Presumably these flight will be flying back empty to Thailand,  who would be allowed on them?

 

Thais seeking repatriation and foreign nationals who qualify, flights are already operating into Thailand for those groups.

Given that the airline is bankrupt and staffed by, how can I put this tactfully, Thais, do you really think that maintenance will have been a priority during the shutdown?

Why would Thais want to fly to UK at this time? 

I met a group if Thai ladies in Salzburg/Austria last weekend. They had flown to Germany. I find it strange that I can't travel to Bkk because Thais are worried we drag in Covid. Yet Thais can travel to countries with daily new infections. Nice that Thais spend their cash in Europe.
