ezzra Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 Arriving passengers are unable to identify their hotels on the small boards of the understaffed counters and long lines are forming with some complaining online that they waited close to two hours until they finally get on their way. In response, the airport authorities have now added nine additional counters to stem the onslaught of passengers at peak times but worse things might wait around the corner as Thailand readies to replace the arrival PCR Test/Hotel Stay with a quick test at the airport in a few weeks time. https://loyaltylobby.com/2022/04/12/chaos-at-bangkok-airport-arrivals-area-leads-to-additional-counters-testing-requirement-possibly-be-eased-soon/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post mtls2005 Posted April 13, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2022 The photos and videos on social media highlight this issue, compounded pre-Songkhran by a high level of departures. IMO, they'd be better off requiring a pre-departure test, and doing away with any arrival tests, or SHA+ requirements. Deplane, clear arriving Immigration, fetch checked bags, clear Customs, get in a taxi (or other ground transpo) and go. The current system just wasn't built for ten + thousand daily arrivals. And you can't throw more people at it, there's no room. So restrict the input (Thai Pass), or streamline the arrival. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
