The Thai government may have successfully quelled the two month long violent protests by the Red Shirts, however the situation is going to remain somewhat grim and unpredictable for longer than one can imagine. The months long anarchy has left the country in ruins, especially its capital Bangkok which has been defaced and it would be a long time before the country comes back to grips with time. A country that has tourism as one of the key contributors to its GDP, Thailand has for long been and will continue to be deprived of the international travellers. The governments of most major countries had in wake of the Thai protests advised its citizens against travel to Thailand. Although the government machinery clamped down with brutal force resulting into the leaders of the protest movement finally surrendering, but the fact remains that Thailand is not the place to book your flights to, at least for some time. The worst seems to be over for Thailand. Still, if you have booked any Thailand flights from UK, then stick to the airline advisory and government notification regarding Thailand travel.On a positive note, it can be surmised that once the situation stabilises the tourism industry would put its best foot forward to make up for all the lost time. In fact, you may look forward to some of the best Thailand flights offers with the situation limping back to normal.
