What are the Conditions like currently, ie social distancing?

Has anyone been offered house arrest as a resolution?

Are flights still being made available to the U.K./ Germany/ Canada & Netherlands?

The monkey house for people awaiting deportation.

Does it have an official name that would match initials IDC? International Deportation Center?

Detention rather than deportation, but does the same thing.  Not a place you'd want to visit, let alone reside in.  

Immigration Detention Center.

Why the questions about IDC at this point in time.  Did someone you know get nicked for a violation?  Inquiring minds want to now.  I will go make some more popcorn and await.... 

The conditions are bad, really bad. You would want to avoid this at any time. Is this in regards to overstay?

Although doubt it would be much different now.

I think it would be appropriate to rename it to the : IDC : Infection Death Center

I guess he saw that as the "last outpost" before a flight back to Oz, so found it better than completeing the life sentence in a prison. After 12 years it was just a blip to be endured

I remember from his book that he mentions it was like a luxury Palace compared to Big Tiger.

Sharon,

Depends on what nationality you are.

This is from a post I made on Friday.

DEPARTING THAILAND
•       Lufthansa: Bangkok – Frankfurt, 3x per week (Monday; Thursday; Saturday)
•       Qatar Airways : Bangkok - Doha, Daily operating until 20 April (Qatar is still flying almost everywhere, including Europe, on a daily basis)
•       KLM : Bangkok to Amsterdam, 2x per week (Monday; Saturday)
•       EVA Airways: Bangkok to London-Heathrow, 4x per week (Sunday; Tuesday; Wednesday; Friday)
•       Korean Airlines : Bangkok - Seoul, Daily (connecting flights to various Canadian and US cities from there via Delta Airlines and Air Canada).

Most of that should still be valid. There are other airlines still flying as well.

On the Suvarnabhumi Departure Board I see a KLM flight to Amsterdam listed (code share with Air France and Australian Airlines). Other flights going to Korea and Japan, some of which may have connections to Europe/N. America.

To get a reply regarding flights available, why not get in touch with embassies or simply check their facebook info.

you'll get one of these when you go into IDC and then Deported out .

Looking at the majority of responses here, what can only reflect on what truly vile human beings many on here are. 

 

Covid is most definitely bringing out the best in folks.

 

 

 

One mans experience .

 

 

From the comments , a more objective view maybe :

 

I was sent to Bangkok IDC last year for overstay, immigration arrested me on my way to the border to pay the fine and renew my visa, i also stayed in the room with the 2 Iranian gay guys, one big guy (who beat anyone who started trouble) and the smaller guy(who cut hair for 100baht)...they kept the place in order, i had no problem with them, they were strict but respectful, without them the place would be chaotic, the guy making this video obviously did'nt follow the rules, caused a scene and was punished the Thai way and then the IDC way....IDC is no way fun at all, but at least you have clean bathrooms, free meals each day, a flat screen tv on the wall playing english movies all day, are able to buy snacks, toiletries, cigarettes and other essentials if you have money, and have access to an embassy ambassador from your country who helped you contact family, arrange funds and arranged for you to finally be sent home.....this is thailand, this is how they deal with unwanted foreigners here, and its a whole different story being locked up in a Thai prison.....i was sent home to home to the UK after being given a 5 year ban from re-entering Thailand, i then flew to cambodia, paid a family who lived on the border to let me cross back into Thailand and have been living here with my Thai family ever since....lol ..IDC doesn't scare me, its just a process, and one day ill use it to get a free ride home again.....true story.

Hi Denim, Thank you for taking the time to write this. How quickly can you leave IDC if flights & money are both available?

I have visited IDC  (& most other prisons) it can be like that photo --& worse--or it can be quite empty, depending on the rate they move them out, (or how busy the BMW is these days)  as you can see from that pic ---not to many white faces ..the Embassy's usually sort something out in the end.  The best IME  Ireland --then Scandy's , USA is OK they will get you back, take it from your pension or something---Kiwi little better than Oz..........the UK rates quite low against them, never dealt with Canada.

In Pattaya they were using the old Immigration office -Soi 8 behind the Sailor Bar as it has cells in it.....

 

Covid-19...No Sorry no not been anywhere near a MH in 7 years.

I didn't write the paragraph below the videos. It was a copy paste of one of the comments below the videos. 

 

I have no direct experience of how quickly things can happen if flights and money are no option but you can do a google search or you tube search and you might find an answer. I would think that as there are fewer flights available than normally it could take a bit longer.  If I had a friend stuck in the IDC I would go there and talk to an immigration officer face to face to find out exactly what the procedure is and how long it takes.

 

If for whatever reason you cannot go in person you might ask somebody to go on your behalf.

 

This being Thailand I would imagine that things move quicker if the wheels get a little grease. Problem is knowing exactly which wheel needs the attention so best avoided if possible.

At the moment things are not normal I guess it's not easy to get a flight to your home country so you could be stuck there for a while
