Covid 19 - Repatriation Flights Sydney to Bangkok

[scorecard]

I guess by now quite a few farang have taken the repatriation flight from Sydney to Bangkok.

 

Would you please share some information on this:

 

1. After completing and submitting the COE declaration form, from my understanding the next step is:

 

- Receiving advice re dates of the next flight/flights from the Thai consulate/embassy:

 

Question: Did the advice of next flights/flights come in a personal e.mail, or on facebook, or?

 

2. Was it evident that farang had to take the business class seats?

 

3. How long after you submitted a request for a seat did you get the confirmation you had been assigned a seat?

 

3. What was the the airline and the fare, economy and business?

 

4. Any other insights you can add?

 

Thanks.
