TLDR : 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.

 no, not just financial support. Help with their physical and mental wellbeing too. Like I said, this will be a permanent move. Not just a few weeks

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...

 call the embassy and say your flights have changed, I think they need to unlock the COE unless they have changed the system.

 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

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.
