Travel Updates – Thailand

Our ground operator in Thailand reports that business is as usual and both major Bangkok airports are open. Normal flight schedules have resumed for Thai Airways and most other international Airlines. Inbound flights are experiencing no problems at Suvarnabhumi International Airport and connecting inbound flights from both Bangkok Suvarnabhumi and Don Muang Airports are running freely.

Outbound flights are still experiencing a few issues however. There are still large numbers of people suffering from delayed flights out of the country. This has meant outbound flights have mainly been over-subscribed. This situation should ease as early as next week when it is expected that most outbound clients will have exited the country. Delayed tourists are staying in Thailand at the Thai government's expense for their hotel and subsistence.

Our representative also reports that the weather in Thailand is 29 degrees Celsius with clear skies. Life is going on as normal. “Looking out of my office window, I can see palm and fruit trees, Tuk-Tuks the hustle and bustle of Bangkok and the BTS (overland sky train) zooming past.”
