Otherwise over $30,000 in credit card points I accumulated during my lifetime would be taxable income. What else would you suggest? Is someone books Hilton using honor points would be a taxable income in Thailand? We've had the hypothetical/what if debate on this several times and it has never concluded, in the case of Thailand. BUT, it has concluded in the case of the UK where foreign credit card usage by non-doms is regarded as taxable imported income and the HMRC ruling on this was posted. It's important to separate the theory on this from what is likely to happen. Theoretically and technically, yes, those mileage points probably could be viewed as income. In practise they never will.

I'm going to check this with an acountant prior to leaving for 6.5 months next year. I am not that comfortable stashing that much cash in a Thai bank. Having said that, I did load up my bank account with cash before December 31, but I am very tight with taking any money out, so far maybe 10,000 baht this year.
