Hello, I'm a vaccinated US citizen planning to arrive in Thailand in July. Should I fly into Phuket in hopes the mandatory quarantine is lifted by then? Then make my way to Bangkok, as it's my desired destination. I figured, if quarantine isn't lifted in Phuket by then, I'd have to pay the ASQ accommodation anyways in Bangkok. Only cost I'd lose is the transportation from Phuket to Bangkok. Thoughts?
