Chang_paarp Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Just don't go out side or travel on the roads. Stay in your resort and you will not have any trouble. If you do go outside, make sure you are correctly dressed, but keep of the main roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glasshock Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Recent events aside...... is it ever safe to go to Phuket anymore? Should be fine. Just use your nogin and stay away from the town, beach, hotel reception, lift loby etc..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glasshock Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Sorry ....just seen your request for genuine help and now feel like an arsehol_e! As if your going to listen to me now...... anyway, for what its worth, no one knows whats going to happen next...my advice? Dont let it disrupt you or make you alter your plans too much, unless you have a family that is, then you must think of others and not just yourself! I was straded at Phuket airport last year with my family. We were stuck at the airport with no flights out and the PAD wouldnt let us out.....uncomfortable for a while and the kids were soon bored..... dont worry, just use your CS.

LivinginKata Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Just to be clear. There is no disruption at Phuket at this time. It's perfectly safe to walk about Phuket, other than be assailed by the touts, tailors, pick pockets, etc. Other than last year's 2/3 day disruption at Phuket Airport, we have not been affected by coups, emergency power, and the like. Life continues serenly on Phuket Island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdubx Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 I'm in Kamala now, and things are pretty normal here. People walking around enjoying the beach and Songkran celebrations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is wrong with going on the roads? I was on the road today and it was fully of happy people celebrating Thai New Year!
