Just arrived at our hotel in Phuket (Marriott Merlin Beach) after a long but good trip from SFO to Singapore and on to Phuket. It was fast and easy when we arrived….out of the airport in 30 minutes. Very well organized….just make sure you have all the necessary paperwork.

Things seem pretty busy as we came from the airport….just hoping to get rid of the rain!

In terms of paperwork, do they expect you to print everything out that you had to give for the Thailand pass aswell?

yes, I've got my Thailand Pass, but haven't booked the hotel transfer or test yet. I've another month before I arrive and as requirements change almost daily so will wait a couple of weeks before booking the last 2 pieces of my puzzle.
