Source for what?  Thai are only allowed on arranged by Embassy flights with Embassy documents and on landing are taken into quarantine at government facilities?  This has been the case for more than a month now and the number is limited to between 200 and 300 per day as not enough capacity for more so huge backlog (thousands).  Watch any of the daily covid briefings - this is link to today's - near the end the report on such arriving flights.

My wife is on a Facebook group of Thais living in UK. One of them registered with the Thai embassy in London for a flight back to Thailand. There was a fairly large waiting list and the costs were starting at 1500 pounds.

I s there any source for that possibly in Thai, not doubting you at all, seems a bit steep though!

 

As already posted, you can listen to the government's daily Covid19 briefings in Thai.

 

Alternatively a simple Google search will bring up many resources that will verify this information.

 

These restrictions have been in place for a number of weeks now and they have been very well publicised with multiple news articles about them.
