I think Russians often bring in dollars anyway but I heard the Russian banks are fresh out of them.

That's too bad but I guess the Swiss never take a side bless their dear hearts.

And today TAT admit that the problems about russia WILL impact the tourism.

I thought TAT might claim they expect this to be a massive boost to Russian tourist numbers, as the Russians will all want to get away to Thailand for a break.....555

Can only imagine he has billions stashed away all over the world and this will have no real impact.....sadly.

He does and he'll help his buddies too which is why sanctions won't be enough.

Although you are somewhat right, we have a cheat called "transliteration" - many russian letters could be written in multiple ways, giving a lot of possibilities to change passports back and forth.

 

Lets take a random name - "Евгений Конюхов", it could be transliterated as:

- Evgeniy Konyuhov

- Evgeniy Koniuhov

- Evgeniy Koniukhov

- Evgeniy Konyuhoff

. . .

- Evgenii ...

- Eugeniy ...

- Eugene . . .

. . .

 

 

And people are allowed to choose whichever transliteration they prefer, just tell that you've lost your old passport and get a new one.

Also Russian citizens are allowed to have 2 different passports with different numbers at the same time, totally legal ????

 

And picture and born date   eventual fingerprints are also to choose you think ....????  of course immigration officers at a border are illiterates (you think ? )  o.k. carry on further ???? 

 

Seeing all those names and writing how   and info ....., i would almost think you are using that system .....????

 

BTW   last news  no joke .....Putin and Lavrov  , both are now also on the list and all their assets in E.U. frozen including properties .....????????????

But another thing to worry about is the flight plans /route that airlines take from and to Thailand , as i see now already because that plane shot down before above disputed area years ago above Ukraine by Russian separatists  they diverted  ...to Russia , but now with those sanctions must expect not allowed that airspace ....(possible) ... , but a bit farther you see the airspace from that other creep Lukashenko from Belarus  ...."Putins buddy ".... so the flight plans need to be changed again ....

 

i hope so as in a few months i need to fly home , and by home i do not mean "God's Paradise " ????

 

Flight route is not exactly like that. Planes fly south of Ukraine and then off to the west, over Romania. This is how it looks right now:

Hilarious.  The exchange booth is selling RUB for 45 to the dollar.  On Wise right now you can get 82.24 RUB to 1 USD.

Actually it's been like this for nearly a week now. Since the military exercises in Belarus started, and rumours began, airlines started avoiding Ukraine air space due to rising insurance costs. Probably more than a week now, actually.

But his luxury yacht (1xx million Dollar) left German shipyard before upgrade work completed.

About a week ago or so

 

Was it in the news here already? Russia forbid British planes to use it's airspace. Some hefty detours to east Asia (if there are any flights).

I think the currency exchanges are unfair.

 

They should at least offer the recycling value for the paper.

Now if someone would sneak over and rip open the hull of Putins 100 million dollar yacht the situation would get a lot more close and personal to him.

DOB is constant, yes. Pictures are not constant, and some countries did not take fingerprints until the last years, including Thailand.

the only cheat I exploit is two different passports. Very useful and convenient, highly recommend.

It's very sad to see only these two and a few more people on the list, I'd love to have a few hundreds more sanctioned.

I wonder when flights will be removed as well.

[sezze]

While i do like it , i also feel sorry for many Russians which have nothing to do with the war , and also do not want it and neither are supporting Putin . I am not saying every Russian is ok , because that would be just the same as they are all bad . They only have the unfortunate fact that they have a Russian passport and do have got Russian money from normal work .

On a few occasions I was at an Exchange I certainly saw Russians changing US dollars into baht.... their Ruble once lost near 50% of its baht value in the past. They are going to be trapped in Thailand.
