Popular Post sqwakvfr Posted October 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2021 “He says air traffic data shows Suvarnabhumi airport will facilitate about 440 commercial flights -- 230 domestic and 110 international -- and 100 cargo flights on Monday.” 230 and 110? The trick about airline flights is this: CodeShare. The same flight could be counted up to 3 times. Let’s say a Japan Airlines Flight arrives at BKK on Monday but they have a codeshare with American Airlines and a European Carrier. Even thought it is one B777 but statistically speaking it could be counted as multiple flights. 30,000 passenger arrival on Monday? Possibly if the majority are domestic passengers. “Lies, Damm Lies and Statistics”. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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???? Many hotels offer the "Room + PCR test + airport transfer" package for 6,000 baht. There are more affordable deals, starting at 4500 baht for such a package. For those who in any case chooses an expensive 5 * hotel, these are not bad offers, I think. Insurance ... It's still really expensive. And I still can't find offers with $50,000 coverage (i see only $100,000). I think the price should be lower for a smaller coverage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pol.Gen Damrongsak said that he expects an average of about 4,000 foreign tourists to arrive in Thailand per day. 3700 policemen for 4000 tourists, almost a policeman for a tourist to say ''' welcome tourist, where do you have the money?'''

Not sure where you got your numbers from, but here are some real prices that are available now for anybody who is interested in travelling to Thailand: PCR test which can be booked on the Thailand pass official website is Baht 2400. One of the cheapest SHA+ cerified hotels I found on Booking.com in Bangkok in November is Baht 333. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thailand has no idea how many passengers are booked or even going to fly. Airlines do not confirm flight manifests until after check-in at the departing country. Pure speculation, based on arriving aircraft capacity... not bums on seats. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wwest5829 Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Wow! 30,000 on the first day of reopening November 1, 2021. I wish the Kingdom of Thailand well but, it would seem to me that making such a forecast, if 30,000 do not arrive at Swampy, the statement might be construed as embarrassing to the Kingdom.
