TLDR : Answer Summary
The user inquired whether having a round trip airfare for 70 days in Thailand would pose any issues, especially considering planned travels to Vietnam and Cambodia. Comments suggest that as long as travelers have an entry and exit plan, issues are unlikely. However, providing proof of accommodation in Cambodia could strengthen their case. One commenter also asked about the type of visa required for entry into Thailand.

ok. So you will enter 60-day Visa Exempt meaning no Visa. You will need travel out of Thailand within 60 days or your airline might not allow you to board.

If you are coming Thailand then Travelling out and back in then shouldn't be a problem. Perhaps book a hotel in Cambodia and show that as evidence

if he's travelling to Thailand without a Visa then there's a real need for onward travel. Airlines have been told by the Thai Govt to check.
