Many commenters express their concerns and frustrations about not being able to return to Thailand, with a consensus that the borders may remain closed for some time, possibly until next year.

thank you, but I would be afraid to try and be turned away. I usually travel with my son and his long time Thai lady. She just built a home at a mountain temple and she can’t get to it. Plus we can’t get flights much past our borders. Your very kind to make a suggestion. She is a Thai national with an American green card. Been here 25 years with frequent trips home. She can’t get in either.

funny thing I am an American woman with a Thai man and neither of us can get to each other. We’ve been engaged over a year. This whole state of affairs is difficult for many in different scenarios.

'Hopes' is about all you have. Unfortunately they're only letting in work permit holders, people with dependant Thai relatives and some students at the moment.
