Will I need to apply for a new Certificate of Entry (C.O.E) after my flight from Manchester to Bangkok is cancelled?
HELP!!! My flights just been cancelled from Manchester to Bangkok cos no flights to Dubai now?! If I get new flights will I have to apply for new C.O.E? I think I know the answer but I got a lot to sort out before Monday 🥴
Answer summary
The original poster's flight from Manchester to Bangkok was cancelled, and they inquired whether a new Certificate of Entry (C.O.E) would need to be applied for if they book new flights. Several comments suggested that changes to the C.O.E can typically be made online, and that they should inform the embassy of their situation. Some respondents recommended booking with certain airlines like Qatar Airways for better chances of getting to Bangkok. It was advised to check with the embassy on the specific procedures to follow regarding the C.O.E changes to avoid issues at check-in.

You can contact the embassy and tell them about the flight cancellation. Usually you can just modify the dates of your flight as soon as you get the new flight confirmed. If there is no definite new flight date then, yes you may have to apply for a new COE but best is you register your concern with the embassy who issued your COE because they might have a time frame to let you to hold on to this COE until you can confirm a new date to travel. Good luck !!😇❤️🙏😊

Flying out for financial support. Paypal? Western Union? Next is going to come the fact of no bank account. I'm glad I'm not your family bro but we all do it different.

OPAnyhow, I'm not going to get into details. But take it from me, it is I very necessary trip. I intend to change visas and stay long term. Zoom just wont cut this I'm afraid. Only real human contact and love

Whilst I fully understand the emotional pull, you might be better off - and certainly financially better off - transferring money and monitoring with Zoom. ASQ/COE/Neg Tests/Flights/Travel will leave a deep hole...
Daniel *******
OP@Paulie ********
the hole is already made.. plus extra flights paid for today. Family comes first. I have to make this tripDaniel *******
OPLike I said, I'm flying for compassionate reasons. My family are stuck out in Ko lanta, suffering with ill health and no income for 10 months with small children. I'm flying out to provide support and financial help to my family

OPI am flying for compassionate reasons.. so really need to sort ASAP! Thanks for the help so far. How do you change details on C.O.E?
Richard ******
@Daniel ******
call the embassy and say your flights have changed, I think they need to unlock the COE unless they have changed the system.

Stay home for a few more weeks then arrange your trip once things have settled down.

you are aware the UK government are banning holidays abroad only essential travel with consent and documentation required.George Orwell was right
Graeme **********
@Jon *******
Australia has the same restrictions in place. So yeh, I’m aware of what’s happening in the UKMarc ********
@Graeme *********
It will not "settle down" in a few weeks🤦♂️Graeme **********
@Marc *******
how do you know Marc ********
@Graeme *********
thank you Sir I wish you the sameGraeme **********
@Marc *******
I’m not looking for an argument, so good night, sleep tight and wake up happy tomorrow.Marc ********
@Graeme *********
yeah as a matter of a fact you decided to give an "answer" that was totally not asked for and therefor is pointless AFHe wants to travel and it is nobodies elses business period
Graeme **********
@Marc *******
correct and we will. However my response was a general answer to a question. Rather than say a couple of weeks, I suggested a few weeks. And there is no set time frame for a few weeks. But, I wouldn’t say a few weeks would be infinite. I’m a glass half full person and prefer optimism to pessimism Marc ********
@Graeme *********
because the whole world will have to deal with Covid for much longer than a few weeks before it will "settle down". Months if not years🤦♂️
Tom ***********
Book with thai airways. They are the safest bet
Ashley ********
@Tom **********
Thai airways flies once a week and yes it is a safe bet 
Carlo **********
Don't go.
Alessio *******
Must change date and flight number on COE . Same things happen to me they refuse me at check in
Valerie **********
You can change the COE online. Qatar has a great relationship with Thailand. I use them and feel they are the best. The6 come in through Doha. Best if luck.
