PHUKET: Phuket officials are readying for Phuket International Airport to reopen mid-June, following a provincial order issued on Sunday night that opened interprovincial travel into and out of Phuket, and for hotels and all tourism-related businesses to resume operations.

 

The Phuket office of the Public Relations Department of Thailand (PR Phuket) this morning reported that Phuket airport will reopen on June 15, and boasted that Phuket is ready for arrivals with its control measures that have successfully countered the spread of COVID-19.

 

PR Phuket announced that all people passing through Phuket airport are to follow the same requirements as announced ahead of the planned May 16 re-opening, which fell through just hours before the airport was to reopen.

There's still been no proper explanation as to why Phuket Airport has remained closed when most other airports are open, though if beaches and bars remain closed I'd expect more passengers will be leaving than arriving.

Those Tourist places can come in usefull later on, just regard them as those  Plague Ships and Islands were used for years ago to monitor new outbreaks.
