I take my test on Wednesday at 12 midday

The results arrive on Thursday evening (lab only has the date and not the time on the certificate)

Collect Fit to Fly the following day on Friday,

Sorry for sounding a bit thick but its been a long week ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is inquiring whether they will meet the 72-hour deadline for their 'Fit to Fly' test before departing for Bangkok. They plan to take the test on Wednesday, receive results on Thursday evening, collect the certificate on Friday, and fly out Saturday, arriving in Bangkok on Sunday. Comments clarify that the 72-hour period is calculated from the time of the flight departure, not arrival, and that they should be within the limits based on their test schedule.
