Transcript of the above video:

As the title of this video suggests, we are discussing "Is traveling to Thailand like traveling to space?" That sounds kind of like a silly question but the reason it came up is one of our staff brought it to my attention in one of the comments on one of the videos. Just to quote the comment directly: "Traveling to Thailand has become more difficult than traveling to space!" Then somebody else commented back and said, "It is like applying for a mortgage!"

Basically they were talking about there are a lot of hoops to jump through and it is not too far off. It is like almost a countdown when you think watching that movie "Apollo 13" for example, and where it is CAPCOM check, check, check, check. All the different sections of both the shuttle and the craft, and all the staff, the medical everything check, check, check. They have got to go through their checklist to get everything done.

There are a lot of hoops to jump through and check boxes that need to be checked associated with being able to get not only a Visa to Thailand but for example a Thailand Pass and then on top of that going ahead and just gaining access to Thailand; getting in and then kind of getting through presumptive quarantine and then once you are out of either the Phuket Sandbox or quarantine, yeah you are okay to go. Yeah, I do have to say and all joking aside, it is definitely a cumbersome process, very much so, especially when compared to times past.
