That will boost the Thai economy ... Every little bit , helps .. dollar beers, dollar rooms, dollar massages, dollar pad thais. Just Make everything a dollar and the tourists will come back in herds! start gouging them by charging 280 baht for a small beer and 5,000 a night for a room and you can forget it., They will never come back. A lot easier to go to Spain than it is to fly all the way here just to be ripped off. Edited June 1, 2021 by WineOh 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know logic is not really the strong point in Thailand but wouldn't have been better to have all formally approved first then to give a RELIABLE information to online travels agents and major travel wholesalers? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The scam is: it's not going to happen imo it sounds more like a pathetic attempt to create a buzz in the hope to attract again some attention on phuket from the international travelers doing that with a fake news + false hopes to lure few tourists seems to be their choice 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a few friends in BKK and down south planning to get to Phuket using that route. I jumped ship and left Thailand for Dubai on 23rd May, got my first vaccine jab on 24th May, second jab arranged for 14th June and hopefully back to Phuket beginning of July. A small gamble but hope it pays off ????, else will do ASQ again . Some of my golfing friends here in UAE are hoping to join me so let's see how that transpires. Six hour flight for them and no quarantine on return. Yes it's rainy season in Thailand but it's summer season here!! No rain and 42 to 44 C. We will all know more (hopefully!) in the next couple of weeks. Rumour from Patong is that small bars may open on 10th June. Not important and only gossip but having worked there for 30 years, my missus is normally in the know....... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One dollar hotel rooms, you can't complain about that, that's for sure. Oh, wait, I forgot. This is TVF, so the usual moaners will still complain. Carry on. Well...let us all know how your holiday goes. If it works out as true and the bars and everything else is ope , the I will also go there. But I don't want to go if it's going to be a ghost town and all the shops and bars shut up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
