There are no tickets for the entire route from America to Samui. My mother in law wants to visit but would have to take Qatar airways to Bangkok then take Bangkok airways to Samui. Is that okay?

Yes it’s getting everything ready that takes time and effort. I applied for myself yesterday and had to do it 3 times from the beginning. But today did my husband’s in 20 minutes first time. Bit of a learning curve with the IT for me but I’m a bit of an old fart now😂😂Steve **********
