NanLaew Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 7 hours ago, NanLaew said: FYI, on 17 June, Singapore opened a fast-track, non-quarantine visitor channel for foreigners from Australia, Brunei Darussalam, Hong Kong, Japan, Macao, Mainland China, New Zealand, Republic of Korea, Taiwan and Vietnam. They have also initiated a 'fast lane' for residents in China who need to make essential business or official travel between Singapore and the six fast lane regions in China (Chongqing, Guangdong, Jiangsu, Shanghai, Tianjin and Zhejiang). Now, back to the Thai bashing. Here's the kicker. The following is the list of foreign countries for whom the UK government have just waived quarantine-on-arrival. No prizes for guessig who didn't get invited. Andorra Germany New Zealand Antigua and Barbuda Greece Norway Aruba Greenland Poland Australia Grenada Réunion Austria Guadeloupe San Marino Bahamas Hong Kong Serbia Barbados Hungary Seychelles Belgium Iceland South Korea Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba Italy Spain Croatia Jamaica St Barthélemy Curaçao Japan St Kitts and Nevis Cyprus Liechtenstein St Lucia Czech Republic Lithuania St Pierre and Miquelon Denmark Luxembourg Switzerland Dominica Macau Taiwan Faroe Islands Malta Trinidad and Tobago Fiji Mauritius Turkey Finland Monaco Vatican City France Netherlands Vietnam French Polynesia New Caledonia Only one ASEAN country made the grade. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2020/07/03/full-list-countries-exempt-uk-travel-quarantine/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kindly note that, individually, each country has the right to reduce their list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P100 Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 (edited) This again is just so sick. Like children dreaming while playing in the sandbox. Are these stupid Thai officials children? Yes private airplane big big spenders will come sooo many you need to build one more airport to can handle them... Those who had really big money they came already dispite bans. They just paid the immigration. Travrlling was always possible for the rich and special. Some even fly multiple times to Munich and back and forth...and back...during corona lockdowns Edited July 3, 2020 by P100 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Monday Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 6 hours ago, rucker4012 said: Parking private jets is a problem. Phuket had a plan to open a private jet terminal. Don't know if that ever happened. Most Intl airports have no provision for overnight pkg much less weekly spots. If Thailand ever opened up civil aviation like the marine industry, thousands of jobs would be created. Thailand would not accept my USA license unless signed by FAA Administrator. All FAA license are online. Several sentences. Complete rubbish. Please do some more research before you post again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would likely bring a mere handful to a country that needs millions to restore anything like normality to the travel sector. Thailand has been very fortunate with Covid and to let anyone in who has a few bucks more than average early seems like asking for trouble. Maybe they'll have another go at enticing the rich Indians, the last effort failed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DLock Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Why would wealthy person with a private jet want to come to Thailand anyway? What "world class" attractions, events, social scene or reason would attract them? Feels like a loophole for chartered private 737's from Europe to me... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't even go into this because it is obvious to anybody with a functioning brain. Never mind, sunny day today, I'm off for a walk.. And yet they have likely not spent five minutes pondering the sacrifices required for the ability to attract this caliber of tourist. Easing luxury taxes to 20%, so the fat cats can spend $5,000 to $50,000 on baling while visiting. This is a not a dumb group of people. They will not spend double or true just because they are here, despite what the arrogant and ignorant authorities think. Lower wine taxes from 360%, to 80%. It would boost the economy and make Thailand more attractive for the rich who will NOT spend $1,300 for a bottle of wine they can get for $250 elsewhere. Simplify visa policy, or have a customs officer come to the plane like they do in many civilized nations. Improve high speed domestic travel. Increase access to private helicopter travel. I could go on for days. Saying you want super rich tourists, and then doing nothing progressive to attract them, tells us who you are, and why you are so spactacularly unsuccessful in what you do, Mr. Pipat.

zaZa9 Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 All the arm chair Thaivisa experts who predicted Thailand would collapse under Covid 19 really should shut the hell up now. Thailand coped admirably, and rpatriated its own. Next comes business people , investors and spouses and kids. The 1st "tourists " will be the wealthy because they are a small population that generally spend a lot. Its only the start , but its logical . Whats to whinge about ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
