blackshadow Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 A dream is a succession of images, ideas, emotions, and sensations that usually occur involuntarily in the mind during certain stages of sleep. Humans spend about two hours dreaming per night, and each dream lasts around 5 to 20 minutes, although the dreamer may perceive the dream as being much longer than this. so do these figures represent the above ????

Chiang Mai Will Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 Why doesn't an investigative reporter be tasked to interview 'whoever' at TAT and ask on what basis they made their prediction? Statistically, TAT must (surely) be working with a time-tested formula for predicting: the financial effect Covid has had on foreign economies; the financial effect Covid has had on foreigners; the situation in the Ukraine and the resultant economic spread to foreign countries; high cost of air travel; the cost of Covid insurance; [one can accept that TAT know this will be abolished on a near-future date] entry restrictions; [one can accept that TAT know these will be abolished on a near-future date] uncertainty on Thai tourist venues being open. Just wondering how they make their prediction! [I wonder who, in Government, believe this nonsense, who it is aimed at, and allow TAT to be run by incompetents!] 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalasin Jo Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 Well. In an email I received, for the first time, from Thai. News the government is still very wary and there is a long checklist which now includes monkey pox " screening". In all honesty I didn't find this very welcoming. As many have posted there are many other destinations for tourists without all this scrutiny...and of course it's summer and very pleasant in any European destination atm.

Stefanix Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 To increase tourist confidence, they think about issuing face masks at immigration, which report usage status over bluetooth and a mobile phone app to the CCSA. “Masks do not only protect against Covid, but also against breath odor”. With this new confidence building measure it is estimated to attract at least 100 million tourists. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your joking,they are checking for monkypox? Now i am not homophobic,my cousin is gay ,but the papers are even now puting it in the headline that its mainly a gay problem,so why check everyone? In fact i bet 99.9% of gay arrivals will not have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sambum Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 TAT expects xxx trillion tourists next week as the country has "totally" reopened from 1st June (but masks still mandatory in public places.)

sandyf Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 5 hours ago, jacko45k said: Yes, booking well in advance seems to be the only way around current high prices. Covid will possibly flare up in winter as does the flu, and hopefully be nothing more to worry about. Making predictions is what they do, likely all they do! Price is a bit irrelevant if you cannot fly, they will have to readjust shortly for the aviation problems in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ten minutes to register and about the same to get approval, £15 for insurance, cost you more to eat at the airport. What's the big deal.? BTW Who is Moore?

RafPinto Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 Update. URGENT TAT now reviewed latest figures and had a look at google and found out that the Indian population is over 1 Billion. Now, they expect that in 2022, at least 756,982.323 Indians will visit Thailand. Mostly single males and all wearing a gold necklace. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RafPinto Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 They can be lucky if they achieve 3 Million this year. Everywhere very high inflation. Airlines have to increase their tickets. People are struggling to pay their increased cost of food, electricity, fuel, ... Salary not going up. Who is thinking about a holiday in Thailand?

UK seems to have given up reporting Covid. It certainly does, I am in the UK now and can vouch for that, it is no different from the last time I was there about 3 years ago. It is never mentioned in the news, or amongst anyone I have spoken to. Edited June 4, 2022 by possum1931 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Hammer2021 Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 If it weren't for this forum I wouldn't know these figures - who reads them? Where do they get published originally? And why do they cause so much ire amongst forum members? I have NEVER heard TAT figures being discussed or causing anger in real life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blumpie Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 There will be pent up demand and a sudden surge, no doubt about it. Will it be ten million? Probably not. Of course a lot will have to do with entry requirements too. Once the initial surge is complete then it will drop again. We've seen this here and let me assure you, people get freaked out when they need to go home and need to test before getting on the plane. What I've heard is "Im not travelling again till this is over" time and time again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
