Hello!  Advice please.... heading over from uk, would like to visit different countries in SE Asia but cannot pin down a set itinerary in advance and would like to be able to stay a little longer in places that I like or move on if I want to.   Is it possible to buy a one way ticket into Thailand with a flight out of Thailand within 60 days and nothing further.   I would then purchase return ticket or onward ticket as and when I decide?  Any advice greatly appreciated.  👍😊

That’s going to be down to your airlines policy. Some may insist on an onward ticket. Some don’t seem to care.
