The situation in Bangkok remains very much the same as we reported yesterday, despite some additional flooding in the north of the city.
Several hotels in the northern suburbs have experienced some flooding in the surrounding streets; however these hotels are not used by our clients.
Although these northern suburbs remain flooded, the centre of Bangkok, where the hotels, main tourist sites, shopping centres and nightlife areas are located, has not had any flooding. All services (such as power and water) continue to operate in these areas and both the skytrain and the subway are operating as normal.
Suvarnabhumi airport remains open as normal. We recommend clients to allow additional time at the airport for check in.
Don Muang airport has closed and the airlines which normally operate from this airport, Orient Thai Airlines and Nok Air, have relocated to Suvarnabhumi airport.
While there has been some flooding near the river at high tides, the main hotels located along the Chao Praya River continue to operate as normal and the hotel shuttle boats are now allowed to operate on the river as per their usual schedules.
We are not operating the Klong Tour and the dinner cruises, the museums and Vimanmek Mansion are currently closed. We are monitoring the other tourist sites and will amend itineraries accordingly.
