Sanlak Panyawatthanalikit, President of the Transport Company Limited (BorKorSor), announced the resumed services on Saturday (June 19). “The transport sector supports people and tourists who want to travel to Phuket, and are ready to give instructions to all operators regarding user convenience, including implementing public health standards and strict safety standards to build confidence for service users,” Mr Sanlak said.

Popular Post Caldera Posted June 22, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 22, 2021 I think that's a scary proposition. If someone on the bus has Covid and you breathe the same recirculated air as them for 10+ hours, aerosol transmission is a real possibility. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natway09 Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Went to Hat Yai ONCE on the bua for a visa run. Got off the bus & the Tuk Tuk driver said "border". I said yes, but Thai Airways office first for return flight. Enuf said!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pagallim Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 I rather think that the principle reason for this increase in buses is in anticipation of some of those many thousands of people wishing to return to Phuket for employment, having returned to their home provinces over this past year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
