Welcome to #Thailand 🇹🇭 !! As many might know, it is not easy traveling to #Thailand in #2022. But... I'll be the first to say... it is SO worth it!! Loving my time in #Bangkok so far, and I cannot wait to explore the rest of this amazing country over the next 2 months.
In this #vlog, I'm traveling from Boston, USA to Thailand. Stay tuned (or fast forward) to the end of the #vlog for a #Q&A about everything you need to know to get into #Thailand with Thailand Pass. And good news! From February 1, Thailand Pass is back on! Cheers :)

Most insurance companies will not now cover you for mandated quarantine if you are tested positive but with NO symptoms; they will only cover the cost of quarantine if you are actually ill. And now you have to take 2 tests: Day 1 and Day 5. So, between Day 1 and Day 5 you could actually contract the virus and become incarcerated for 10 days at between $65 - $220 per night.

I arrived into Bangkok last Sunday & I can’t stress enough how relief I am being here after 2 years from my last visit. It’s been stressful for the past few months because the Thai government kept changing the travel restrictions meaning I had to change my flight dates but when they made new changes saying that we can isolate in hotels for 5 days I didn’t hesitate to reschedule my flight. I had my Thai covid pass application rejected twice but luckily my fiancée helped me as they’re really strict on certain criteria’s. Anyways glad it’s over and you know you’re home free once you collect your luggage & exit out of the arrivals area

I think it’s relatively easy, haven’t done it yet. You can extend in country, just need to go to an immigration office. Cost is 1900 baht. If you’re coming from US, you can do 30 days visa on arrival and extend when you’re here

It's very easy to extend once you're in Thailand, especially outside of Bangkok. However, I'm not sure what the policies are for NZ, I'm from USA so I would just look into that. If you are allowed to extend in country, it's very easy.

Thank you so much for providing this useful information. I have checked their webpage, but can not see that 'Seven Corners' have a trip delay coverage that will cover for hotel quarantine for none-US citizens. But they have a COVID-19 Treatment coverage that includes hospital and hotel expenses if a qualified treating physician authorizes them. The hotel expenses can be due to unavailability of a hospital room due to capacity or distance or to any other circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the insured person. But the person must be sick. I sent a query to 'Seven Corners' and learned that they do NOT cover hotel quarantine for non-US citizens.

If you test positive you have to go to a hospital(maybe public maybe private) or "hospitel" that is contracted with the sha hotel you chose. Pray to God your insurance covers that choice....also pray you are symptomatic most insurance will only cover you is have symptoms. If not expect to pay 10,000 baht per day at the hospital. Even if you are covered dont expect the hospital to do the paperwork. You front the money and have to get it back from the hospitals.

Once you cross immigration, you’re on your own until you exit the arrivals hall. SIM card kiosks are located next to baggage claim. Just buy one before you leave the arrivals hall. Congrats! Again, this is for Bangkok. Not sure if Phuket is different because you are tested at the airport in Phuket.

The ASQ hotel package just includes the first night at the hotel. I can’t remember the exact amount in Baht, but it was about $125US for the airport pickup, PCR test, ride to hotel, and first night in hotel.

What is the insurance company you purchase that cover hotel quarantine
@travelfareatlocal
@travelfareatlocal 2 жыл бұрын
So, for hotel quarantine I got a company called Seven Corners. Their trip delay coverage will cover up to $2000US for hotel quarantine. I’d also recommend local Thai insurance as well, since they’ll pay up front. The one I got is AXA
