The discussion revolves around the experiences of expats re-entering Thailand during the pandemic, specifically regarding their visa situations and the challenges faced during the Alternative State Quarantine (ASQ). One commenter queries about the visa options available after receiving a 15-day extension, while another shares a personal account of the difficulties faced during a two-week ASQ in Phuket, including the impact on their health and work situation due to travel restrictions.

had basically exactly the same experience coming from London. The second week in ASQ is devastating and despite only eating salad and fruit I lumped on four KG in two weeks that's how stagnant the life in quarantine is, I'm used to being active all the time. My room had no window or any outside feedback it was murder for the second week. So glad to be back but now unable to work as my work is overseas and was 4 weeks on 4 weeks off. Even though the rotation has been changed to 3 months on and 3 months off I still can't rotate as per all the paperwork requirements it just cant be done.
Correct, no window. Room was very nice but no window also only an office chair to sit on so choice was sit on bed or hard chair at fixed table. Really needed a reclining chair. Only option to watch TV was sit on bed.
Renewed my visa last month got a in consideration 15 days extension was wondering on my next visit what sort of visa would I get would it be another in consideration extension or the real visa
