Why are they hosing down the plane?

Is it disinfectant?

Is that supposed to kill deadly mutant viruses?

Which Thai airport did the foreign visitors depart from?

Were they all tested before they departed?

SO where exactly did they come from if they are from Asian countries, and what hoops did or did they not jump through, information is very sketchy at best.

Reportedly 5 actual sandbox types on the plane and only 38 booked for rest of month ! Hardly going to make any impact !

Apparently some sources are saying they're mostly journalists along for a free photo shoot.

It's a welcoming gesture: "Water Salute - Touching Airport Tradition" https://www.aerotime.aero/22878-water-salute-touching-airport-tradition

 

The plane originated at Suvarnabhumi.

 

Testing prior to departure from the origin country is supposed to be a requirement of the Samui+ program.

Talk about clutching at straws! Inviting Youtubers in the hope that they will persuade the masses to come!

Note the contingent of BiB ready to welcome the visitors with the time-honoured gesture of right arm extended palm uppermost.......

Yeah. I hate to be unpleasant but, aside from people visiting because they have family or close contacts in Thailand, you'd have to be (well, probably be) pretty thick to take a vacation in the middle of a raging pandemic.

Maybe if we all started drinking Thai tap water it would make perfect sense?  

I have no words or understanding of this hose thing.  What on earth are they doing?
