TLDR : Answer Summary
The general consensus is to wait before buying airline tickets for travel to Thailand after October 15. Many community members express skepticism about the reopening timeline, citing ongoing concerns about COVID-19 and the uncertainty of actual travel restrictions. While reports suggest a possible reopening, many commenters advise caution, believing that full access may be delayed until next year or beyond.

Absolutely NOT.

DO NOT BUY AIRLINE TICKETS OR BOOK HOTEL ROOMS. Thailand is not reopening yet and when it does in months ahead it will include controls like seen in the Phuket sandbox in several locations.
