That's a good point. Assuming the flight is a repatriation one (i.e. the aircraft departed Thailand with only crew on board) and they don't leave the aircraft at the pick-up point then the chance of contracting the virus would be very low. Although ground staff do sometimes enter an aircraft, with social distancing and appropriate sanitation and hand washing this shouldn't be an issue.
