Bangkok: The Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand (CAAT) is advising passengers to keep a close watch on developments at the Thai-Cambodian border, urging travelers to check their flights and travel change rights due to ongoing unrest in the area.
According to Thai News Agency, CAAT is recommending that Thai citizens planning to travel between Thailand and Cambodia stay informed by following news and advisories from the Royal Thai Embassy in Phnom Penh. Passengers should confirm their flight details with airlines, as aircraft types may be adjusted to accommodate an increased demand for return trips to Thailand, particularly during peak travel periods.
Travelers with existing tickets are advised to directly contact their airlines if they wish to change their travel dates or times. It is important for passengers to confirm seat availability and understand any conditions related to making changes. Additionally, travelers are encouraged to have all necessary travel documents prepared to ensure a smooth journey and minimize congestion at airports.
In cases where passengers cannot reach the airport as planned, they should inquire about available relief measures from their airline or seek guidance from airline staff to take appropriate action. The Civil Aviation Authority emphasizes the importance of following updates from official sources to enable convenient and safe travel planning.
