  1. Previously a tourist visa (thats what they gave me even though i applied for a 60 day visa to visit thai wife)

    had written on it use within 3 months of issue.

    Now you dont  get a physical visa sticker in your passport just a letter e mailed to you ?Is this correct?

    I had to change my flight due to missing test and go 1 day pass.

     
    Is the visa still valid even though

    i changed my flight date 1 month later to 15 February .

    my visa application still shows it is still processing not completed.

     

    what should i do(searched online already cant find an answer)☹️

     

  2. Many people paid for moderna

    vaccinations at bangkok pattaya hospital and are still waiting for their first jab ( my thai wife included as she didnt want any sinovac shots).

    Anyone heard any more when they are coming ☹️

  3. I thought my ffp2 and n95 masks were good till i got FIT tested in my local hospital (compulsory in uk if you work in hospital).

    They tried 7 different ffp3 top end masks on me 6 failed and only 1 protected (fitted me correctly)me a GVS ff3 rd mask.

    The way they test you is by putting a large airtight hood over you( while you are wearing your test mask)

    and spray an odor into the hood and if you can smell or taste it the mask fails as it leaks.if you cant smell taste it the mask passes for you.

    Then this mask is safe to wear around people with covid.

    The bottom line is our faces are all different shapes and not all masks fit individual faces.

    So double masking is a very good way to get round this problem.But not %100.

    Ill be wearing my hospital mask when i fly to thailand this weekend.

    problem is do you eat and drink on the plane and take your mask off

    ....problem???

  4. In normal times i wouldnt dream of expecting a vaccination via my embassy/consulate .

    However we are in exceptional times a global pandemic where the rule book is torn up.

    Why cant the Uk embassy show some inspiring initiative and provide vaccinations for its citizens abroad

    for free or paid.....??????

    The airlines have not been told anything yet - and may never be.  The government first said the police would be enforcing the regulations - you would be asked to complete a travel declaration that would be checked by the police - certainly last Thursday, the police at Manchester Airport hadn't received any instructions.

     

    Since then they appear to be saying that it will be the airlines that do the checking - I've spoken to 3 airlines and none of them have had any notification about who they should refuse.  I would also doubt that the airlines would want to get involved in that.

     

    The fact that the police have no information and that the airlines haven't received any instructions brings the government's claims that the travel ban will now be strictly enforced into question.

     

    I agree with Ronaldo though, that BA regularly cancel flights - I would avoid them too.  Etihad have also cancelled flights to and from the UK temporarily but say they will start again next week.

     

    I'm guessing but I think that throughout the whole Pandemic, Qatar have been the most reliable airline for getting to and from Thailand.  You can check particular flight numbers and get 7 days flight history without subscription on:

     

    www.flightradar24.com

     

    Click on 'search' enter the flight number then choose 'Recent or Scheduled' flights.

    I agree Qatar airlines is one of the more reliable airlines through this pandemic but i believe Qatar have a stake in British Airways and when u book a BA flight to thailand at present they are actually using Qatar airlines.

    problem is you have to stop at Doha not good more contacting people,there dont seem to be any direct flights.

    Thai dont seem to be taking any bookings right now as far as i could see.

    Anyway i will go with Qatar in march/april.????????????

  6. I too am trying to get back to see my wife

    in thailand and want to travel within a few weeks.

    I called british airways and they stated i shouldnt have any problems leaving .

    I was happily suprised.

    Still not convinced,think i will wait and see .If no real clarification on what is essential travel i will chance it.

    Not seen my wife in a year what the hell

    got to show her i tried.

  7. From what i have read as the other poster said you need a good reason to fly out of uk.

    As long as the Uk lockdown continues it will be difficult (but not impossible) to fly to thailand provided you have a good reason(work related or compassionate grounds are the reasons according to the Uk Gov travel advice web site).

    How compassionate is the uk gov.???????

    I made my Thai will in Thailand with Isaan Lawyers in Korat. It covers my Thailand assets only, and I have a separate will to cover my assets in Australia. So my suggestion to you is contact Isaan Lawyers, you should be able to do it online. 

    Thanks i will try that , unless anyone knows a reliable lawyer that can do the same in pattaya ?

  9. The uk has already vaccinated over a million people already and the oxford vaccine rolls out this week .

    If this ban is for sure and not u turned 

    Cant think this ban will be for too long?

    I have been told in my medical job i will be vaccinated this month .

    Been waiting a year to see my thai wife was going next month ,about to book the flight and asq.Gutted by this ban news.

    ☹️☹️☹️

  10. Want to get back to thailand quick.

    get admitted to a carehome and or work in one and be first in line for the uk vaccination programme ,which is supposed to start next month .

     

    So hopefully i could be vaccinated before

    i fly to thailand in jan 2021

    I wonder if the vaccination will flag you up as a positive covid test if you just recently had the shot ???
