philba Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Take the test less than 72 hours before your initial flight from Bangkok. medconsultasia in Thonglor do same day testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pixelaoffy Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 And what other documentation is needed? i understood need a valid covid test paper and a fir to fly certificate , How to get that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NanLaew Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 (edited) The OP should plan on getting tested on 6th April as results will be ready within 24-hours on 7th April, the day of flying. The late departure is handy. Even if the OP opts to test on 5th, get results on 6th and fly on 7th, he will still be in BHX early 8th before the 72-hours are up. The hospital will issue the Covid-free certificate when collecting the test results. They may also issue the fit-to-fly certificate for additional cost as it is not specific to Covid. This is based on BH Udon Thani's procedures. Best to ask at your test facility. YMMV Edited March 11, 2021 by NanLaew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point. We must trust that the airport check-in staff are aware of this. For the additional 500 baht that BH in Udon charges, it allows for contingencies such as dim airline staff or redirected flights, unscheduled stopovers, etc.. I'm a belt and braces kinda guy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
