reader Posted October 15, 2021 Posted October 15, 2021 From The Thaiger Beleaguered national airline Thai Airways says they’re resuming full service on 36 foreign routes to destinations in Europe, Asia and Australia, many of which will resume from October 31. The implementation is in step with the Thai government’s commitment to reduce many of the impediments and restrictions to international arrivals from November 1. The decision was announced today by Thai Airways Executive Vice President for Commerce Non Kalinta. The massively expanded and updated schedule will operate as the airline’s winter flight plan, going into effect on October 31 and following the flight schedule until March 26, barring any unforeseen circumstances. The airline launched a set of flights planned specifically to support the Phuket Sandbox programme, as well as a wide range of flights hubbed in Bangkok, connecting the capital city with key locations throughout Asia, Australia, and Europe. Thai Airways will operate 7 routes to support the Phuket Sandbox, 19 across Asia – particularly Southeast Asia and South Asia – 9 to Europe, and 1 to Australia. They will fly to Sydney from Bangkok and return, with flights departing from Bangkok on Wednesdays and Sundays.

spoon Posted October 15, 2021 Posted October 15, 2021 I dont see malaysia in the list. Not surprising as our country is still shut off for other foreign tourists. Hope thatll change in the near future. Some states in malaysia are fully open now, with only restriction being 50% capacity for social events and social distancing/mask wearing in place. The rest are practically open. While malaysia also have allowed its citizen to travel overseas without any kind of approval, we still need to be quarantined when coming back, though the duration has been reduced to 7 days at home. Now please, open bangkok and pattaya, and ill be making plans lol. Otherwise, i might have to go to other places. reader 1 Quote
