The last day you can apply for a COVID-19 extension is the "admitted to" stamp/ extension of stay valid until stamp that's in your passport, assuming it's still being sold on that date

It’s not only because of flights availability, one of the forms you have to submit together with COVID visa application states pandemic situation in home country as a valid reason to apply for it.

the amnesty since March was about physical inability to leave Thailand rather than how intense the pandemic is in other parts of the world

The OP would have no problem getting the extension of stay based on not being able to travel in December. I don't want to speculate on the future, however the Thai government has been letting people stay here on extension of stays because they can't travel since March, 2020. Reasonable people expect COVID-19 to get much worse in places like the United States (source:

If there are changes to the COVID-19 extension of stay policy, we will make an announcement about it.

Do you have specific info that it'll continue through December and into 2021 or just a hunch?

do you have an extension of stay based on employment (" the stamp") or a full page sticker ("the visa")
