What is the experience of a 14-day quarantine in Thailand like?

Also you eat exclusively in your room and order from a set menu.

in February we will face an similar or more worse situation.

@Kat ****

if you can get bookings that match with flights thats big problem

@Harry *****

about 20 baht of food there I would say!

@Kat ****

I have time, sounds so sad😝

My work paid for it and in order to work here, it had to happen. I am very grateful to be here tbh.

My thai wife is back in thailand , she can not leave the room AT ALL , only for covid test , then back to the room , cannot order anything from outside , 3 meals a day supplied by hotel .

Most expensive ASQ is in Phuket at 220,000bt. The cheapest is 32,000bt but that is fully booked for about 2 months. Now averaging around 60-80,000bt.

@Lawrance *********

I dont know where you got that figure from. It is more like to baht everywhere I have looked.

You will be waiting much longer than 2021. try 2023 at best

@Ron ******

it’s a steal with the comped Internet

The Phuket ASQ entry is in Bangkok then its a bus to the hotels in Phuket.

@Ron ******

yeah except you can’t. There are no international flights to Phuket and you are not allowed to fly to Bangkok and then transit to Phuket to quarantine. If you have money you fly a private plane to Phuket then I guess the quarantine price for the hotel is no object either.

@Ron ******

brought tears to my eyes. 650,000 🤓

It's fine to hear most people tell it... I was saying all of that for the people saying what a shit holiday it would be to spend two weeks in quarantine. :)

To be clear... there is no tourism at this time... There is no consideration for holiday travelers, and there are no commercial scheduled flights in to Thailand. The quarantine is for repatriated Thais and foreigners that qualify with certain visa types. Thai people can take the free state quarantine, but all foreigners must pay for an approved alternate state quarantine hotel. These vary from 3 star to 5 star and include options to go really fancy in presidential suites or pool villas.

There is not currently any information for when flights will resume and tourists will be allowed in. There is also no indication when entry will be available without a mandatory quarantine. At this time, there is a substantial waiting list for Thais and eligible foreigners on the government coordinated repatriation flights.

@Nicedan *****

and no alcohol....

State quarantine is for Thai nationals as free, Alternative State Quarantine is for everyone else and and Thai national that doesn't want to stay at the State Quarantine accomodation. The cost includes room and food and may be but not sure the cost of covid testing.

There's plenty of videos on YouTube showing the rooms and procedures.

Ok this is mostly Bangkok, lol.

@Maxim **********

Some hotels might have been added, but it can give you a price range.

35k including everything? (food, etc). But so far I cannot just go out and come back on Visa Exempt right? (while being on quarantine).

@Maxim **********

32,000 to 103,000 I saw

@Maxim **********

your choice. From around 35,000 to 250,000 for the 15 days.

But as

@Stuart ********

said its a means to an end i would have slept in a tent and ate crusty cucumber sandwiches to get home

@Stuart ********

i was in anantara siam and food was amazing. A lot of the hotels have just opened up again and were out sourcing meals and they were crap

@Andrew *******
