In the News now.

Asking the same for a mate in Germany. Can someone point me to the source for "two hour drive from Suvarnabhumi allowed"?

Did some search and came up with this: https://pattayadrain.com/ All in Thai language. Call center: 061 809 6444 Office: 061 809 6222 Line ID: finrock Line ID Official: @tortan "tortan" is the name of "Tortan Group". Maybe kind of franchise? https://tortangroup.com/

Sure. But "for the time being". It's another 7 weeks until a real season would start. Patience required.

There is always a chance of local/regional problems. But from years of reading here, there is worse than 3BB. And AIS fiber which is highly praised is not available for you.

I use Nord VPN and satisfied with it. Throttling, I can only give you an example regarding youtube videos. Playing or downloading high quality can become erratic at peak times (6 to 8 PM typically). If I connect to a Singapore VPN playing is always smooth. Download also smooth (not as fast as best case without VPN but still better than erratic).

And the Phuket sandbox showed that very few cases very imported? Or did I get that wrong? So what's all the fuss about new variants/mutations in country xyz if strict checks of vaccination and test on entry is done combined with health insurance? The virus exist since 2019 and will never vanish completely. Learn to live with it or die from starvation/economic depression/stagflation ...

As already seen in the later news post: not all of Chonburi is exempted but only the designated areas (Muang Pattaya = Mueang Pattaya = Pattaya city e.g.). Chonburi city has the highest number of detected infections in the province.

To me it means dumping this nonsense spreading news media. Remember them stating that five countries are eligible? This rumor nonsense is still not completely silenced. Wait for reputable sources. I haven't found a single indication about "chartered" in the TAT announcement and the new CeO website (even though not spent to much on it). Why would they switch from regular scheduled flights like now?

Your nonsense is no better. You never experienced seasons in Thailand? What is all the excitement about November 1? Of course it will slowly go forward and heaven helps that the rainy season extends to Christmas.

Mobile internet is a nice addition but nothing beats a wired fiber connection. Have 3BB 1000/500 for two years or so. No relevant outages, never felt the need to call customer service. Consider "investing" in a good VPN SW to circumvent throttling/country based locks etc.

Expectations met? So much nagging, whining. Uh, one day quarantine is not quarantine free. Uh, no bar/booze (which might change until Christmas/New Year season). Thailand HAS something to offer for those who sit in the dark/cold/grey/wet Europe with all the woke babble.

Yes, even in Phuket. For the rest the question sounds sarcastic

And gasohol/benzene users pay for it

Thread is a mystery to me. But maybe I am alone with that.

Exactly. But thoughts are free. I have missed/not noticed anything of the OP. Only message relevant is the oncoming service outage on 24 Oct.

".sv" in the link, El Salvador That would be the point for me to swipe to the bin. It's an elaborate pishing attempt but also the "thailandpost" links are not genuine. I would not bother post office with it. It's a cyber crime affair and Thai post itself can't do much except warn. With the already many thousand victims just dump and forget. Check your account and be happy if no unusual activity. Thanks for showing your experience. Just today paid for a domestic ticket via online banking (1130 Baht). As usual being directed to banks login site and have to enter an 8 digit OTP received as SMS on the smartphone. Wonder how they managed this fraud. Is it for the low amounts deducted? I just won 40000 Euro in the lottery and Angel is waiting for me

To add some complication. The 21st (tommorow) will be a public holiday in "central Thailand"/"central region". Don't ask me for a precise list. From Richard Barrow:

Where is the gallery? Where can I vote? Boring. .... Found: https://missuniverse.in.th/contestan-vote-by-number/ Faces only

True if you want to check for taking umbrella or not Their composite is also interesting: https://weather.tmd.go.th/composite/index_composite.html Currently not much around except in the deep south.

For forecast I use: https://meteologix.com/th/forecast/1609350-bangkok/xltrend You can search for a multitude of Thai locations (seems like down to district level). It shows forecast values (temp, rain, wind) from a range of weather centers. I usually untick all but the "ECMWF" sites (European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts). This is the precipitation forecast for Bangkok as an example:

Exactly. Although an important Bhuddhist holiday, it's not a public holiday. It's a full moon holiday with varying dates. Fr 22 is substitute for Sat 23 (Chulalongkorn day). Completely unrelated, fixed date.

Good point. Khon Kaen same same. Never any appointment needed there for me and others. Last extension in at 9:30h (dead empty), out 10:05h with new stamp. Unfortunately I have no contacts in Udon.

A zopf (sweet butter braid). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zopf Had no idea that you English would use this word.
