LCJ,

From all acounts here, if you do NOT have a Visa in your passport, (ie you plan to get Visa-exempt entry) the airlines may refuse to allow you to board on the grounds that Thai Immigration may refuse you entry. In that case the airline may be stuck with you!

You either need a ticket OUT of Thailand within 30 days of entry OR a Visa. This is actually quite an old rule but it never used to be enforced - now apparently it is!

You need an onward ticket for travel to Thailand without a visa. Although immigration does not normally check this closely (they can and do on occasion) the airlines often do not allow travel without it.
