Is the visa exemption period for arriving in Thailand still 60 days or has it changed to 30 days?
Hi going to book a flight for monday arriveing from the UK to Thailand will it still be 60 days or is it down to 30 thanks
Answer summary
Currently, travelers arriving in Thailand from the UK will still receive a 60-day visa exemption. There has been no official announcement about a reduction to 30 days, and most comments suggest that this 60-day exemption is expected to remain in place for the foreseeable future.

Fuel prices and they are trying to recoup losses with less demand

Richard BroderickI remember watching a program the other day about fuel prices all the top airline companies carry about four months fuel in advance. They have a contract so they have to buy so much every month so what I’m trying to say is like in the program they’ve still got stock and I haven’t bought any new stock yet so why are they charging such high prices now? This was all on the TV?

I don't believe official announcement has been made yet, so if arriving next week, still 60 days.
Graham ******
60 for the foreseeable future

It's 60 days without a visa. Info on Thai embassy website.
