This is last night's message from the Australian Ambassador, from about 4:00 on he talks of the compassionate grounds application. As he's getting info straight from the Thai government this may be of interest to anyone looking at this avenue to return to Thailand

Your wife needs to reg with Thai Emb for a special flight by govt (550Pounds plus compulsory quarantine you may have to pay for)or wait with you until Thailand is opened for biz.

I hope things go as planned. State Q options are dotted around BKK and Pattaya. The govt choose for you. Sometimes you need to pay bet 37k-70kBHT per room. My neice was back from Canada and sent to a hotel near Bkk.Bell *******
