I think his info was from a source that is under this this forum rule. "26) The Bangkok Post and Phuketwan do not allow quotes from their news articles or other material to appear on ASEANNOW.com. Neither do they allow links to their publications.

Why do you thinks members would know what's the government policy is? They will also regurgitate the same information they read from the same blogs , most probably.

Pdavies99 Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 Sorry, but I think you are being very naieve? Committing everyone to the cost of this....what if one person in your group has covid at time of flight, maybe you will be all refused boarding, maybe all quarantined at Bangkok. A new highly contagious strain was announced today from the African Countries with flights entry etc being effected! What if that spreads to other countries? It is far too early to be organising such a trip, but as they say "Up to you" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petey11 Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 (edited) I agree with a lot of posters, it's down to an officials interpretation the law. Remember this is the land of brown envelopes. From personal experience I can tell you what the law and official line is isn't always what happens. I had to use the threat of involving the UK consulate to get my passport back once. Remember you are a foreign visitor in Thailand and if you weren't here something wouldn't have happened. Eg, motor accident your fault even if not as if you hadn't been here on holiday the accident wouldn't have happened. A lot of things in Thailand seem illogical to foreigners but that's life in Thai.

Aussieroaming Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 You should look for a specific travel insurance policy (not medical) that may cover enforced quarantine when not ill. Medical policy generally will not generally cover you if you are forced into precautionary quarantine if you are not personally ill enough to require hospitalisation. There have been numerous cases of covid positive people who were foced to quarantine whilst infected but who were asymptomatic and medical insurance companies denied them coverage. Some have subsequently contested the payment denial though and succeeded as well. So its dependent on your policy, the insurance company attitude and your state of wellbeing.

Best you look into the crystal ball, your questions can't be answered here at this time. Good luck in the future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UbonEagle Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Struggling to see how this works - u sit next to covid infected person (not known at time) and go to different hotels and have tests done. The following day they get back their positive test, the system then needs to find you as a close contact and get onto you before getting your test and leaving...in LOS i think that would be nigh on impossible. Now of course they can find you and drag you back to QT i suppose ? And as i just read they are already going to rapid test and no overnight hotel, million to one it'll still be an issue in April next year...or the whole border closed again because of Europe/US blowouts...i doubt it but def would be not booking anything months in advance atm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
