No you can’t…

Currently before you leave the UK you need a “Certificate Of Entry” to enter ThaIland. This changes on 1st Nov to what they describe as a “Thailand Pass”.

To be granted either one of these you need proof of onward travel (ie. leave Thailand) within 30 days or a 60/90 day visa.

Agents can arrange the 60/90 day visa but it takes a couple of weeks and this is where I came unstuck.

All of the above requirements are in addition to numerous other requirements such as insurance, a T8 form and 3 PCR Covid tests!

 

Yes I know all this as I’m going 4th December and been watching the rules and based my initial stay on snandbox rules which expire Sunday night.
As the rules change on 1st nov you won’t need to do most of that other than a pcr on arrival. That’s a fact and C will be the test case for that when he’s there pal. 
 

then you can extend your visa as normal post 1st nov. 

 

anyway enjoy your trip when it arrives 👍🏼

  • There's a danger of reading stuff and believing too much. Here's my take. Get it booked with a travel agent that offers ABTA/ATOL protection. If it's cancelled by somebody other than you, you

We’ll agree to disagree on visa rules changing on 1st Nov.

You have a good hol too 👍🏿

Fingers crossed BKK & Patts are serving alcohol by December.

Phuket is the safer option and that’s where C is going…..

Patong is serving now seemingly but from 1/11 they are back open across the nation from what I can see. I held off booking a Bangkok stint until I saw that and booking my flight from Phuket to Bangkok 2 days ago. 
 

phuket is quality and as you say safer option as they are more advanced cos of sandbox etc. 

and make sure if he bangs any ladyboys we want a call the cops I’m off my chops style video posting on here pal 👍🏼😎

Restaurants may be earlier.

Aye they are supposed to be but bangla road plenty of bars open with signs in windows of the bars saying food served here. 
 

hopeuflly it just gets opened back up. Can’t see it not being so and will be done before 1/12 hopefully. But as long as 5/12 it’s all open and bevy flowing I’m ok

Is that massage place still there next door to Parrot Bar?

Just watched in awe as a BA staff member tried to explain to an Indian lady why she couldn’t check in as she hadn’t done all the necessary uploading etc pre flight. I queued for 25 mins and she was going though this for at least 20 of those minutes. Just kept pulling various poly pockets out of her numerous bags without muttering a word of the queens. Ended with the woman being escorted away. Not looking like she’s going anywhere.

It still never fails to amaze me how few people at an airport appear to have ever taken a flight before as they seemingly have no idea about what you need to check in. Add in COVID and fuck me, another layer of mouth-breathers who haven't read what documentation you need and think that they can stand at the check-in desk and moan about it.

Used to shock me the amount of idiots who didn't know children's passports only last 5 years and where disgusted when I said they couldn't travel 🙄

Just been speaking to the lad, keeping him up to date with our score. 

The travel process was thorough but efficient at all airports and the PCR result took 6 hours on arrival in Phuket after which we was free to leave the hotel.

Officially it’s 11PM bar closures but he’s found a couple of complexes unofficially open until 2AM tonight, so it’s starting to get back to normal.

Officially it’s 11PM bar closures but he’s already balls deep in a ladyboy tonight, so it’s starting to get back to normal.

Thanks for that but we went through an agent.

They did everything re hotels, Thai pass, health insurance & PCR’s etc for around an extra £30.

Thanks again.

BTW,  Patong is bouncing 😎
