At JQs MEL check in all documents checked , brand new staff so was very slow. They asked for insurance policy immediately after being told by the supervisor that a condition of obtaining the Thai Pass was proof of insurance.

So arrived in HKT nearly 2 hours late because of late departure from MEL.

As we approached immigration our documents were checked and then immigration was quick.
At the document check we were advised that the second test was no longer required and advised to take a photo of how to claim the refund.

Told would need to submit the results of a RAT by scanning a Q code on day 5. The RATs were sitting on the desk but not given out.

Collected bag and then diverted to the actual testing station outside the airport.

The person putting the sticks up my nose was basically sitting in a robot suit, the sticks seemed to probe my brain.

Was then sent to the area for my hotel's driver pick up. The cost was 800THB, My mate and I rode in the same vehicle.

Upon arrival temperature was taken and checked in, told to remain in room for 6 hours or until result provided.

Three days later no result provided.

No one seems to care, some places insist on masks being worn to enter, but basically spend your money.

My first visit to Phuket, not much open. Very quiet everywhere,
