It is good that Thailand is organizing so many repatriation flights for its citizens. 

 

Quite a few flights this month (October).

 

I only follow the U.S. repat flights, and the total capcity is 2,250 for October, with eleven (11) last segments into BKK.

 

Seems like they need more capacity ex-UK? Or need to use more one-stop carriers?
