In November, Thailand will open its doors to sun-hungry Danish tourists who have been vaccinated against coronavirus.
Denmark is one of 48 countries that from 1 November will have the opportunity to travel into the country. It was adopted on Thursday, the Thai Foreign Ministry wrote in a post on Facebook.
Australia, Norway, the United Kingdom, the USA and Germany, among others, are also on the list, and fully vaccinated travelers from here also escape the previous requirements for isolation on arrival.
All it takes is that one is fully vaccinated, can present a negative coronate test before departure and is willing to take a new coronate test on arrival in Thailand.
Thai Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha writes on Facebook that it is important to get the country reopened.
– If we wait until everything is completely ready, it will be too late. In addition, tourists may choose to travel elsewhere, he says according to the newspaper.
The relief for Danish travelers is really good news. That is the opinion of the travel company TUI, which will send its first flight to Thailand on 28 November.
– Thailand is a popular destination for our customers and important for our business, says Mikkel Hansen, Head of Communications at TUI, in a press release.
– Their destinations are important pieces in our winter program, and therefore we are happy that it will already be possible to send our guests there, he says.
The first planned flight from TUI lands on the island of Phuket in the southern part of the country, which like Krabi and Khao Lak is among the Danes’ most popular destinations in Thailand.
