.

Why this reading matters
Luxury Yachting Thailand · Phuket / Koh Samui · AI Overview · August 24–30, 2026
YachtCharterFleet holds the rank-1 AI opening share on this surface at 15.07%, yet it opened AI answers on only 5 of 7 comparable runs. The two actors with the highest presence frequency — Blue Voyage Thailand and youtube.com, each opening AI answers on 6 of 7 comparable runs — sit at rank 4 and rank 7 respectively.

FAQ
- What does AI opening share measure?
- AI opening share captures which source AI Overviews reach for first when answering a query — the primacy slot at the opening of the AI-generated answer. It does not measure general citation share, and it does not measure organic search ranking.
- How was this panel aggregated?
- The panel ranks the top 10 actors by cumulative AI answer openings observed across 7 comparable scheduled runs in the window from August 24–30, 2026. Each actor's share is its total openings divided by one single period-wide denominator. AI Overview opening-control evidence was available on 6 of 7 runs; one run on August 27, 2026 returned no AI Overview source competitors.
- Does this card establish a longer-term trend?
- No. This panel is based on 7 observation runs — enough to read the current shape of the surface, but this observation does not establish a longer-term trend. AI Overview opening behavior is volatile across queries, models, and dates; future windows may produce a different panel shape.
