Going to Pattaya. Why bother?!?!
Video recorded early last evening (Sunday) showed Tree Town square a shadow of itself, with signs here and there warning customers they can only enter if they had a negative ATK test within 72 hours. Even the front of Tree Town was largely empty after darkness set in, as were the tables in the food court. Many bars were populated with staff only. Some (actual) restaurants closed shop until further notice or for a day or two to get staff tested and cleanse the facilities. And the mobile test setups were gone.
Buakhao "bars" were much emptier compared to days ago when they were heaving.
The Chonburi governor ordered the restrictions, with no end date mentioned. Here's The Pattaya News description of the orders, posted Jan. 2:

Re: Thailand Travel Restrictions and Info
Hmmm, is that what the warning said? Nice spin. Here's the forum warning, in full, you received through our system:
"Please, there is no need to bring Nazis and Covid up on EVERY topic. Thanks.
This is a warning regarding the following post made by you: viewtopic.php?f=26&p=528432#p528432 ."
You're a one-truck pony, so I don't think we'll miss you in our discussions. Take care!

Yep. Another video last night (Monday), taken mid-evening, shows lots of Tree Town activity compared to early evening in the previous video. Ministry of Public health officials and police are also shown starting their rounds, rousting customers from bars and making sure they close at 9 pm.Doc67 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 11, 2022 8:14 amIt is busier than I imagined it would be.ExPenhMan wrote: ↑Mon Jan 10, 2022 4:33 pm Going to Pattaya.

Overall, I'd say it's not exactly a convivial atmosphere. I also expect CCSA to extend the restrictions to month's end. It's even conceivable that infection friendly Omicron will push restrictions well into February. Alas.
I now have two friends with Omicron, mild symptoms. They're already getting better after only several days.

INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS
Travellers can transfer at Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport between international flights booked on the same ticket, when the transiting time does not exceed 24 hours. Passengers must not leave the transiting area and are not able to enter Thailand.
Please note that all required documents, including those in digital format, must be printed to be presented at check-in and to the relevant immigration authorities:
1. COVID test by RT-PCR method with a laboratory result indicating that COVID -19 is not detected, issued within 72 hours before departure
OR
A certificate of full vaccination against COVID-19 for more than 14 days before the travel date, with a vaccine approved by the World Health Organization or the Ministry of Public Health of Thailand
And,
2. Travel health insurance policy (worldwide or including Thailand) covering health care and treatment expenses for COVID-19, for no less than 50,000 USD. Please print the insurance certificate and all pages of the terms and conditions on the COVID coverage and medical benefits (passengers may be refused boarding if they can not show that their insurance meets these requirements)
I understand that all flights have to be on the same ticket. Is it acceptable if this is booked by a private travel agent?
Many thanks in advance!
Re: Thailand Travel Restrictions and Info
@Uncle-V yes, as long as they book the flights on a single booking
Re: Thailand Travel Restrictions and Info

Re: Thailand Travel Restrictions and Info
looks like its official now, so omicorn and thailand has basically ended the high season for 21/22 with new regulations an now a 300 baht fee, for entry ( at least it will be added to plane ticket so 99.9% wont even notice it) not sure how they will handle land crossings, once of course they open again.
https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-paci ... 022-01-12/Jan 12 (Reuters) - Thailand is planning to collect a 300 baht ($9) fee from foreign tourist from April to develop attractions and cover accident insurance for foreigners unable to pay costs themselves, senior officials said on Wednesday.
.....The new fee will be priced in with airline tickets and is part of the government's sustainable tourism plans, government spokesman Thanakorn Wangboonkongchana said.
