i'm gonna see you in today's update once the weather is better
so
good day everyone as you see it's not rainy season in thailand and it's raining almost every week and
today it's totally crazy so if you are coming soon to thailand bring your raincoat with you
last week i have updated you about the return of test and go and said thailand is back without
quarantine which many were complaining or arguing about the term no quran team and i will explain
to you what i meant by saying no quran team and also give you all the details that you should know
about this test and go and what kind of hotel packages that you should book to come to thailand
as i said last week the test and go is back but you should know that it will be available
starting from february 1. so many people text me and said they cannot apply it's not back no test
and go well i have said in the vlog starting from february 1 so please listen to the details before
you come into any misleading conclusions you can apply for the test and go starting from february 1
and yes everyone can apply for test and go so wherever you come from no matter which country
you can apply for it again check the thailand pass website starting from the end of this month
now here comes the term that many were arguing about it no quarantine and i say yes it's no
quarantine now you will say what about the two nights that people will stay in the hotel while
it's not staying two nights in the hotel or any kind of quarantine you have to take two pcr tests
and you have to wait your results in the hotel so 90 of the results will be in five to six hours
and you are free to go out now some are saying they have waited all day well my friends if you
arrive in the afternoon you might get your result in the morning so try to book your flights in a
way that you will arrive before midday and get your results as fast as it's possible
now concerning the second pcr result be at your book hotel at check in time
don't be late have your pcr test result and
most probably you will be enjoying the rest of your day after couple of hours
so guys in real quarantine you will not even walk outside your corridor that's why when official
website says thailand is back with no quran team they mean what i have just explained to
you and trust me i have done last year a 15 nights quarantine and these two days pcr test results and
waiting couple of hours is nothing even closer to quarantine i hope now this point is clear to you
now if you think that the test and go is the perfect way to enter thailand
well then i say it's the best way but not the perfect way because
it has lots of negative points that can be improved by time
the first thing is that you are having three pcr tests
in five days and you are vaccinated well i am with you not that much perfect but
they are taking the minimum risk i hope it will be improved soon
another thing is the second pcr test that is at the fifth day
well that's little bit annoying if not much because it's called test and go and
this way it's like test and go and come back it's the downside of this program
and it might get improved or removed soon but for the time being this is the only way
now beside all this you have to be vaccinated buy an insurance and download a tracking app on your
phone so all these things are obligatory i know it's not that much comfortable but again and again
this is for now and when we update you we are not telling you that it's the perfect time or
way to enter thailand but if you are ready to pass all this hustle then these are the rules
and we are happy to help you with the informations and update you
there were lots of questions about the hotel packages that people should book
especially about the fifth day i am going to make it simple for you concerning the first
day hotel should include a transportation from airport to the hotel and a pcr test at the hotel
the second hotel package at the fifth day should include one night with npcr test
you can book the same hotel or different hotels
or even different areas and provinces so i hope this point is clear too
if you are wondering about the prices of the hotel packages
they are ranging now between three thousand into four to five thousand baht on average you can
choose any hotel listed in the official thai pass website and it all depends on your budget
now extra expenses too many paperworks but trust me if you jump into all this you will
enjoy your vacation in thailand and everything is perfect here except that the nightlife is still
little bit slow so it's all up to your time budget and style you wanna travel now you can
you want to wait then wait but these are the rules for the time being
well my friends february is not far couple of days and we will see what will happen and how
much this test and go will attract tourists i will be visiting suvarnabhumi airport and
check if the action is back and update you and i hope there will be little bit action
and things can improve by time so never lose hope and negativity won't solve our problems
so guys as i said at the beginning of the vlog today was a rainy day
but now the sun is shining again so these rules and obligations could be little bit cloudy way
but i am sure things will be brighter again so let's hope for the best
