Forum Rats and Keyboard Warriors: What’s Really Going On Here?
Hadn't been to Pattaya in a long while, decided to detour there on a trip back from Cambodia. Just riding into town on the minbus, looking out the window it hit me: "what the hell were you thinking?" -

Travel Bangkok Airport Chaos: Aussies Fume Over Qantas Passport Demand
I do not fully accept Qantas version of the story. Qantas is responsible for all the passengers if they overstay, and that means the fines and penalties. Thailand has a sliding scale of penalties, so the cost of a missing passenger could have been expensive.I have a feeling someone went along with a stupid suggestion from an immigration officer. This is not the usual procedure. Perhaps immigration did not want to process them in as a group, or someone thought this would simplify the management. Whoever did this should be reprimanded. As was stated above, the standard procedure is to stamp the passenger back in, and if need be, using the transit stamp allowing for a 24 hour stay. The passenger, unless a criminal or subject to deportation should retain control of the passport at all times. I wonder why passengers did not refuse and instead tell the airline they would go to the Hyatt or one of the many nearby hotels and sleep there. The airline was liable for the costs.
