I think I stepped into an alternate universe today! I went for my 30 day visa tourist extension in Bangkok at the IT square mall in Lak Si…it was practically empty at 1:40pm. No line in the paperwork que, walked right up, and when I got my number there was only 9 people ahead of me! I was done in less than 1 hour with stamped passport back in hand! I was shocked! Miracles do exist!!!

Just got back from my 4th holiday in Thailand

Beautiful place

Can't wait to go back !!👍😊🙏

imm ……even the guard is so arrogant and terrible when you drive or bike inside the Chiangmai imm….for all Farangs…who bring money and pension to thailands….oh, welcome to smile Thailand……what’s your idea?

Everything else..

Is Mumbai airport BOM visa free for transit flying from Thailand to Europe?

There was an issue few years back so looking for recent experience.

TIA

Hi all,

How painful/not painful is doing a border bounce to Satun from Lanta? I was thinking of hiring a private driver and just going in and out on the same day and coming straight back to Lanta. Is that possible? I'm traveling on a Canadian passport. I entered Thailand for the first time two months ago by air to Bangkok, then extended at Lanta immigration after 30 days. Haven't been in the region in over 5 years because of Covid years. My plan would be to leave Lanta by 8am, get there around early afternoon, enter Malayisa, come back to Thailand and straight back to Lanta. Is that doable not too painfully? How busy does Satun get?

Thank you for any info!

Ok so booked a flight to Chang Mai with Nok. Supposed to fly at 1.05 pm and had a txt to say put back to 2.15 pm.

Ok you think a bit more time to get there. Arrived at the airport and was told at 12.15 our boarding time was 12.35 which I thought was strange as we would sit on the plane for a long time.

So quickly went through to gate and the kids with us bought some noodles. Within 3 minutes our names are called out at 12.45. Rushed onto the plane and told to throw away noodles because they can’t eat them on the plane.

Took off at 1pm

What a disappointment but thats Nok air. Check in girl had a blank look on her face when I showed her the txt. Screen for the flight said 2 pm take off.

Be careful when you fly out guys

Just done my first ever, and 100% last border run. Never ever ever again! Mini bus full to capacity. Two screaming toddlers, one using a potty, no air-con.

I just did a border bounce at Satun border South Thailand coming off the last Covid Extension in my passport. Used an agent and had no problems at all. Was getting asked a few questions until the officer spoke with my agent after which i was sent on my way. Whole process took 10/15 mins. Currently on the 7hr bus ride back to Phuket now

I know this is not a visa question but I will still ask.

This question is to the recent travelers only. Has anyone has any lost luggage issues? Where did you fly from? Please no naming of airlines, that I think would not be proper in this group.
