I understand Ben. I'm from UK and my biggest concern would be getting robbed on my way to the airport

@Ben ******

it wouldn't be Thailand I'd be concerned about, it would be my home country.

@Han *******

I believe Kelly means, she didn't have to change the currency here and the hotel sort of saved it for her but, I could be wrong.

2 week holiday

@Brandon ***********

thanks Brandon. My sister is coming for a 2 week holiday. She's already on red alert ( lol) travelling on her own. I'm pretty sure carrying the equivalent to £500 UK will add an extra,burden for her. My sister will enter with a return flight ticket, an address to where she will stay in Isaan, with us. She's never been before, ever. I assume she'll get a straight through, but, will she.

@Brandon ***********

is that 20k thai baht, or equivalent in a foreign currency ? Is this for literally, everyone, even a short holiday. I personally have never had 20k on me on entering Thailand . Is it a last resort to stop someone for the 20k ?. From what I gather, the world will be cashless in the future, then , I assume it will change. I have a family relative arriving soon, I'm sure she would rather not carry that amount of cash, but, if it's a must, I'll tell her. Thanks for any info
