Thailand update Update Tuesday 20 December 2011 Floods in Thailand Parts of Thailand have been flooded the past few weeks. Almost all the floods are over now. Only some parts of Bangkok are still flooded. The rest of of Thailand is flood free and normally accessible. Tour programs throughout Thailand are running normally. Skytrains, underground trains, taxis and public transportation are running normally. Express boats on the Chaophraya River have resumed their services. Some (not all) boat companies have resumed the dinner cruises. Bangkok's international airport Suvarnabhumi is operating on schedule. All international and domestic arrivals and departures are running according schedule. Also trains throughout Thailand are running normally again.Other travel advice We advise against all travel to the Preah Vihear temple in Sisaket province due to a border dispute between Thailand and Cambodia. We also advise against all but essential travel to Thailands three southernmost provinces Pattani, Yala and Narathiwat due to frequent bomb attacks and arson by muslem insurgents. These areas are far outside regular tourist destinations and most tourists will not go there anyway. Everywhere else in Thailand the situation is calm and normal. Traveling in Thailand is possible as usual. We recommend that you keep yourself informed about the situation in Thailand via the media.
