crobe Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 Not sure where this boom is coming from, but definitely is not occurring in Pattaya at the moment. I walked around the centre on Saturday afternoon and still very quiet Yes, the massage salons seem to be open again, but they don' have any customers, and the main "wet" massage places are still closed. A few people in Central Festival but nowhere near the usual Saturday afternoon amount It will probably be like this until they relax more restrictions Even domestic tourism wont come back until you open the bars and take away the curfew - who wants to stay overnight if you cannot go out and have to be back in your hotel room by 11?

Oh yeah duly noted, it was a Surge in Visitors due to the many tourist attractions, well then I completely understand now, not a Travel Boom. Thank you, I feel so much better now as I was very worried for awhile until you pointed out my glowing error. We wouldn't want a Boom in Covid cases, but then a Surge in Covid would not be warranted either. Just look at the malls, which I believe have had more people than the beaches had this past weekend, so then Maybe the Mall sales are Booming!!!!.

Mac98 Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 8 hours ago, Tropicalevo said: "Never let the truth get in the way of a good story"? I have trouble reconciling the encouraging of Chinese tourists with Thailand's 'no smoking in public' stance. As a non smoker I am happy with that, but pretty much every Chinese guest that we have had is a smoker. Somewhat relevant: I was looking at coastal resorts in Japan and the ones I opened all allowed smoking. One site read: "We do not have no-smoking rooms. Please do not ask." I love Japan. Too bad it's so expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truth Will Set You Free Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Did anyone notice during this down time how clean the streets of Jomtien were, how clean the air was from no construction going on and just this weekend trash back out on the beach? So for the government that say foreigners are nasty, why don’t they come to Pattaya beaches and see exactly how the Thai’s are! They placed trash cans out and took them back out after the weekend because of the amount of trash. They need to wash down the entire sidewalk in Jomtien. I guess they can’t smell and see the fish sauce in the concrete, not to mention the dog sh it every where to included on the sand. Have fun on the beach, it hasn’t been disinfected as they claim it would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be like this until boarders are open, worldwide, planes are flying at pre virus frequency and pricing, people get back to work and save for their next trip here, forced quarantines and personal quarantines are removed, and travel insurance companies offer Covid insurance or do not exclude it. Only after all of these things happen, will Pattaya start to get some tourists coming back in meaningful numbers. It could take 12 to 18 months.
