Can I book a connecting flight to Phuket on the same day as my arrival in Bangkok under the sandbox scheme?

I have a flight booked for Jan 29th to Bangkok.

I have everything booked for Test and Go.

“IF”, they change the quarantine requirements, can I book a connecting flight that same day to Phuket and do the sandbox scheme?

I am vaxed, and am happy to spend a week on the island rather then trapped in a hotel.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The original poster inquires about the possibility of booking a connecting flight from Bangkok to Phuket under the sandbox scheme, should quarantine requirements change. Multiple responses confirm that transit through Bangkok is not permitted and highlight that Bangkok is currently utilizing the sandbox model, suggesting that if quarantine measures are altered, it may still allow for the sandbox option in Bangkok itself.

Bangkok switched to sandbox on Nov 1 so it is possible that even if they shelf test and go it'll revert back to sandbox and NOT quarantine in bkk. But once again those who post don't know (yet) and those who know aren't posting

No transit in BKK

I’m also booked for the 29th. Flying into bkk and they do have Sandbox there. 🤷‍♂️

Reservations changed 16 times already.

yes I know they do. But who wants to quarantine more than one day:)

I agree. That’s one reason I’ve changed my reservations so many times. Decisions of change happen from your be day to the next.

From one day to the next!

You're not allowed to transit, must do where you arrive inside the country.
