By THOMAS FULLERPublished: November 30, 2008 Associated Press.Foreign governments have grown increasingly impatient with the shut-down of the airports, which have stranded upwards of 100,000 travelers in Thailand. All air cargo, including international parcels and mail, has been suspended into Bangkok since last Wednesday, when Suvarnabhumi airport was besieged by protesters and shut down.

I don't think anything new will be coming in. What is being delivered had already arrived.

Hi there,

I went to the post office today to send a small parcel & was told it would be processed in Phuket & sent via Singapore for onward delivery, delays are expected...

That being said my outgoing parcel has been stuck at Survanabhumi for 3 days, so it looks like it is being affected after all =/ not good
