 In Cambodia there is not a sandbox offered, so the comparision does not apply.

It happens on every flight into Cambodia.

If one person on any flight tests positive, the whole flight is quarantined in a stipulated hotel for a minimum of 14 days, and pays for it (at $83 per day including meals, laundry, "medical surveillance" and "security services", plus $100 per test), taken from their mandatory $3,000 deposit for "Covid-19 service charges"  paid on arrival  -  not from their mandatory travel insurance.

 

If one person tests positive again, the 14 days re-starts for the entire flight, and so on.

A link that the hotel has to refund in full? Reported here in the regs? Reported where?

Reported in the article detailing the regs.

By the way, the ferang mug will have to pay the quarantine bill and claim it back later - good luck with that.

Not correct.  Mandatory policies pay the quarantine bill, not including anything not covered.

You state the whole flight is tested. They are on arrival, and later when they find one person, supposed infected according to them, the whole flight has to be testedc again. 

The whole flight is tested on arrival. 

 

If one person tests positive, the whole flight is NOT tested again, apart from the routine tests made regardless of whether anyone tests positive or not . This has never happened on any flights, international or domestic, didn't happen on a recent flight into Phuket when a passenger tested positive, and is a complete fabrication.

 

Some in neighbouring seats may be tested again, as happened recently, at government expense, but that's all.

Nice income for the Thais right?

Since it doesn't happen and everything you've said on the supposed "scams" is very easily verified as completely untrue, 'wrong'.

A Thai scamming racket . . .

The only "scamming racket" would seem to be your comments on your imaginary "scams".

As has just been reported ……. Sandbox tourist tested positive with Covid. Other tourists in the same group had been placed in 14-day quarantine at a hotel provided by the province for observation and Covid-19 testing.

And it will be all down hill from here. Questions will be, how good is that tracking that is mandatory?

Who honestly thought it would go any other way?

And there goes your vacation. A worse case outcome. It’s understood and accepted if you come down with Covid it’s off to quarantine with you. However if someone around you does it’s off to quarantine for you too. At this point in time, it’s too much risk for too little reward (In my opinion).
