How many nights do we need to stay in the Sandbox if we arrive in Phuket at 18:10?
We'll arrive at 18:10 in Phuket, do we need to stay 7 or 8 nights in the Sandbox? Thanks
Answer summary
If you arrive in Phuket at 18:10, you will need to stay for 8 nights in the Sandbox. The point of reference is the scheduled landing time; if your flight lands after 6pm, that landing time is considered as day zero, thus requiring a total of 8 nights.

Not sure what you mean by planned or real time confused me when you say that.
Planned is it when plane is scheduled to land.
Real is it actual time plane lands.
But think the time is taken from when you arrive at the health scrèening point where they check all the documents and put your information in to the computer.

its the SCHEDULED LANDING TIME at Phuket airport which determines it. If it's SCHEDULED to land before 6pm then it's day #1
If after 6pm... The next day is day #1

Before 6pm is day one, after 6pm is day zero.

Not sure, things have changed between ASQ and Sandbox. Previously in Bangkok ASQ it was arrival time at airport. But I believe in Sandbox its arrival time at hotel.Sebastian *******
