Surely just a QR code scan with the new tracking App that everyone will install on their phones ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People with valid flight tickets were never affected by the curfew in Phuket. This would work the same way for arrivals. I doubt you are likely affected by the announcement anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarukhtah Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 So this is only for incoming flights to Phuket, right? We cannot fly out yet, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarukhtah Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 I mean, this morning I read in Thethaiger that the airport is confirmed to be opening tomorrow. This afternoon I get a call from the airline telling the airport is closed and my flight out is cancelled. I think they meant there are no fly-outs. But only flights-in. Anyone knows?

Tarukhtah Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 I called again to another number of Nokair. They said the government U-turned and said they won't open... weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The airport is definitely opening but it's possible they've rescheduled the flight. When is your flight? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
