I'm in no way a "climate change denier", but I'm expecting some pretty strong evidence to come from this whole covid thing. There should be some sort of "due to the reduced CO2 emissions during covid, we can see that the Earth's warming was halted/reduced to X over the two year period" type info coming out.

superal Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Thailand removed from the red list ? not according to this UK gov; link , still have to take a test 72 hours before you leave Thailand and also book another pcr test on day 2 after arrival in the UK and fill in a passenger locator form . Not quite back to normal yet . Pre- warning , there will be delays and queues at the UK immigration zones in the airports .

malthebluff Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 It makes no difference for me I left the uk 25 years ago but I think lots of people have been waiting for this and lots will leave Thailand this will mean a lot less money being spent in Thailand and we all know the thai they like it when we spend so as soon as the realise theres even less money going around things will change quicker and they will open the bars less quarantine less curfews all a little late but I think they will forget about covid and the deaths and start opening up 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IamNoone88 Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 If you own a home a in Thailand in any sandbox location, you should be allowed to return to it and still take the tests and not be shoe horned/manipulated into some Hotel Association quarantine for 7 days as a way of generating their incremental revenue. This does little to support investment in the country in the property (or yachting) sector. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Loh Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 What a difference a day makes. Yesterday covid infections and deaths in Thailand were 11,200 and 113 respectively and we on red list. Just a day after, cases were 11,340 and 116 deaths and we cleared from the red list. What change? Just bowing to economic pressures like all countries. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pack up and go return to a freezing cold Uk is stressful enough but this is a massive boost to be able to book a flight and go if you need to get out of here in a hurry.

However, the new UK rules don't necessarily mean British won't face restrictions in their holiday destination. Non-Thai passengers from the UK and Ireland are still required to undergo a 7-10 quarantine at an approved facility in the country after arriving. The quarantine is seven days if full 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
