I have a flight to Bsngkok 13 Jan. While I can change this booking for free, I can't just change it to arrive in Phuket in order to do sandbox. I would need a brand new ticket with my current one wasted. How can Thailand insist on you pre-Paying for flights, hotel, taxi and PCR Tests, approve you to come, and then say nope, your double vaxed, PCR negative tested <deleted> is no longer welcome....TAT thanks you for your wasted baht though ????

He's the health minister and deputy PM...more than just a proposal just like his last announcement that test & go would be suspended turned out to be rubber stamped

It's in the aseannow news post above "After January 10, anyone who enters Thailand would only be able to do so via the Phuket Sandbox."

Really, it's clearly stated in multiple reports that no entry via test & go after 10 Jan....flights, hotel, taxi, PCR tests wasted ????

Approved 1 day Test & Go in Bangkok all paid for, was arriving 13 Jan...if I was willing to do 7 days ASQ I would have done it ages ago....Thailand is a disaster with every tourist reccomended to go anywhere but there...

After January 10, anyone who enters Thailand would only be able to do so via the Phuket Sandbox. So how can I enter via Phuket Sandbox when my flight arrives in Bangkok 12 Jan with hotel, taxi and PCR Tests already paid for Bangkok...

Anyone read Thai? Barrow says it's now locked out after 10 Jan ???? BREAKING: The Ministry of Public Health is now recommending extending the suspension of new applications for Test & Go until the end of the month and they also propose, those who already have a Thailand Pass for Test & Go, must enter before 10 January.

You must be old...

So is it real or not? Have cancelled my trip but starting to think it's just words?

So random, guy is stabbed to death and you go on about no foot paths...

You must have a low bar for fun, how sad if you actually think that lol

Haha, after the nightmare trying to get Thai Pass before the deadline, everyone accepted cancellation within a couple of hours....I'm now Thailand free ????

Well there is this that says so

I'm just broken. 3rd time I was coming only for rules to change at last moment. As for Australia, we are fully open, never required a covid test in 2 years. To do a test every 3 days just to go out for a meal is ridiculous and a deal breaker

Oops, I just realised I can still come to Thailand and just blacklist Pattaya for their draconian rules...

Doesn't matter. I've already canceled a 6 month trip based on this news, I'm sure others will do the same.

Lol, people arriving from overseas on test & go have a 0.12% positive rate....that's 1 person in a 1000 and even then could be false positive

I am so angry right now! I have just canceled my 1 night Test & Go which I can't get back as Thai Pass suspended. Thailand changing rules daily should be told to everyone in the World so that no- one comes. I've never hated a country as much as I do now.

I am just devastated. After all the stress to get a Thai Pass after they suddenly cancelled it, and now an ATK result required every 72 hours just to go eat. Do they think this is normal life for a country of 70 million with only 3000 cases per day? The state of Queensland Australia currently has over 3000 cases per day from a population of only 5 million and everything is open and no-one is dying...life is normal

3rd time I've cancelled my Pattaya home coming. Won't be doing a 4th Anyone want a cheap Condo?

Yep, just cancelled my Jan 14 trip

They are all doomed now They now require you to have a negative ATK result within 72 hours of sitting down for a meal or have a drink... I lasted 2 years without a covid test, stuffed if I'm going to have one every 72 hours just to eat out.. https://thepattayanews.com/2022/01/02/chonburi-governor-releases-late-night-updated-orders-around-covid-19-and-food-and-beverage-establishments/

And now the Governor has mandated a negative ATK result required within 72 hours of having a meal... ...World has gone mad, might as well cancel my trip cause I won't be doing a test every 3 days just to go out to eat https://thepattayanews.com/2022/01/02/chonburi-governor-releases-late-night-updated-orders-around-covid-19-and-food-and-beverage-establishments/

Are you for real, taxi always does over 140 kph, that's my point...terrifying

What a load of <deleted>. You started this thread being a doomsayer and hating on Pattaya. Covid happened and places shut whereby you claimed 'I told you so that places would close' Close this thread already, it's beyond ridiculous how much you think you are a bar business genius and yet you've never owned a bar in your life lol
