@Suwan ********

, depends on which hotel you book. You currently have to PRE PAY for 7 days.

@Bobby *******

, you are quarantined on the Island. You cannot leave. You just have a very big "room".

This talks about the Quarantine. I think the happy part is that it is less days than before.

The Sandbox schemes are different type of quarantine, and are not referenced directly.

Have you considered doing the Phuket Sandbox?

@Оливер ********

actually, once you figure out what you need to do, it is a pretty smooth process. Just set aside an hour uninterrupted to do it all.

It might have to be one of those "stay on the plane while the others disembark" deals.

You can Sandbox on some of the other islands besides Phuket.

Dec 25th depart from LHR

I have flown from LHR on Thai Airways 2 times since late October 2021. The first time, the flight was barely full. They fed you as usual, and gave alcohol during the first meal time, but no alcohol after. You stayed in the seat you were checked in to. Everyone was aware of people's space, which was easy to do when you had a whole row of 10 seats to yourself. But it was relaxed. It was a nice flight.

The 2nd flight, was jam packed, and there was no sense of any type of covid precautions being taken by most of the passengers. Many passengers were blatently ignoring any type of covid protocol, and about halfway through the flight, you got the sense that the Thai crew had given up trying to maintain order. I got off that flight thinking if anyone on that flight was heavy covid positive, we ALL were going to be. lol

I would doubt very much that would happen anytime soon.
