Welcome to Thailand where fun is now illegal and having a beer at a restaurant will get you arrested and deported.  Masks and social distancing mandatory as are mandatory tracking applications and 24/7 monitoring. 
All enjoyable activities closed indefinitely and don't dare walk on a beach (fine, jail, criminal record).  Best to plan to self-quarantine for the first 14 days of your two week vacation. 
Welcome to The Amazing New Normal Thailand.

The catch is ‘if governments ease their lockdowns enough for travel to resume’....... If that happens, Finnair won’t be the only one resuming flights.

Travel sites are advertising Europe to Bangkok July under €500.

Why it doesn't just admit it's a long haul budget airline that sells tickets at full price gets me. Pay for a drink, only serves a so called meal because required by IATA regs on length of flight, most disgusting mush I have ever been served on a plane and served by some of the most "like I give a s**t" cabin crew you will ever encounter. Would rather walk....

oh yes, finn air are awful, flew with them once because they were cheap. sure were; old plane, no personal entertainment screens, uncomfortable seat, bad food... never again. what puzzles me is they are not always a cheap option.
