yes couldn’t agree more. I see lots of people on here moaning about “Thai pass” but it makes zero difference now that you only need insurance which you’d get even without a Thai pass. Glad your experience was good! People staying away are truly missing out!

I don’t know what to do tbh. It’s Thailand isn’t it… when it comes to money it’s take take take. I paid 6900 and now there is no test no food no pick up and no early check in. It’s 1500 for the same thing. I spoke briefly via email and they said I can now not check in at 9am which means I have to wait around for 6 hours. They have said no refund so god knows!
