TLDR : Answer Summary
Currently, Bangkok is not under strict lockdown, and flights into the city are still operational. While some services and venues may have temporary closures, airports remain open. Travelers are advised to stay updated on restrictions and ensure they have accommodations arranged, such as ASQ hotels, which provide transportation from the airport.

They are advising you not to travel and if you do there are a few areas and they are checking for masks and yes motorcycle helmets and that includes Thais

No lockdown yet but the Bangkok Governor has temporarily closed these places in Bangkok.

ask your hotel to make sure, but as long as Pattaya is taking ASQ Guest, they must transport them. They not allowed to let you alone just even a minute once you left the customs.

@ If you fly into Bangkok can you get a Asq hotel room in Pattaya That travel is included

@Michael *********
yes! Transport to ASQ is always included, because they won't let you alone a minute after you leave the plane.

>Are the lockdowns strict

There are *NO* lockdowns.

>lastly can you still fly into bkk if its on lockdown?

The airports are open as normal.

IF you are coming here for vacation, I highly recommend making other plans, I can see the government shutting everything down soon.

Bangkok is not on lockdown. Some venues/services are closed or restricted, but no lockdown
