Popular Post webfact Posted October 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2021 File photo: Suvarnabhumi Airport//Credit: Wikipedia Thailand’s main international airport will operate at just 30 percent capacity on Monday, the first day of its reopening to foreign tourists. According to the Airports of Thailand, 30,000 passengers are due to arrive at Suvarnabhumi Airport on Nov 1. The passengers will arrive on 440 commercial flights consisting of 230 domestic flights, 110 international and 100 cargo flights, AoT president Nitinai Sirismatthakarn said Monday will see the airport operating at about 30 percent capacity, adding that 7,000 of the 30,000 arrivals will be from international flights, TNN reported. Mr Nitinai added that special measures, such as the addition of more self check-in machines and baggage drop off points, have been installed at the airport in order to accommodate passengers as part of the ‘new normal’. Meanwhile, Police General Damrongsak Kittipraphat said that 3,700 police have been drafted in to take care of the airports included in the reopening plans. The Pol.Gen Damrongsak said that he expects an average of about 4,000 foreign tourists to arrive in Thailand per day. Pol.Gen Damrongsak added that the Thailand Pass will mean that tourists should not have to wait long in queues as was sometimes the case in the past. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2021-10-30 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow ASEAN NOW on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates Get your business in front of millions of customers who read ASEAN NOW with an interest in Thailand every month - email [email protected] for more information 3 1 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if your flight transfers at Changi airport, the Singapore authorities have fixed that time gap at 48 hrs, rather than 72.

Popular Post ikke1959 Posted October 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2021 Nowhere I have read that wearing a facemask is a must in THailand, not on any travel advice nor the requirements for tourists coming to Thailand. In many countries people don't need to wear a mask anymore.. I am curious what will happen 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure there will be rush first couple weeks of those been waiting to get back home or visit family. But those type travelers won't drive the numbers needed to head off the great depression. 13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then they thought again, changing the news to only '7,000', i.e. cutting earlier announcements by more than three quarters. - They had to explain, however, previous lofty numbers, so they 'shifted' the balance to 'domestic arrivals'...

Popular Post maddox41 Posted October 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2021 If your Australian and want to come not easy as most insurance companys here won't insure as Thailand is a Level 3 amber country and no covid insurance cover so no entry unless you go thru Luma or AXA Thailand and thats not cheap. Plus the 5000 b PCR test here and the 6000 AQ hotel for 1 night Expats will dribble in But Tourists for a 2 week holiday im not so sure???? 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
