You should not have any problem with the flight number or date on your visa application.
Flights change and get cancelled often. Plans change.
Immigration is aware of this.
How can I successfully upload a photo for the Thai E-Visa that meets the size requirements?
Cliff

Try taking a screenshot.
Then send to yourself as an email.
I used Gmail.
Then choose the lowest resolution smallest data size.
What is the phenomenon known as 'rawdogging' that people are talking about during flights?

What are the experiences and challenges of entering Thailand as a tourist or visa-exempt traveler?
Cliff
*********
Look like a bum, get treated like one….
Try to look presentable.
Have all of your documents ready.
Have the 3 proofs available.
If you have been trying to live long term they will know it.
How can you best deal with jet lag when traveling to Thailand?
Cliff
*********
Different people’s biological clock adjust at different rates. Generally it’s 1 day per hour of time zone difference.
So from Los Angeles it’s 12+
***
=14-15 hours time zone difference.
I find it takes about a week to adjust to arriving in Thailand and about 2 weeks on returning to Los Angeles.
You can help your clock adjust by having a lot of daylight during the daytime of your new place and really limiting bright light at night time.
Also try to have a quiet place for sleeping.
Melatonin is the sleep hormone that adjusts the clock.
It is helpful to take it at your new bedtime.
Don’t push yourself too hard.
How can I apply for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) without using third-party services?
Cliff
*********
Look at the DTV Facebook page.
There will be many posts specifically about your situation.
How can I safely manage a bank account in Thailand if it's under my girlfriend's name?
Cliff
*********
Have her put her SIM card into your phone.
The bank staff will help you initialize the account and the app on your phone.
Then you can use the app and access the account for deposits and payments.
After initialization, you can put your SIM card back into her phone.
You will have your own account number and password.
This is what I am doing with Bangkok Bank and it has been very very convenient.
Banking is done with the phone carrier and is secure.
For safety from her….don’t leave a huge amount of money in the account.
Do I need to report to immigration if I travel to another province while on a retirement visa in Thailand?

your post suggests the TM30 24 hour registration is being enforced now and was not hardly enforced previously. What is the source ?
Something more than "They say"…..

This is certainly an unnerving situation.
