Vaccination required for domestic flights?

Featured Replies

I cannot find information on the airlines websites. Does anyone know if proof of covid vaccination is required for domestic flights (from BKK to Udon Thani)? Thanks in advance.

Yes it is, or a negative covid test. 

Flew to Phuket lat week with AirAsia. All that was required was confirmation of double vaccination.

I am flying to Hat Yai soon and checked with the airline (Viet Air).

I was told you don't need anything just a mask and temperature test. I'm not sure I believe them so we will be taking proof of vaccination to be sure. I was afraid we would be subject to a rapid antigen test. Will there be tests in Hat Yai, I don't know and of course this can change daily.

I have taken several domestic flights over the past month, all with Air Asia. On none of them was any paperwork required or checked. All that was needed was a  temperature check and a mask. Having said that, of course the rules could change at any time.

Yes, being vaccinated has been the key to opening the door to a return to some travel normality for me as most provinces have vaccination/testing requirements (although it does vary).

A post in a foreign language has been removed. English is the primary language used for posting on this forum.

 

I recently did some googling on domestic flights to Krabi and what I found was mostly "no test if vaccinated".

Flown Viet and Air Asia recently to a from several airports never been asked for anything.

 

Rules change constantly day to day from airline to airline, airport to airport, island to island and hotel to hotel. Make sure you are doubly vaccinated (+/- Booster) and have proof of it, preferred proof appears to be Mor Prom QR code but Covid Vaccination Certificate is also fine. Simple as that.

I flew to Hat Yai in December, no testing, no checking, nothing but I did take my vaccinated certificate

It sounds like but you didn't state clearly that you are un-vaccinated.

Although checks have become sporadic/inconsistent you have a chance to get problems. It's a gamble.

Official escape is a documented ATK test (cheaper and fast compared to PCR).

 

Khon Kaen to Bkk no check for test, just vaccine. 

Bkk to KK needed to show test. 15 yo daughter didn't have test, they did never mind. Thai smile.
