Arrival Point

[KhaoYai]

I can't find any information about this other than for Bangkok, Phuket & Samui.  Last time I arrived on Test & Go I booked into a hotel in Bangkok for my frst night and then travelled home to Khao Yai.  However, as there are SHA Plus + hotels near to me now, can I do my 1st night near home?  I'm guessing that if this is possible it would have to be in a car sent by the hotel, which would probably cost a crazy amount.  That could be negotiable though, so I just need to know if its possible - with links if the info is avilable.

 

Also, a friend is coming over soon - hos final destination will be Chiang Mai. I believe there are SHA Plus+ hotels in Chiang Mai, can he do his Day 1 test and quarantine there? If so, how about airport transfers, would he be allowed to board a flght from Suvarnabhumi to Chiang Mai or does he have to arrive at Chiang Mai? I think the latter and that would not be easy (maybe impossible) from the UK. I'm not even sure that CNX is open to international flights at the moment - I can't see any international arrivals or departures today on their website.

 

I'm guessing that in both cases, it will be far easier to stay in Bangkok for the first night.

Those sha++ are for the 5th night. No point for stretching yourself for the 1st night.

Scoot have started flights from SIN - CNX so it's possible, but would need care in organising.  Transfer at BKK is not allowed (yet?) for CNX.

From your arrival airport you can travel by pre-arranged airport transfer anywhere by Road only so long as your arrive at your hotel within a 5 hour window from leaving the airport https://www.tatnews.org/2022/02/thailand-reopening-exemption-from-quarantine-test-go/

Thanks for that Vinny. So it looks like I can book in near home - as long as I can sort the transport out with the hotel.  Doesn't look like my mate can do go to Chiang Mai though.

I have a very good reason to 'stretch' myself.  In any case, depending on your arrival time and how fast your test result comes, you can be away in a matter of hours - 6.5 for me last time.

For Chiang Mai, you have to arrive at CNX on an international flight.
