They arrived in two batches, via a chartered flight from Indonesia, and are staying at the Sri Panwa Hotel, according to authorities as reported by The Bangkok Post.
Under the scheme, these tourists are required to complete immigration and customs procedures before undergoing Covid-19 screening at the X-Terminal building inside the airport complex. Afterwards, they are conveyed to the hotel where they will serve the first five days of their 14-day quarantine within their room.
After that, they can make use of the facilities within the grounds of the hotel, according to Phuket’s deputy governor Pichet Panapong.
