There are half dozen or more airlines flying scheduled flights into Bangkok that have never stopped - they fly in without passengers but fly out with paying customers. The repatriation flights are bringing 3-400 per day lately and even that appears to be just a small dent in the queues trying to return. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many other countries to live in that are not anti westerner in every way, shape and form. By the way do you qualify for subsidized holidays by thai government? Of course not, you are a westerner.

tomacht8 Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 The 14-day quarantine period is nonsense. The results of an RT-PCR test take a maximum of 48 hours. If the test result is negative, why then an unnecessarily long quarantine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as that's per person, it's 1200 EUR for parents with 2 kids, for instance. Well, probably still cheaper than 14 days quarantine... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are shooting themselves in the foot with all the greed and overcharging. Many places cheaper and more welcoming that Thailand now. We were in Myanmar last year and were pleasantly surprised by how nice it was. Cheap and great service everywhere we went. Add to that the fact that the Thai authorities seem to want all of us Farangs out and welcome only Chinese... Phuket has always been that way and people have been saying that for as long as I can remember, and I have been here nigh on thirty years now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post spidermike007 Posted May 31, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 31, 2020 Nice. Conceptually, it is a good idea. And only $17,000 for a 14 day stay, I would estimate. Sweet deal, if you have huge money. The reality is, that Thailand attracts very few of these really big fish these days. Well before Covid, their numbers were fast declining, for a dozen good reasons. And who is going to willingly subject themselves to a 14 day prison sentence, no matter how comfortable? My guess is that most people in that position financially, will just wait this thing out elsewhere. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
