how true. I have had problems at Manchester airport in the past. I was returning to Thailand and I had an O-A visa and a 12 month extension stamp and a re-entry permit. Because the original visa was expired and I didn’t have a flight out of Thailand he was going to refuse me travel. I stood my ground and spoke to his superior and after a phone call all was resolved. In this case it was an agent working on behalf of the airline and not the actual airline themselves.

A worrying thing that the check in staff didn’t know basic stamps in a passport.

repatriation flight back here, cost of 100K US dollars in covid insurance, cost of a 15 day stay at an approved thai gov't quarantine facility, cost of having a doc in the US sign off on a "fit-2-fly" certificate, cost of postage, gas etc getting all that paperwork done. Several people have cost it out down to the last satang (one of a baht ;) ) and they spent close to 3K US to get back all in when everything was all said and done.

My point was IF you're gonna do that, spend the 40 bucks and get a single entry tourist visa too :)

@Derek **********

the cost of required insurance, and your quarantine hotel cost, as you are still required to do 14 days in quarantine at your cost. There are no exceptions to these, and it will cost you about US$3000+, and that is with a cheap quarantine hotel.

I think that is now added to the initial 30 giving 45 in total. If from UK better move fast as Ministry of Health have asked to ban UK visitors and currently being discussed. Family of 4 brought in the new variant strain.
