Is it time to start posting a new travel date? Is anyone else thinking about late November 2021? A few things need to fall into place, but I think it's a possibility. Thailand is not my only Asian destination, so other countries have to open back up for me, too.
Airline tickets are very affordable. I won't buy until Thailand opens up without quarantine. I don't want to deal with the hassle of cancelled flights or the nightmare of an airline going bankrupt.
I assume that getting vaccinated will be mandatory. I don't think it will be a problem to find one in the next 9 months.
9 months is a long time and anything can happen. Can Thailand vaccinate a decent percent of the population? Will the vaccine work with the new strains of the virus? Can the Thai people accept low levels of Covid without shutting everything down? Does the tourism industry have the political power to push a reopening? How much nightlife will be left if Thailand is shut down for another 9 months? Will new people buy the old leases and open something new or will the spaces be vacant?
