[KhunBENQ]

Will be hot news soon (or is it already?).

Wait with application for Thailand pass until full details known.

Found at Twitter of Richard Barrow.

If it is true , best news in a while , especially with the numbers in Europe ( and according measures to be lifted ) . Will is all go back to a more normal situation ? I certainly hope so , i'm all ready to come over in May , and if the news is confirmed , won't take long for me to book my flight .

Just finished my Thailand pass application with day 1 and 5 bookings. I was probably the last one ????

Good news anyway????

Just can't let the entire thing go, however, can they?  Forget the testing. All of it, and the threat of quarantine. Scrap the insurance. All of it. If someone can't get insurance because of age or previous condition, it's not going to make a difference whether the policy is for $1 or $10 million.  Just let it all go. Put things back to the way they were, and then maybe things will start to improve.

With this mob in charge, just wait for the bitter-sweet bit.... maybe they will add some retarded clause or extra thing... or close beaches or swimming pools or diving. You just can't trust these Muppets. They're either stupid or evil... often both.

The radical loosening up of Covid-19 regulations started this month in England and now the world is following.  THANK YOU BORIS!!!

Is there any country in the world, including your own, doing as you suggest?

What makes me a bit sceptic is the wording of a 2nd test as ATK "self"test.

Will they really trust in responsible behavior of foreigners?

Switzerland as one.

Haven't checked about Denmark and others.

It would be welcome news but I wouldn’t get too excited. With the rising numbers, some automaton is bound to get it all wrong again and target visitors. 

[PJ71]

Is this confirmed?

 

[2 is 1]

People's travel not chance anything ! Should get rid off all restriction's! Tourist's can't bring in more covid that already has in Thailand. Soon hole planet going to be open but Thailand is "closed".

it’s a direct result of the people of Thailand doing their bit and getting vaccinated.

Thailand has recently raised the COVID alert Level to ‘4’.

That'll help bring in the stragglers.

 

As these COVID numbers increase many airlines won't be flying here until its brought under control.

 

Getting insurance will be more problematic.

That's the upside of getting busted having illegal parties. Got to keep all those back benchers onside, eh?

 

Maybe other world leaders should note this method for future variants/events/elections, etc..

My country lets illegal aliens cross the border, registers them, and doesn't require them to be vaccinated and then puts them on a plane to fly them to cities across the country. 

So that's Thailand and the USA that you find all too difficult.

 

Where are you going to go next?

Not so long ago my home country, which has 25% of Thailand population, had 80,000 infections a day.  No airline stopped flying.

[Caldera]

That's good news, and timely - Vietnam has planned a March 15th reopening with similar conditions.

It is in Thailand news forum now.

No need for two topics about it. This topic is now closed.
