Sorry for you mate. I was almost in the same boat with you. I flew to Bangkok with that Scoot flight you missed (TR 753 on 12th), and actually I almost decided to book with Lastminute because they offered the best price according to my search on Skyscanner. But I did a bit of search on google and found negative reviews and so I decided to spend a few more quids to book on the website of Scoot.

I would say the flying experience was awful for me. I am 1.9 metres tall and overweight and they gave me a middle seat despite my request for a window or aisle seat. I sat in the middle of two big guys. The dude who sits in front of me stored some of his shit under his seat, restricting my legs. He also reclined his back of the seat to maximum for most of the journey. You can imagine the nightmare. In the last hour of the trip I went to the toilet and found that nearly ALL the seats with additional leg room are EMPTY. The cabin service was not satifactory.

The price is really good but I don't think I will use this flight again. I have flown with other budget airlines and found them better.

And you can save that kit for future use when you really need a test

Morchana did not work at all for me last november

@Brian *******

Thanks for the recommendation. And I thought Sainsbury's is nothing more a supermarket.😆

@Stuart ********

I might not have put it very clear in the original post that what I asked was whether the treatement of Covid will be covered. I made some editions to make that more clear.

@Stuart ********

Thank you very much for the answer.

Phil Jones Well at least I am not those arseholes who overestimates the severity of the virus and advocates lockdowns and covid jails. I think these are absolutely too much. Just read my previous comments, I said that as long as you were covid-free before the flight, even if you catch the virus on the plane, you are very unlikely to test positive on arrival, and in the current policies you WILL BE A FREE MAN the next day EVEN IF YOU HAVE COVID.

Phil Jones This virus has similar fatality with a flu now. That's true, but it is based on so many provisions, such as: 1. Mass vaccination. 2. Many vulnerable people have died of the virus in the last two years. 3. some social prevention measures are still in place (like many people are still wearing masks). If we are missing these preconditions, the fatality rate would be much higher.

Also, the omicron BA.2 has already become the most contagious virus in the world (as contagious as the measles). It is far more contagious than seasonal flu.

Yes I agree that from an individual point of view, this virus is nothing dangerous because it is no more likely to kill you or make you seriously ill than a seasonal flu, but you still must think about the social influence of catching this virus-- the health care sector may be under pressure and

new variants may pop up if so many people are getting it.

It is now actually pretty conclusive that this virus is a nasty laboratory product. I would like to stay away from it as far as I can.

@Liam *******

That said. I think you are right in saying to be careful on the plane. This is a nasty virus and it is a good idea to avoid it as we can， especially on the plane where the risk is high

@Liam *******

In most cases, not until 24 hours after your exposure to the virus will you test positive. If you were covid-free before the journey and caught it on the plane, you are most likely tested negative on arrival and be a free man on the next day.
