Does anyone know which airlines can fly into Thailand from the UK

Answer summary

Several airlines currently have permissions to operate passenger flights from the UK to Thailand. These include Thai Airways, EVA Air, Emirates, Etihad, Qatar Airways, Singapore Airlines, Lufthansa, Austrian Airlines, Swiss Air, KLM, Air France, and Cathay Pacific. However, due to COVID-19 restrictions, demand for flights is limited, and many airlines may not be regularly flying passengers at this time. Travelers should check with the respective airlines for their flight schedules and also consult local embassy guidelines regarding travel permissions and necessary documentation.

I have belief that they will change those rules soon November or so. If they want to save the tourist season. It's already bit late but if it's like this in December then they can forget about tourist. A all small business with tourist will be finally completely bankrupt a finished

ridiculous. The prices for ASQ alternative state quarantine are very high too. This special tourist visa scheme will only attract super wealthy Chinese and Korean type tourists.

It might be a good idea to wait for a few weeks as there is a plan to reduce the quarantine to 10 days - but this will not be confirmed yet until next month ! 🤷🏼‍♂️

ALWAYS check your local countries’ FOREIGN AFFAIRS website before booking or planning, including recent COVID-19 negative tests. Next: check Thaivisa.com website for up-to-date info in all sorts of visa. !!! Nobody guarantees anything, including if you paid for the trip so be very careful what you plan and decide.

Let me know how you get on Trev but it’s almost impossible just now from the Uk. Many airlines fly there but they ain’t carrying any passengers so the flights are all being cancelled. Unless you’re a thai National, you won’t get in

@Spencer ******

as someone who works in the industry and without getting into the fine details, it’s extremely difficult to travel to Thailand. Most of the flights from where I work are with a handful of passengers but loaded with cargo. That’s the reason you see a lot of “flights” on arrivals screens
