Flying to/from Thailand, latest updates
I haven’t heard of an airline specifically demanding a PCR, only the destination country.

Best ask the airline but I agree with above.
I'm not bothering with the tests either way to the UK next month.

From Eva Air website..
In compliance with the regulations of destination country, you might need to provide the negative COVID-19 test result within the designated time frame prior to departure and/or COVID-19 vaccination certificate. You can click Travel Restrictions to check the latest information with regards to COVID-19 related entry regulations.

Yeah, read the website and it mentioned Taiwan where Eva is based. Just thought it may be another one of these 'Thailand requirements' for departure.

Re: Flying to/from Thailand, latest updates
I believe it depends on the rules applying to your destination

Re: Flying to/from Thailand, latest updates
I believe it's the responsibility of all airlines to ensure their passengers can legally enter the country of destination. If they don't check then there is a danger that the airline would have to fly the passenger back to the point of departure at the airline's cost.
Re: Thailand tourist slump continues
Eva flight 1st sept flight is full from U.K.
Re: Thailand tourist slump continues
With only two airlines flying direct, that is hardly surprising. Eve have 3 flights a week and Thai Air 11, at least that's the latest I can find.
Anyone have any updates on this?

Re: Flying to/from Thailand, latest updates
The last time I looked (at least 2 weeks ago) all prices were silly, both direct and via one of the Middle East hubs and can’t see it getting any better until al least the summer peak is over - but probably not until next year (we hope)!!
Re: Flying to/from Thailand, latest updates
I came back from Austria today with a fully occupied Airbus A380 (more than 500 passengers). To my surprise, the TM6 form was not required. I only read that they are thinking about it.

Eva now fly 5days a week from U.K.

Re: Flying to/from Thailand, latest updates
At the moment (Kids off school, Summer Vacations), prices from the UK at least will be silly season - add that to the strikes and living costs, who can lest who can afford to travel?! TBH, even if I could afford it or be able to travel, I wouldn't want to.Dannie Boy wrote: ↑Sun Jul 31, 2022 6:25 pm The last time I looked (at least 2 weeks ago) all prices were silly, both direct and via one of the Middle East hubs and can’t see it getting any better until al least the summer peak is over - but probably not until next year (we hope)!!
At what cost, availability or reliability (all cancelling flights)?

Re: Flying to/from Thailand, latest updates
TBH, it's going to be next September before we even consider things. Realistically, I'm not able to travel currently, BUT even if I was, from a couple of years past, we're looking at an additional £2 K plus on flights, massive hassle (strikes/delays/risk) etc. It's hardly the relaxing break we need!!Dannie Boy wrote: ↑Sun Jul 31, 2022 10:07 pm I just did a search and there are virtually no flights until late August - dep 21/8 ret 4/9 was £1590 economy!!

Yes, I had some friends looking for flights earlier today for next month. They took one look at the prices, and they're not coming
